USING YOUR OVEN
Be sure you understand how to set the controls
properly. Practice removing and replacing the shelves
while the oven is cool. Read the information and tips
on the following pages. Keep this guide handy where
you can refer to it, especially during the first weeks of
using your new range.
Before Using Your Oven
Electric Ignition
The oven burner and broil burner are lighted by
electric ignition.
To light either burner, turn the OVEN SET knob to
the desired oven operation and the OVEN TEMP
knob to the desired temperature. The burner should
ignite within 30-90 seconds.
After the oven reaches the selected temperature, the
oven burner cycles—off completely, then on with a
full flame—to keep the oven temperature controlled.
Power Outage
CAUTION: Do not make any attempt to operate
the electric ignition oven during an electrical
power failure.
The oven or broiler cannot be lit during a power
failure. Gas will not flow unless the glow bar is hot.
If the oven is in use when a power failure occurs,
the oven burner shuts off and cannot be re-lit until
power is restored.
Oven Light
Use the switch on the control panel to turn the oven light on or off.
Oven Moisture
As your oven heats up, the temperature change of the
air in the oven may cause water droplets to form on the
door glass. These droplets are harmless and will
evaporate as the oven continues to heat up.
