Replacing Interior Oven Lights
CAUTION: DISCONNECT THE ELECTRIC POWER AT THE MAIN
FUSE OR CIRCUIT BREAKER BEFORE REPLACING BULB.
1. Unscrew glass light cover.
2. Use an oven mitt during bulb
removal to protect your hand in
case the bulb breaks.
3. Replace the bulb with a 120 volt,
40-watt appliance bulb.
4. Replace the light cover
5. Reconnect power at the main fuse
or circuit breaker.
Power Failure
If power failure occurs, the electric ignitors will not work. The range
surface burners can still be used, but only when the burners are lit
manually with a match. The griddle cannot be used at all. Do not
attempt to operate the oven. Make sure the oven control is in the
“OFF” position.
Due to safety considerations
and the possibility of personal injury in
attempting to light and extinguish the burner, the grill should, not
under any circumstances, be used during a power failure. The grill
burner control should always remain in the “OFF” position during a
power failure.
Momentary power failure can occur unnoticed. The range is affected
only when the power is interrupted. When it comes back on, the range
will function properly without any adjustments. A “brown-out” may or
may not affect range operation, depending on how severe the power
loss is.
If the range is in the self-clean cycle when the power failure occurs,
wait until power is restored and allow door to unlock automatically.
Turn all controls off and restart self-clean cycle again, according to
instructions.
