Safety Practices for Servicer
Safe and satisfactory operation of gas ranges depends
upon its design and proper installation. However, there is
one more area of safety to be considered:
Servicing
Listed below are some general precautions and safety
practices which should be followed in order to protect the
service technician and consumer during service and after
service has been completed.
1. Gas smell—Extinguish any and all open flames and
open windows.
2. Turn gas off—Service range with gas turned off
unless testing requires it.
3. Checking for gas leaks—Never check for leaks
with any kind of open flame. Soap and water solution
should be used for this purpose. Apply solution to
suspected area and watch for air bubbles which
indicates a leak. Correct leaks by tightening fittings,
screws, connections, applying approved compound,
or installing new parts.
4. Using lights—Use a hand flashlight when servicing
ranges or checking for gas leaks. Electric switches
should not be operated where leaks are suspected.
This will avoid creating arcing or sparks which could
ignite the gas. If electric lights are already turned on,
they should not be turned off.
5. Do not smoke—Never smoke while servicing gas
ranges, especially when working on piping that
contains or has contained gas.
6. Check range when service is completed—After
servicing, make visual checks on electrical
connection, and check for gas leaks. Inform
consumer of the condition of range before leaving.
7. Adhere to all local regulations and codes when
performing service.
• Ensure range is correctly adjusted by a qualified
service technician or installer for the type of gas
(Natural or LP). Some ranges can be converted for
use with Natural or LP gas.
• With prolonged use of a range, high floor temperatures
could result. Many floor coverings will not be able to
withstand this kind of use. Never install range over vinyl
tile or linoleum that cannot withstand high
temperatures. Never install range directly over
carpeting.
ALL APPLIANCES
1. Proper Installation—Be sure your appliance is
properly installed and grounded by a qualified
technician.

Gas Valve
Bake and broil dual gas valves supply gas to the bake
and broil burners. Valves contain a bimetal arms
attached to the valve seats. These arms are wrapped
with a small electric heater coil. When current range of
approximately 3.3 to 3.6 amper flows through the bake
or broil circuit, the bimetal arm is heated. Heating
causes the arm to bend, allowing gas to flow and be
ignited by the burner ignitor.
Surface Burners, Griddle, Charbroil
One spark ignitor is used for each pair of burners. The
ignitor is located between the flash tubes covered by a
metal bracket to provide a grounding surface for ignition.
The surface burners have standard typical valves with a
micro switch, which slides onto the shaft of the valve.
When turning the surface valve to lite position, the
internal shaft of the valve rotates and turns the micro
switch on.
NOTE: If any surface valve is turned to lite position all
electrodes will spark.

Functional Operation
Bake or Broil Ignitors
Bake and broil ignitors are mounted to the bake and
broil burners. They ignite the gas flowing into the burner.
During bake or broil operations, current flows through
the ignitor, gas valve, and thermostat to neutral. As the
ignitor heats up and starts glowing, it’s internal
resistance decreases. This allows more current to flow
through the bake or broil circuit.
When ciruit current reaches approximately 3.3 to 3.6
ampers. The bimetal arm in the gas valve flexes,
opening the valve and allowing gas to flow to the burner,
where it is ignited by the glowing ignitor. Ignitors glow
anytime bake or broil burners are operating and cycle on
and off with the thermostat cycling contacts.
Spark System
The spark ignition system consists of a solid state
module, spark ignitors, and micro switches.
By turning a surface burner knob to LITE postion. The
spark module sends approximately 2 sparks per second
to the spark ignitors. This is achieved by turnning the
burner knob, which rotates the micro switch located on
the valve stem. Which causes a demand for spark from
the spark module containing an electronic circuit which
produces high voltage pulses.
NOTE: When any surface burner is turned to the “ON”
position all surface burners on that circuit will
spark.
By turning a oven burner knob to LITE postion. The
spark module sends approximately 2 sparks per second
to the spark ignitors. This is achieved by turnning the
burner knob, which rotates the micro switch located on
the valve stem. Which causes a demand for spark from
the spark module containning an electronic circuit which
produces high voltage pulses.
