If 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

lighted kitchen match adjacent to the top burner

to be used and turn valve knob to LITE. USE
EXTREME CAUTION.

Oven Pilot Adjustment

On pilot models remove thermostat knob.

Check position of pilot gas selector to make sure

selector is turned to the correct position for the

type of gas that is to be used. To change to LP,

insert small blade screwdriver in slot and turn

fully clockwise so that indicator points to LP. To

change to NAT, turn fully counterclockwise so that

indicator points to NAT.

If desired, the gas to the oven pilot can be

turned off by turning the selector so the pointer

is at the OFF position, midway between the LP

and NAT settings. (Thermostat on your range

may not appear exactly as shown in diagram.)

On electric ignition models the gas to the oven

burner can be turned off. A manual shut-off

valve is provided on manifold pipe.
