30" GAS RANGE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
(For Models with Sealed Top Burners)
8. Electric Ignition Surface Burners
Operation of electric igniters should be checked after
range and supply line connectors have been carefully
checked for leaks and range has been connected to
electric power. To check for proper lighting, push in and
turn a surface burner knob to the LITE position. You will
hear the igniter sparking. The surface burner should light
when gas is available to the top burner. Each burner
should light within four (4) seconds in normal operation
after air has been purged from supply lines. Visually
check that burner has lit. Once the burner lights, the
control knob should be rotated out of the LITE position.
There are separate ignition devices for each burner. Try
each knob separately until all burner valves have been
checked.
Note:
Knob styles may vary from those pictured above.
9. Adjust the "LOW" Setting of Surface
Burner Valve
(Linear Flow and Three Position
Valves Only):
a) Turn control to LITE until burner ignites.
b) Quickly turn knob to LOWEST POSITION.
c) If burner goes out, readjust valve as follows:
Reset control to OFF. Remove the surface burner control
knob, insert a thin-bladed screw driver into the hollow
valve stem and engage the slotted screw inside. Flame
size can be increased or decreased with the turn of the
screw. Adjust flame until you can quickly turn knob from
LITE to LOWEST POSITION without extinguishing the
flame. Flame should be as small as possible without
going out.
Note:
Air mixture adjustment is not required on surface
burners.
Operation of Oven Burners and
Oven Adjustments
10. Electric Ignition Burners
Operation of electric igniters should be checked after
range and supply line connectors have been carefully
checked for leaks and range has been connected to
electric power.
The oven burner is equipped with an electric control
system as well as an electric oven burner igniter. If your
model is equipped with a waist-high broil burner, it will
also have an electric burner igniter. These control
systems require no adjustment. When the oven is set to
operate, current will flow to the igniter. It will "glow"
similar to a light bulb. When the igniter has reached a
temperature sufficient to ignite gas, the electrically
controlled oven valve will open and flame will appear at
the oven burner. There is a time lapse from 30 to 60
seconds after the thermostat is turned ON before the
flame appears at the oven burner. When the oven
reaches the dial setting, the glowing igniter will go off.
The burner flame will go "out" in 20 to 30 seconds after
the igniter goes "OFF." To maintain any given oven
temperature, this cycle will continue as long as the dial
(or display) is set to operate.
After removing all packing materials and literature from
the oven:
a) Set oven to BAKE at 300ºF. See Owner's Guide for
operating instructions.
b) Within 60 seconds the oven burner should ignite.
Check for proper flame, and allow the burner to
cycle once. Reset controls to off.
c) If your model is equipped with a waist-high broiler,
set oven to BROIL. See Owner's Guide for operating
instructions.
d) Within 60 seconds the broil burner should ignite.
Check for proper flame. Reset controls to off.
