ADJUST THE OVEN BURNER AIR
SHUTTER IF NECESSARY
For Natural Gas:
The oven burner flame should be a
clean, blue flame with distinct inner
cones approximately 1/2 inch long.
A soft, lazy flame with indistinct cones
means too much gas or not enough air.
A noisy lifting flame means too much air.

IF THE RANGE HAS ELECTRIC
IGNITION
There are separate ignition devices for
the left and right hand surface burners.
Both of these ignitors are ON when any
knob is turned to the LITE setting. The
ignitors will spark as long as any of the
top burner knobs are at the LITE setting.
In the event of an electrical power
failure, the top burners can still be used.
To light a burner, hold a lit kitchen match
adjacent to the top burner to be used and
turn valve knob to LITE. USE EXTREME
CAUTION.
