BURNER IGNITION
Cooktop Spark Ignition—When you turn
the cooktop knob to LITE, the spark igniter
makes a series of electric sparks (ticking
sounds) which light the burner.
During a power failure, the burners will
not light automatically. In an emergency,
a cooktop burner may be lit with a match
by following the steps below.
WARNING:
Lighting gas burners
with a match is dangerous. You should
match light the cooktop burners only in
an emergency.
Light a match and hold the flame near
the burner you want to light. Wooden
matches work best.
Push in and turn the control knob slowly.
Be sure you are turning the correct knob
for the burner you are lighting.
NOTE:
If the burner does not light within five
seconds, turn the knob off and wait one minute
before trying again.
