Lighting Instructions for Electric Ignition Models
The oven burner is lighted by electric ignition.

OVEN TEMP
knob to the desired temperature. The
burner should light within 30-90 seconds.

Power Outage—Electric Ignition Models
A burner in use when an electrical power failure
occurs will continue to operate normally. Your
oven may be used during an electrical power
outage by carefully following the steps below.
To light the oven pilot during an electrical
power outage:
Be sure the
OVEN TEMP
knob is in
the
OFF
position.
Open both the oven and broiler
doors and wait 5 minutes to allow
any pilot gas to dissipate.
Unplug the range from the wall
outlet, turn off the circuit breaker, or
remove the fuse to avoid accidental
ignition of the oven if electrical
power is restored while you are
lighting the pilot.
Remove the broiler pan.
Locate the oven pilot assembly by
looking into the broiler opening.
The pilot is at the back of the broiler
compartment, on the left side of the
burner.
NOTE: The oven must be at room temperature
before you should attempt to light the oven pilot
manually.
Turn the
OVEN TEMP
knob to the
desired temperature setting.
Light the pilot with a match and
withdraw your arm immediately
because the oven burner may light in
as little as 20 seconds.
Replace the broiler pan and close
the oven and broiler doors.
NOTE: It is necessary to light the pilot manually
each time the oven is used during a power outage.
Lighting Instructions for Standing Pilot Models
The standing oven pilot must be lit initially.
To light the oven pilot:
Be sure the
OVEN TEMP
knob is in
the
OFF
position.
Remove the oven bottom. See the
Care and cleaning of the range
section.
Find the oven pilot port at the back
of the oven.
Using a long match or match holder,
reach in and light the oven pilot.
Replace the oven bottom and close
the door. Your oven and broiler are
now ready for use.
■To light the oven burner, turn the
