Gas range noises during Bake and Broil operations
Noises that may be heard during the Bake and Broil operations:
Whooshing, Poof, Clicking, Snaps, Pop.
These sounds are normal operational noises that can be heard
each time the Bake or Broil burners ignite during the cycle.
■ A pop can be heard when the gas valve is opening or cycling
on and will make a single pop when it snaps open from the
