Electronic Ignition System
Initial lighting and gas flame adjustments
Cooktop and oven burners use electronic igniters in place of
standing pilots. When the cooktop control knob is turned to the
“LITE” 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 knob is turned to the “LITE” position, the
system creates a spark to light the pilot. The oven bottom has a
hole to view the pilot. If the pilot is already lit, turn the oven control
knob counterclockwise to completely light the oven burner.
IMPORTANT: Do not operate bake burner without the metal
battery top installed and secured.
7. Replace the broiler pan and grill in the broiler rack.
