INITIAL PILOT LIGHTING
D. STANDARD OVEN
Pilot gas is tapped from the main burner manifold pipe, routed through tubing to a pilot safety valve,
and then to the pilot burner. Gas flow is controlled by the safety valve.
Oven pilot lighting or relighting is to be completed in the following sequence:
(1) Turn the oven thermostat knob to "off"and wait 5minutes.
(2) Remove the oven's lower kick plate by lifting up and out. This exposes the pilot safety valve and
the igniter button.
(3) Make sure any accumulate gas has dispersed. Since propane gas is heavier than air, check
near the floor area for the odor of propane gas before attempting to light any pilot burners.
(4) Depress the red button on the safety valve and hold it in throughout the lighting procedure.
(5) Press the red button of the pilot igniter, and you should hear a snap and see a spark at the pilot
burner
head.
(6) Continue to depress the safety valve button until the pilot remains lit when released.
(7) If pilot is extinguished, repeat steps 4 through 6 above.
(8) Turn the oven thermostat knob "on"and set to desired temperature setting, watch to make sure
the oven burner ignites from the pilot and that there are no yellow flames from the burner.
(9) Turn the oven thermostat to "off" and replace the lower kick plate.
NOTE
: It may be necessary to relight the pilot several times until the lines are purged of any
trapped air and a constant gas flow is attained.
