15.

Push in and turn each surface unit 

control knob to “LIGHT” position. The flame
should light within 4 seconds. Turn control
knob to “HIGH” position after burner lights.

Check each cooktop burner for
proper flame.

The small inner

cone should have a very distinct
blue flame 1/4" to 1/2" long. The
outer cone is not as distinct as
the inner cone. 

Electronic ignition system 

Cooktop and oven burners use electronic
ignitors in place of standing pilots. When a
cooktop control knob is turned to the “LIGHT”
position, the system creates a spark to light the
burner. This sparking continues until the
control knob is turned to the desired setting.

When the oven control is turned to the desired
setting, a hot surface ignitor heats to a bright
orange and ignites the gas. No sparking occurs
and the glow bar remains on while the burner
operates.

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.

18.

Check the oven burner 

for proper flame. 

The flame should

be 1/2" long, with inner cone of
bluish-green, and outer mantle of
dark blue, and should be clean and
soft in character. No yellow tips,
blowing or lifting of flame should occur. 

If

burner does not light, check that the regulator
shutoff valve is in the “on” position (see Step
11).

If oven flame needs adjusting:

Locate the air shutter next to the pressure
regulator. Loosen screw and adjust the air
shutter until the proper flame appears. Tighten
screw.
