1. Grasp the control knob.
2. Push down and turn to LFE. The electric
spark ignitor wi++ignite the gas flowing into
the burner. When you hear a clicking
sound, you know that the ignitors are
working. Gas is flowing as long as knob is
not set at OFF.
3. When the burner is lit, turn the control
knob to the desired flame setting. (See the
guide under "Burner heat settings" later in
this section.) You can turn the knobs to
any of the marked settings. The ignitor will
turn off and the clicking will stop when the
knob is moved from LFE.
NOTES:
®The ignitors may click a number of times
before burner lights. This is normal.
®All four burner ignitors will spark
regardless of which burner you are using.
®Visually check that the burner has lit. If the
burner does not ignite, listen for the clicking
sound. If you do not hear the ignitor click,
TURN THE BURNER OFR Check that the
service cord is placed firmly in the wall
receptacle. Check for a tripped circuit
breaker or blown fuse.
Check that the control knob is pressed
completeJy down on valve shaft. If the spark
ignitor still fails to operate, call your
nearest designated service outlet.
Proper grounding and polarity are
necessary for correct operation of the electric
ignition system. If the wall receptacle does
not provide correct polarity, the ignitor will
become grounded and click every once in
a while, even after the burner has ignited.
A qualified electrician should check the wall
receptacle to see if it is wired with correct
polarity
