Electric Ignition
The oven burner and broil burner are lit by electric
ignition.
To light either burner, press the pad for
the desired function and press the
INCREASE
or
DECREASE
pad until the
desired temperature is displayed. The
burner should ignite within 30–90
seconds.
After the oven reaches the selected
temperature, the burner cycles—off
completely, then on with a full flame—to
keep the oven temperature controlled.
Power Outage
CAUTION:
Do not make any attempt to operate
the electric ignition oven during an electrical
power outage.
Neither the oven nor the broiler can be lit
during an electrical power outage. Gas
will not flow unless the glow bar is hot.
If the oven is in use when a power outage
occurs, the oven burner shuts off and
cannot be re-lit until power is restored.
Using the oven.
To avoid possible burns, place the shelves in the desired position before you turn the oven on.
Before you begin…
The shelves have stop-locks, so that when
placed correctly on the supports, they will
stop before coming completely out, and
will not tilt.
When placing and removing cookware,
pull the shelf out to the bump on the
shelf support.
To remove a shelf,
pull it toward you, tilt
the front end up and pull it out.
To replace,
place the end of the shelf
(stop-locks) on the support, tilt up the
front and push the shelf in.
The oven has 4 shelf positions.
Oven Vent
Your oven is vented through ducts at the
rear of the range. Do not block these
ducts when cooking in the oven—it is
important that the flow of hot air from
the oven and fresh air to the oven burner
be uninterrupted. Avoid touching the
vent openings or nearby surfaces during
oven or broiler operation—they may
become hot.
■
Vent openings and nearby surfaces may
become hot. Do not touch them.
■
Handles of pots and pans on the cooktop may
become hot if left too close to the vent.
■
Do not leave plastic items on the cooktop—
they may melt if left too close to the vent.
■
Do not leave any items on the cooktop. The hot
air from the vent may ignite flammable items
and will increase pressure in closed containers,
which may cause them to burst.
■
Metal items will become very hot if they are
left on the cooktop, and could cause burns.
Plastic items on the cooktop may
melt if left too close to the vent.
