4. Remove the battery holder and insert a new 9V DC alkaline 

battery into it.

5. Replace the battery holder in the plastic battery box with the 

battery facing the bottom and the blue wires facing up, and 
close the plastic battery box.

6. Reinstall the metal battery top and secure it with the screw.

IMPORTANT: Do not operate bake burner without the metal 
battery top installed and secured.

7. Replace the broiler pan and grill in the broiler rack.

8. Close the broiler door.

Test the battery by lighting a burner. See “Electronic Ignition 
System” section. The electrode in each burner will spark and 
make a clicking noise.

When the battery needs to be replaced, follow these instructions 
and remove the old battery before inserting a new battery. 
Properly dispose of the old battery. See the “Battery Status 
Indicator” section to know when to replace the battery.

■

The battery status indicator on the control panel will show the 
recommended time to replace the battery.

■

If the battery status indicator lights up red when any of the 
burner knobs is in the LITE position, then it is recommended 
you replace the battery with a new 9V DC alkaline battery.

NOTE: If any knob is turned to the LITE position and there is no 
clicking noise or the battery status does not light, either the 
battery power is very low or completely discharged, or there is no 
battery connected to the battery case. In this event, replace the 
battery or install a new 9V DC alkaline battery.

IMPORTANT: If the range will be unused for a long time, it is 
recommended that the battery is removed and stored out of reach 
of children. Reinstall the battery when the range will be used again.

NOTE: Remove the battery before moving the range. Reinstall 
the battery after the range has been reconnected.

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 knob is turned to the “LITE” position, the 
system creates a spark to light the pilot. The oven bottom has a 
hole to view the pilot. If the pilot is already lit, turn the oven control 
knob counterclockwise to completely light the oven burner.

The electronic ignition system requires a 9V DC alkaline battery 
to create a spark to light the burners (this battery is not included).
