6.

When the flame has been properly adjusted, turn the oven off,
wait for the burner to cool down. 

7.

Tighten the shutter screw.

8.

Reinstall flame spreader and oven tray. Reinstall the oven
racks and close oven door. 

9.

Close the broiler door.

Check Operation of Oven/Broil Burner

1.

Open broiler door.

2.

Push in and turn the oven control knob to “350˚F.” The oven
pilot should now be larger with the flame burning against a
small metal bulb. The oven burner should light in 20–40
seconds; this delay is normal. The oven valve requires a
certain time before it will open and allow gas to flow.

To avoid damaging the hot surface ignitor, do not insert any
object into the openings of the protective shield that
surrounds the ignitor or clean that area.

3.

Check the oven burner for proper flame. The flame should be

¹⁄₂

" (13 mm) long, with inner cone of bluish-green, and outer

mantle of dark blue, and should be clean and soft in
character. No yellow tips (not enough air), blowing or lifting
(too much air) of flame should occur.

If the flame needs adjusting:

1.

Turn the oven off. Wait for the oven burner to cool down.

2.

Open oven door and remove oven racks, oven tray, flame
spreader and set aside.

3.

Locate the air shutter near the rear wall of oven and loosen
the shutter screw.

4.

Adjust the air shutter. 

5.

Turn the oven back on and check for proper flame. If the
flame is still not properly adjusted, turn the oven off, wait for
the oven burner to cool down and repeat step 4 until flame is
properly adjusted.

Complete Installation

1.

Check to be sure all parts are now installed. If there is an
extra part, go back through the steps to see which step was
skipped.

2.

Check to be sure you have all of your tools.

3.

Dispose of/recycle all packaging materials.

4.

Check to be sure the range is level. See “Level Range.”

5.

Use a mild solution of liquid household cleaner and warm
water to remove waxy residue caused by protective shipping
material. Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth. 

6.

For range use and cleaning, read the range Use and Care
Guide.

7.

Turn on surface burners and oven. 

If range does not operate, check the following:

Household fuse is intact and tight; or circuit breaker has not
tripped.

Range is plugged in to a grounded 3 prong outlet.

Electrical supply is connected.

See “Troubleshooting” in your Use and Care Guide.

When the range has been on for 5 minutes, feel for heat. If
you do not feel heat, turn the range off and check to see that
the gas supply line shutoff valve is open.

If the gas supply line shutoff valve is closed, open it, then
repeat the 5-minute test as outlined above.

If the gas supply line shutoff valve is open, contact a
qualified technician.
