Your range comes with electric ignitors. Electric
ignitors automatically light the burners each time
you turn the control knobs to LIGHT.
Using the control knobs
•
Push in
the control knob and turn it
counter-
clockwise
to the
LIGHT position. The
clicking sound is the
ignitor sparking. Make
sure the burner has lit.
•
To stop the clicking
sound after the burner
lights,
turn the control
knob to the cook setting
you want. The control
knob has two cook
settings. However, you can set the control knob
anywhere between HIGH and LOW.
NOTE:
All four electric ignitors will click at the same
time. However, the burner with the control knob
turned to LIGHT is the one that will ignite.
