ELECTRIC IGNITION - BAKE BURNER WITH
ELECTRIC GLOW BAR
a. The bake burner is equipped with an electric control
system as well as an electric oven burner ignitor
(figure 2), This control system requires NO
adjustment. To operate, turn thermostat knob to any
temperature setting or to broil. Current will flow to the
ignitor. It will “glow” similar to a light bulb. (This glow
may be reflected into the oven through the openings in
the oven bottom). When the ignitor has reached a
temperature sufficient to ignite gas, the electrically
controlled oven valve will open and flame will appear
at the oven burner. There is a time lapse from 30 to 45
seconds after the thermostat is turned ON before
flame appears at the oven burner. When the oven has
reached the dial setting, the glowing ignitor will go
OFF. The burner flame will go “out” in 20 to 30
seconds after the ignitor goes “OFF”. To maintain any
given oven temperature this cycle will continue as long
as the dial is at the given temperature. Figure 3 is an
illustration of a typical range.
c.
In case servicing should become necessary, a manual
gas valve to shut off the gas to the oven burner is
supplied between the gas regulator and the oven
burner valve. It is located at the front of the oven
bottom or on right rear of gas regulator. See figure 3.
The oven CANNOT be used during periods of
power outage.
In case of power failure, turn the
thermostat to the OFF position.
