INITIAL PILOT LIGHTING
D. 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 burner.
(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 button on the safety valve and hold it in throughout the lighting procedure.
(5) Light the pilot while continuing to depress the button on the safety valve until the pilot remains lit
when released.
(6) If pilot is extinguished, repeat steps 4 & 5 above.
(7) 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.
(8) 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.
