Oven burner flame can be checked as follows (without burner baffle in place):
• To correct a yellow flame-Increase size of air shutter opening.
• To correct a lifting, but distinct, blue flame-Decrease size of air shutter opening.
The air shutter should be set approximately 2/3 open for natural gas, and approximately
full open on LP gas.
The oven burner air shutter adjustment is the same on ranges with a gas pilot or electric ignition.
ALIGNMENTS AND ADJUSTMENTS, Continued
IF THE OVEN BURNER DOES NOT IGNITE WITHIN 20 TO 60
SECONDS AFTER THE PILOT IS LIGHTED, TURN THE OVEN
TEMPERATURE CONTROL TO OFF AND WAIT FOR POWER TO BE
RESTORED. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO RELIGHT THE PILOT AGAIN.
If the oven does not function properly when the power is restored, or at any other time, call
a serviceman to determine the source of the problem. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO SERVICE
THE RANGE YOURSELF.
5. Automatic Oven Safety Valve
The orifice hood on the oven safety valve regulates the flow of gas to the oven burner.
This valve adjusts in the same manner as the top burner valves and is located at the base
of the oven burner in the broiler compartment of the range. To gain access, simply
remove the broiler section. When set for LP, the orifice hood is screwed snugly on the
valve. To adjust for use on Natural Gas, unscrew the orifice hood until the proper flow
of gas is obtained.
6. Oven Burner Air Shutter Adjustment
The oven burner flame should be a clean, blue flame with distinct inner cones
approximately 1/2 inch long. A soft, lazy flame with indistinct comes means too much
gas or not enough air. A noisy lifting flame means too much air. If adjustments are
necessary you must first loosen the lock screw located at the top of the air shutter, then
rotate the air shutter to the correct setting, and retighten screw.
