Electronic Ignition System
Initial lighting and gas flame adjustments
Surface burners use electronic igniters in place of standing pilots. 
When the cooktop control knob is turned to the “IGNITE” 
position, the system creates a spark to light the burner. This 
sparking continues, as long as the control knob is turned to 
“IGNITE.”
Check Operation of Surface Burners
Push in and turn the surface burners control knobs to light. 
The surface burner flame should light within 4 seconds. The first 
time a surface burner is lighted it may take longer that 4 seconds 
to light because of air in the gas line. 
Check the flame on “HIGH” for a blue color. It should be clean 
and soft in character. No yellow tip, blowing or lifting of flame 
should occur. Occasional orange flashes are normal and reflect 
different elements in the air or gas.
After verifying the proper burner operation, turn the control knobs 
to “OFF.”
If burners do not light properly:
Turn surface burner control knob to the “OFF” position. 
Check that the power supply cord is plugged in and the 
circuit breaker has not tripped or the fuse blown. 
Check that the gas shutoff valves are set to the “open” 
position. 
Check that burner caps are properly positioned on burner 
bases.
Recheck operation of surface burners. If a burner does not light 
at this point, contact your dealer or authorized service company 
for assistance.
Check Flame Height
Adjust the height of surface burner flames. 
The surface burner “low” flame should be a steady blue flame 
approximately ¼" (0.64 cm) high.
If the “low” flame needs to be adjusted:
1. Light 1 burner and turn to lowest setting.
2. Remove the control knob.
3. Hold the knob stem in the low position using a pair of pliers. 
Use an
 ¹⁄₈" (3.0 mm) flat-blade screwdriver to turn the screw 
located in the center of the control knob stem until the flame 
is the proper size.
4. Replace the control knob.
5. Test the flame by turning the control from “LO” to “HI,” 
checking the flame at each setting.
6. Repeat above steps for each burner.
A. Low flame
B. High flame
