Hot Oven Restart
If you turn off the oven but then decide to turn it back on before it has cooled to
room temperature, the burner may not light properly. This is due to the thermostat
still sensing “heated oven” and not allowing the maximum gas flow rate into the
burner. After the burner lights, you may adjust the oven control to the desired
temperature.
It is essential to maintain the gas pressure constantly at 10 inches water column
pressure for ranges set for LP Gas; and 4'' water column pressure for ranges set for
Natural Gas to get proper pilot performance.
MOISTURE: Moisture can have the same effect on the oven ignitor as the pilot
flame. If sparking does not occur when the oven thermostat knob is turned on
during the initial attempt to use, or after several days of non-use, it COULD BE the
result of moisture build-up in the ceramic sleeve of the oven electrode. This may
happen in areas with high humidity, or if food having high water content is cooked.
This moisture can be driven out of the ignitor by lighting the pilot and operating the
oven for a few minutes.
NEVER LEAVE THE CONTROL KNOBS IN ANY POSITION OTHER
THAN "OFF" IF THE IGNITORS OR BURNERS AREN'T WORKING
PROPERLY.
With the oven control OFF, open the broiler door and position yourself so you can
see the oven pilot at the back of the oven burner.
If the oven is working, to determine if moisture was the problem, wait a few minutes
and attempt to light the oven by turning the oven control dial on. If sparking occurs
at the oven electrode to ignite the oven pilot, and within sixty seconds ignites the
oven burner, then moisture build-up was the problem. If the oven burner doesn't
ignite within 60 seconds, turn the oven control off and call the serviceman.
If for some reason there isn't sparking, this would indicate the module isn’t
functioning properly, or the batteries are low. If oven cooking is necessary, you may
manually light the oven.
Make certain the oven is cool when manually lighting oven pilot.
