WARNING

NORMALIGNITION

The JF63G is equipped with automatic ignition. When the broiler is turned on, a hot surface ignitor turns on 5 seconds before the flow of gas. Gas then flows to all of the burners. If the burners are not lit within 10 seconds, the control will reset and try again for 10 seconds. This occurs 3 times. If the broiler does not light after the third attempt, the ignition failure light will flash and the main on/off switch must be cycled to repeat the procedure. If this still doesn’t light the broiler, see the MANUAL IGNITION instructions.

1. Turn the MAINPOWER SWITCH on.

2.2. Allow broiler to heat for 45 minutes before cooking.
