OPERATING THE GAS OVEN
The gas oven is equipped with a gas thermostat. Its purpose is to keep the temperature at a
constant heat. The oven is fitted with electronic spark ignition and a safety shut off device.
Lighting the Oven
First open the oven door and remove the grill tray. Leave the grill tray out when operating the
oven as it can affect oven performance unless there is a special requirement to have the tray
under the cooking.
Press the oven control knob and rotate anti-clockwise to the maximum heating position. The
electronic ignition is activated automatically when the knob is depressed.
Keep the knob depressed for about 15 seconds after the flame has lit. Always view the burner
during lighting the procedure for safety. There is a hole in the bottom panel of the oven to allow
the viewing the burner.
Ignition Malfunction
In case of ignition malfunction or electricity failure depress and turn the oven knob in an anti-
clockwise direction to reach the maximum heating positioning.
Light a match and place it near the hole in the base panel, keep the knob depressed. Once the
burner is lit keep the knob depressed for 10 to 15 sec.
NOTE:
When lighting the oven for the first time if the electronic ignition fails to light the oven, light the
oven manually and run the oven in by operating it at 200 degrees for 20 minutes. This will re-
move any moisture that may have built up in the electronic ignition. After the cooker cools down
try the electronic ignition again.
