IMPORTANT: If there is a snapping or popping sound when lifting
the range, the range may not be fully engaged in the bracket.
Check to see if there are obstructions keeping the range from
sliding to the wall or keeping the range foot from sliding into the
bracket. Verify that the bracket is held securely in place by the
mounting screws.
4. Slide the range forward, and verify that the anti-tip bracket is
securely attached to the floor or wall.
5. Slide range back so the rear range foot is inserted into the
slot of the anti-tip bracket.
IMPORTANT: If the back of the range is more than 2" (5.1 cm)
from the mounting wall, the rear range foot may not engage the
bracket. Slide the range forward and determine if there is an
obstruction between the range and the mounting wall. Changes
to the gas supply must be performed by a qualified service
technician. If you need assistance or service, refer to the
“Assistance or Service” section of the Use and Care Guide for
contact information.
6. Repeat steps 1 and 2 to ensure that the range foot is
engaged in the anti-tip bracket.
If the rear of the range lifts more than ½" (1.3 cm) off the floor
without resistance, the anti-tip bracket may not be installed
correctly. Do not operate the range without anti-tip bracket
installed and engaged. Please reference the “Assistance or
Service” section of the Use and Care Guide, or the cover or
“Warranty” section of the User Instructions, to contact
service.
Level Range
1. Place a standard flat rack in oven.
2. Place level on the rack and check levelness of the range, first
side to side; then front to back.
3. If range is not level, pull range forward until rear leveling leg is
removed from the anti-tip bracket.
4. Use a ³⁄₈" drive ratchet and slip-joint pliers to adjust leveling
legs up or down until the range is level.
5. Push range back into position.
6. Check that rear leveling leg is engaged in the anti-tip bracket.
NOTE: Range must be level for satisfactory baking
performance.
Electronic Ignition System
Initial lighting and gas flame adjustments
Cooktop and oven burners use electronic igniters in place of
standing pilots. When the cooktop control knob is turned to the
“LITE” position, the system creates a spark to light the burner.
This sparking continues until the control knob is turned to the
desired setting.
When the oven control is turned to the desired setting, a hot
surface igniter heats to a bright orange and ignites the gas. No
sparking occurs. The glow bar remains on while the burner
operates.
Check Operation of Cooktop Burners
1. If control panel and knobs were removed earlier, reinstall
knobs.
2. Push in and turn each surface unit control knob to the “LITE”
position. The flame should light within 4 seconds.
3. Turn control knob to the “HI” position after burner lights.
4. Check each cooktop burner for proper flame. The small inner
cone should have a very distinct blue flame ¼" (0.64 cm) to
½" (1.3 cm) long. The outer cone is not as distinct as the inner
cone.
5. Turn the control knob quickly to the “LO” position after the
burner lights. If the flame goes out, turn the control knob to
the “OFF” position.
6. Check each cooktop burner for proper low flame. The low
flame should be a minimum, steady blue flame. The flame
size should be ¼" to
³⁄₈" (0.64 cm to 0.95 cm) high.
If the low flame needs adjusting:
1. With the burner flame on, turn control knob to the “LO”
position and remove control knob.
2. Insert a small flat-blade screwdriver into the valve stem. Turn
the valve adjusting screw to obtain the smallest flame that will
not go out when the control of a cold burner is quickly turned
from “HI” to “LO.” Turn right to decrease flame height. Turn
left to increase flame height. Repeat for other cooktop
burners as needed.
3. Replace control knob.
