Do not operate the range without antitip bracket installed and engaged. Please reference the “Assistance or Service” section of the Use and Care Guide, or the cover or “Warranty” section of the User Instructions, to contact service.

Level Range

1. Place a standard at rack in oven.

2. Place level on the rack and check levelness of the range, rst

side to side; then front to back.

Electronic Ignition System

Initial lighting and gas ﬂame adjustments

Cooktop and oven burners use electronic igniters in place of standing pilots. When the cooktop control knob is turned to the “IGNITE” position, the system creates a spark to light the burner. This sparking continues until the control knob is turned to the desired setting.

When the oven control is turned to the desired setting, a hot surface igniter heats to a bright orange and ignites the gas. No sparking occurs. The glow bar remains on while the burner operates.

Check Operation of Cooktop Burners

1. If control panel and knobs were removed earlier, reinstall knobs.

2. Push in and turn each surface unit control knob to “IGNITE” position. The ame should light within 4 seconds.

Med

3. Turn control knob to “HIGH” position after burner lights.

4. Check each cooktop burner for proper ame. The small inner

cone should have a very distinct blue ame 1/4" (0.64 cm) to 1/2" (1.3 cm) long. The outer cone is not as distinct as the inner cone.

3. If range is not level, pull range forward until rear leveling leg is removed from the anti-tip bracket.

4. Use a 3/8" drive ratchet and slip-joint pliers to adjust leveling legs up or down until the range is level.

5. Push range back into position.

6. Check that rear leveling leg is engaged in the anti-tip bracket. NOTE: Range must be level for satisfactory baking

performance.

A. Outer cone B. Inner cone

5. Turn the control knob quickly to the “LOW” position after the burner lights. If the ame goes out, turn the control knob to the “OFF” position.

6. Check each cooktop burner for proper low ame. The low ame should be a minimum, steady blue ame. The ame size should be 1/4" to 3/8" (0.64 cm to 0.95 cm) high.

If the low ﬂame needs adjusting:

1. Turn control knob to the “LOW” setting and remove control knob.

2. Insert a small at-blade screwdriver into the valve stem. Turn the valve adjusting screw to obtain the smallest ame that will not go out when the control of a cold burner is quickly turned from “HIGH” to “LOW.” Turn right to decrease ame height. Turn left to increase ame height. Repeat for other cooktop burners as needed.

Check Operation of Oven/Broil Burner

Electronic oven control (on some models):

1. Open broiler door.

2. Press the “BAKE” pad.

■ The “BAKE” indicator will light.

■ “350” will appear in the display.

3. Press the START/ENTER pad.

■ The “TEMP” and “ON” indicators will appear.

■ The display will show the automatic countdown time

(10 minutes) needed to preheat the oven for selected temperature.

■ The oven burner should light in 20-40 seconds; this delay

is normal. The oven valve requires a certain time before it will open and allow gas to ow. The oven burner will burn until oven temperature has reached 350°F (175°C). After 20-40 seconds, the oven burner will begin to cycle on and off to maintain the 350°F (175°C) temperature.

Broil burner and oven burner are the same burner. Check the broil function as follows:

1. Press the “BROIL” pad.

■ “525” will appear in the display.

■ The “BROIL” indicator will light.

2. Press the START/ENTER pad.

■ The oven burner should light in 20-40 seconds; this delay

is normal. The oven valve requires a certain time before it will open and allow gas to ow.

To avoid damaging the hot surface igniter, do not insert any object into the openings of the shield that surrounds the igniter or clean that area.

3. Check the oven burner for proper ame. The ame should be 1/2" (1.3 cm) long, with inner cone of bluish-green. The outer mantle should be dark blue and should be clean and soft in character. No yellow tips (not enough air), blowing or lifting (too much air) of ame should occur.

3. Locate the air shutter near the rear wall of oven and loosen the shutter screw.

A. Shutter screw B. Air shutter

4. Adjust the air shutter.

5. Turn the oven back on and check for proper ame. If the

ame is still not properly adjusted, turn the oven off, wait for the oven burner to cool down and repeat Step 4 until ame is properly adjusted.

6. When the ame has been properly adjusted, turn the oven off, wait for the burner to cool down.

7. Tighten the shutter screw.

8. Reinstall ame spreader and oven tray. Reinstall the oven

racks and close oven door.
