GE 1908 - 36" Range User Manual


 
IMPORTANT
Please make sure your cooker is unpacked completely before use.
Remove all tape and packaging. Make sure the burners are properly placed and level. Take the
accessory pack out of the oven. Check to be sure that no parts have come loose during shipping.
Before using the cooktop make sure all burners are in
place and all the grates on the range are properly
placed.
The drawing by each knob indicates which burner
that knob controls (Fig. 9).
The gas burners on our CornuFé 1908 - 36" range
appliances are fitted with safety thermocouples: if a
burner shuts off for any reason, the gas supply for
that burner is automatically stopped.
The thermocouple should not be activated for more
than 15 seconds; if, after this time, the burner has not
ignited, you should stop trying to ignite, and wait at
least one minute before trying to reignite the burner.
All of our appliances are equipped with automatic
gas burner ignition.
To ignite a gas burner, press the control knob and
turn it to the left to the "high flame" position (Fig.
10). The burner is automatically ignited. Keep the
knob pressed (Fig. 11) for 5 – 10 seconds (the safety
thermocouple may take longer to react the first time).
The sparking noise means that the ignition system is
operating normally.
When a cooktop burner knob is pressed in, sparks
will be made at every burner – this is normal.
Do not attempt to disassemble or clean around
any burner while another burner is on. An electric
shock could result.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
INITIAL IGNITION
Defuse any trapped air from the gas network, starting with each of the burners on
the cooktop. Once this is done, the gas oven can then be ignited. However, if the safe-
ty device for the oven is activated (red indicator ON), press the reset button above
the red indicator to repeat the procedure.
