Testing top burners
1
Test the burner ignition.
Push in on a burner knob, then turn it counter-clockwise to the flame symbol. The igniter/spark module produces a
clicking sound. After the air has been purged from the supply lines, the burner should light within six seconds.
2
Test the high flame setting.
Turn a burner on to
HI
. The flame may burn yellow for a few seconds, then it should turn blue. If the burner continues
to burn mostly or completely yellow, see Burner flames are unusually large and yellow on page 31 or contact a
qualified service technician.
3
Test the low flame setting.
Turn a burner on to
LOW
. Make sure that the flame completely surrounds the burner. There should be a flame at the
burner port and no air gap between the flame and the burner. If the burner does not carry over, see Flames do not burn
all around the burner cap on page 31 or contact a qualified service technician.
4
Repeat these steps to test each burner.
Testing the oven burner
1
Test the bake burner ignition.
While pressing in on the oven control knob, turn it counter-clock wise to the flame symbol. Do not release the knob.
The electrode clicks and the pilot burner ignites. You can see the pilot flame through the holes on the bottom of the
oven.
Keep pushing the control knob on the flame symbol position until the flame is lit and stable. Depending on the length
of the pipe, you may need to keep pushing for one to five minutes until the gas pushes the air out of the pipe.
2
Test the bake burner flame.
While the burner is lit, turn the control knob to each temperature and inspect the flame. If the flame is completely or
mostly yellow, make sure that the regulator is set for the correct fuel, then retest.
Before you begin using your range
Before turning on the burners or oven:
• Remove all packaging materials.
• Wipe the surfaces of your range with a damp cloth or sponge, then dry with a clean, dry cloth.
When you turn on a burner or the oven for the first time, smoke and odors may be emitted. This is normal. Make sure that
the room is well ventilated.
Tips for saving gas
• Use dark-colored or enamel-coated cookware in the oven because the heat transmission is better.
• Before cooking, preheat the oven if the recipe calls for preheating.
• Do not open the oven door during cooking.
• Try to cook more than one dish in the oven at the same time whenever possible.
• If you plan to cook more than one dish, cook them one after another. The oven will already be hot.
• Defrost frozen dishes before cooking them.
• Use pots and pans with covers for cooking.
• Select the burner that most closely matches the size of the bottom of the pot you are using. Always select the correct
pot size for your dishes. Larger pots require more gas.
Note:
You can see the flame through the holes in the bottom of the oven.
Note:
Some yellow streaking is normal during initial start-up. Let the oven operate for four to five minutes, then re-evaluate before
making adjustments. If the flame is still yellow, contact a qualified service technician.
CAUTION:
Do not use harsh detergents, scouring powder, or any sharp objects to clean your range. These items can damage the
surfaces of the range.
WARNINGS: Hot surfaces may cause burns.
• Do not touch any hot surface on your range. Use oven gloves or potholders.
• Do not let children near your range.
