STEP 6
Check Ignition of Surface Burners
Operation of all cooktop and oven burners should be
checked after all range and gas supply lines have been
carefully checked for leaks..
Select a top burner knob and simultaneously push in
and turn to LITE position. You will hear a snapping sound
indicating proper operation of the spark module. Once
the air has been purged from the supply lines, burners
should light within 4 seconds. After burner lights, rotate
knob out of the LITE position° Try each burner in
succession until all burners have been checked..
NOTE: When one burner is turned to LITE, all the
burners spark°
Quality of Flames
The combustion quality of burner flames needs to be
determined visually.

Check Ignition of Oven Burner
Your oven is designed to operate quietly and
automatically. To operate the oven, turn the OVEN TEMP
knob to a setting above 200°F (93_C)..After 30-90
seconds, the oven burner will ignite and burn until the set
temperature is reached° The oven burner will continue to
cycle on and off as necessary to maintain the oven at the
temperature indicated by the OVEN TEMP knob.
Electronic ignition models require electrical power to
operate. In case of a power outage, the oven burners on
these models cannot be lit manually with a match.. Gas
will not flow unless the glow bar is hot.
if the oven is in use when a power outage occurs, the
oven burner will shut off and cannot be re-lit until power
is restored°
(B) Yellow tips on outer
cones--Normal for LP gas
(C) Soft blue flames--
Normal for natural gas
If burner flames look like (A), call Sears for service,
Normal burner flames should look like (B) or (C),
depending on the type of gas you use°
With LP gas, some yellow tipping on outer cones is
normal.
