Check operation

E
Electronic ignition system
Cooktop and oven burners use electronic
ignitors in place of standing pilots. When a
cooktop control knob is turned to the "LIGHT"
position, the system creates a spark to light
the burner. This sparking continues until the
control knob is turned to the desired setting.
When the oven control is set to the desired
setting, a series of sparks lights the oven
burner. The sparking will stop when burner
gas lights. Sparking will again occur to re-light
the burner everytime the burner cycles back
on again.

flame 1/4" to 1/2" long. The outer
cone is not as distinct as the inner
cone.

control knob from "LIGHT" to "LOW" setting

the valve stem. Turn the valve screw to obtain
the smallest flame that will not go out when

from "HIGH" to "LOW". Repeat for other
