sparking position to the lowest flame position without extinguishing the flame. Flame should be as small as possible without going out.

Notes:

Air mixture adjustment is not required on surface burners.

Some models have two flames on a burner. The center flame on these burners is not adjustable.

10.1 Electric Ignition Burners

Operation of electric igniters should be checked after range and supply line connectors have been carefully checked for leaks, and range has been connected to electric power. The oven burner is equipped with an electric control system as well as an electric oven burner igniter. If your model is equipped with a waist-high broil burner igniter, it will also have an electric burner igniter. These control systems require no adjustment. When

the oven is set to operate, current will flow to the igniter.

It will "glow" similar to a light bulb. When the igniter has reached a temperature sufficient to ignite gas, the

electrically controlled oven valve will open and flame will appear at the oven burner. There is a time lapse from 30 to 60 seconds after thermostat is turned ON before the flame appears at the oven burner. When the oven reaches the display setting, the glowing igniter will go off. The burner flame will go "out" in 20 to 30 seconds after igniter goes "OFF". To maintain any given oven temperature, this cycle will continue as long as the display is set to operate.

After removing all packing materials and literature from the oven:

1.Set the oven to BAKE at 300°F. See Use & Care Guide for operating instructions.

2.Within 60 seconds the oven burner should ignite.

Check for proper flame (see 10.2), and allow the burner to cycle once. Reset controls to off.

3.If your model is equipped with a waist-high broiler burner, set oven to broil. See Use & Care Guide for operating instructions.

4.Within 60 seconds the broil burner should ignite.

Check for proper flame. Reset controls to off.

Oven Burner Flame Adjustment

The approximate oven burner flame length is 1 inch (distinct inner cone of blue flame).

To determine if the oven burner flame is proper, remove the oven bottom and burner baffle and set the oven to bake at 300°F.

To remove the oven bottom, remove the oven racks and the ladder racks. Slide the oven bottom forward to disengage the back tab. Lift and slide back to disengage

front of oven bottom from oven front frame. Pull the oven bottom out of the cavity. The baffle is attached to the oven bottom and requires no further disassembly.

If the flame is yellow, increase air shutter opening size (see "2" in Figure 24). If the entire flame is blue, reduce the air shutter opening size.

To adjust flame loosen lock screw (see "3" in Figure 24), reposition air shutter, and tighten lock screw. Replace oven bottom.

Broil Burner Flame Adjustment

The approximate flame length of the burner is 1 inch (distinct inner cone of blue flame). To determine if the broil burner flame is proper, set the oven to broil. If flame is yellow, increase air shutter opening size (see "2" in

Figure 24). If the entire flame is blue, reduce the air shutter opening size. To adjust, loosen lock screw (see "3" in Figure 24), reposition air shutter, and tighten lock screw.
