IF RANGE HAS ELECTRIC IGNITION—
There are separate ignition devices for the left
and right hand surface burners. Both of these
ignitors are ON when any knob is turned to the
LITE setting. The ignitors will "spark" as long as
any of the top burner knobs are at the LITE
setting.
In the event of an electrical power failure, the top
burners can still be used. To light a burner, hold
a lighted kitchen match adjacent to the top
burner to be used and turn valve knob to LITE.
USE EXTREME CAUTION.

OVEN PILOT ADJUSTMENT
On pilot models remove thermostat knob.
Check position of pilot gas selector to make sure
selector is turned to the correct position for the
type of gas that is to be used. To change to LP,
insert small blade screwdriver in slot and turn
fully clockwise so that indicator points to LP. To
change to NAT, turn fully counterclockwise so
that indicator points to NAT.
Oven pilot selector key
switches from LP to NAT
(vise versa).
• If desired, the gas to the oven pilot can be
turned off by turning the selector so the
pointer is at the OFF position, midway
between the LP and NAT settings.
(Thermostat on your range may not appear
exactly as shown in diagram.)
• On electric ignition models the gas to the
oven burner can be turned off. A manual
shut-off valve is provided on manifold pipe.
