Installation Instructions
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS (CONT.)
B. Usage Situations where Appliance Power Cord will be
Disconnected Frequently.
Do not use an adapter plug in these situations because
disconnecting of the power cord places undue strain on
the adapter and leads to eventual failure of the adapter
ground terminal. The customer should have the 2-prong
wall receptacle replaced with a three-prong (grounding)
receptacle by a qualified electrician before using the
appliance.
The installation of appliances designed for mobile home
installation must conform with the Manufactured
Home Construction and Safety Standard, Title 24 CFR,
Part 3280 (formerly the Federal Standard for Mobile
Home Construction and Safety, Title 24, HUD, Part 280)
or, when such standard is not applicable, the Standard
for Manufactured Home Installations, latest edition
(Manufactured Home Sites, Communities and Set-Ups),
ANSI A225.1, latest edition, or with local codes. In
Canada, mobile home installation must be in accordance
with the current CAN/CSA Z240/MH Mobile Home
Installation Code.

CHECK IGNITION OF SURFACE
BURNERS
Operation of all cooktop and oven burners should be
checked after the range and gas supply lines have been
carefully checked for leaks.
Electric Ignition Models
Select a top burner knob and simultaneously push in and
turn to LITE position. You will hear a clicking sound
indicating proper operation of the spark module. Once the
air has been purged from the supply lines, burners should
light within 4 seconds. After burner lights, rotate knob out of
the LITE position. Try each burner in succession until all
burners have been checked.
Quality of Flames
The combustion quality of burner flames needs to be
determined visually.
If burner flames look like (A), call for service. Normal
burner flames should look like (B) or (C), depending
on the type of gas you use.
With LP gas, some yellow tipping on outer cones is normal.
(C) Soft blue
flames—Normal for
natural gas
(B) Yellow tips on

CHECK IGNITION OF OVEN BURNER
The oven is designed to operate quietly and automatically.
To operate the oven, press the BAKE pad and then press the
number pads until 350° appears in the display. Touch the
START/ON pad. After 30–90 seconds, the oven burner will
ignite and burn until the set temperature is reached. The
oven burner will continue to cycle on and off as necessary to
maintain the oven at the temperature indicated by the display.
To check ignition of the broil burner, touch the BROIL
HI/LO pad and then the START/ON pad. After 30–90
seconds, the broil burner will ignite.
Electric ignition models require electrical power to operate.
In case of a power outage, the oven burners on these models
cannot be lit manually with a match. Gas will not flow unless
the glow bar is hot.
If the oven is in use when a power outage occurs, the burner
will shut off and cannot be re-lit until power is restored.
