OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS: Before lighting, check all joints in the gas supply line for leaks. DO NOT USE OPEN
FLAME TO CHECK FOR LEAKS! USE SOAP AND WATER SOLUTION.
Putting an open flame beside a new gas connection is extremely dangerous.
LIGHTING Initial pilot lighting:
CAUTION: When lighting pilots and checking for leaks, do not stand with your face close to the combustion
chamber.
All Sierra appliances are adjusted and tested before leaving the factory, effectively matching them to sea level
conditions. Adjustments and calibrations to assure proper operation may be necessary on installation to meet
local conditions; low gas characteristics, to correct possible problems caused by rough handling or vibration
during shipment, and are to be performed only by qualified service personnel. These adjustments are the
responsibility of the customer and/or dealer and are not covered by our warranty. Before lighting any pilots,
make sure that burner valves and thermostats are turned “off”.
A. TOP BURNERS / RAISED GRIDDLE–BROILER / BROILER. All top section burners are equipped with constant
burning pilots. These are to be manually lighted immediately after the gas is turned on and the system is
checked for leaks. Burner pilots are provided for each burner and can be rechecked for proper adjustment.
Adjustments can be made with a screwdriver to
the brass pilot valve accessible through the valve cover.
B. HOT TOP / GRIDDLE. The pilot should be lighted immediately after the gas is turned on and the system is
checked for leaks. The pilot can be reached with a long match through the valve cover, or by lifting the plate
upward and accessing through the top.
C. STANDARD OVEN. Pilot gas is tapped from the main burner manifold pipe, routed through tubing to a pilot
safety valve, and then to the pilot burner. Gas flow is controlled by the safety valve.
Oven pilot lighting or relighting is to be completed in the following sequence:
(1) Turn the oven thermostat knob to “off” and wait 5 minutes.
(2) Remove the oven’s lower kick plate by lifting up and out. This exposes the pilot safety valve and the igniter
button.
(3) Make sure any accumulated gas has dispersed. Since propane gas is heavier than air, check near the floor
area for the odor of propane gas before attempting to light any pilot burners.
(4) Depress the red button on the safety valve and hold it in throughout the lighting procedure.
(5) Press the red button of the pilot igniter, and you should hear a snap and see a spark at the pilot burner. If a
spark or spark igniter is not present apply a lit match to the pilot burner head.
(6) Continue to depress the safety valve button until the pilot remains lit when released.
(7) If pilot is extinguished, repeat step 4 through 6 above.
(8) Turn the oven thermostat knob “on” and set to desired temperature setting, watch to make sure the oven
burner ignites from the pilot and that there are no yellow flames from the burner.
(9) Turn the oven thermostat to “off” and replace the lower kick plate.
NOTE: It may be necessary to relight the pilot several times until the lines are purged of any trapped air and a
constant gas flow is attained.
MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION: Never use ammonia in an oven that is warmer than room temperature and always have direct
ventilation! If the appliance is on casters and is connected to the supply piping by means of a connector for
