DANGER
EXPLOSION AND ASPHYXIATION HAZARD
In the event a gas odor is detected, shut down equipment at the main gas shut-off valve and immediately call
the emergency phone number of your gas supplier.
Improper ventilation can result in headaches, drowsiness, nausea, and could result in death. Do not obstruct the
flow of combustion and ventilation air to and from cooking appliances.
CAUTION
If top-burner pilots go out, the flow of gas to the burners is NOT interrupted (unless the range is equipped with
the optional flame-failure safety valves). Consequently, it is the responsibility of the operator to check the
ignition of the burners, immediately after burner value has been turned ON. Should ignition fail after 10 seconds,
turn off burners, wait 5 minutes, and then check the pilots and try again.
The controls for the burners and oven(s) are located on the control panel on the front of the range.
If the pilots need to be lit, follow the steps listed in each section below.

To operate a top burner, turn the corresponding control knob on the front panel to the desired flame level.
Each top burner has its own pilot. If a top-burner pilot needs to be lit, do the following:
1. Turn all the top-burner control knobs to the OFF position.
2. On ranges with standard pilots, use a match or lighter to light all the pilots.
On ranges equipped with Flame Failure, turn one of the top-burner control knobs to the pilot position, push the
knob inward, and hold it in place. Depress and hold down the spark switch (the black button between the control
knobs). A spark from the igniter to the pilot will be seen and heard. When the pilot lights, release the spark
switch, but continue holding the knob in for 30 to 45 seconds. When the knob is released, the pilot should remain
lit. Repeat for all the pilots, as needed.

1. Turn the oven thermostat to the OFF position.
2. For convection ovens, turn the fan switch to the OFF position.
3. Open the oven door and remove the oven bottom and fire plate to expose pilot and burner.
