Initial lighting and gas flame adjustments
Cooktop burners use electronic igniters in place of standing
pilots. When the cooktop control knob is turned to any position,
the system creates a spark to light the burner. This sparking
continues, until the flame is lit or the knob is turned to OFF.
Check Operation of Cooktop Burners
Push in and turn each control knob to the LITE position.
The surface burners and grill flames should light within
4 seconds. The first time a burner is lit it may take longer
than 4 seconds to light because of air in the gas line.
After verifying the proper burner operation, turn the control
knobs to OFF.
6. Disconnect wiring from the control console.
On Grill Models:
Support the control console in the middle with one arm and
disconnect the grill indicator light with the other hand.
