NOTICE: The surface and oven burners in use when an electrical power failure occurs will continue to
operate normally until shut off.
LIGHTING OVEN BURNER
Before attempting to light the oven burner, it is important to determine whether the oven in your range will
operate during an electrical outage. To make this determination it is necessary to identify the type of oven sys-
tem that your range employs. The easiest way to check this is to look at the first letter of your range model
number. If your range model number starts with an “S” it can not be operated during a power outage.
Refer to the back cover of your manual to find the location of the model number rating plate. Follow the oven
lighting instruction below if your range model number starts with a “T”.
