Burner Ignition

Cooktop Spark Ignition—When you turn the
cooktop knob to LITE, the spark igniter
makes a series of electric sparks (ticking
sounds) which light the burner.
During a power failure, the burners will not
light automatically. In an emergency, a
cooktop burner may be lit with a match by
following the steps below.
WARNING: Lighting gas burners with a
match is dangerous. You should match
light the cooktop burners only in an
emergency.
a. Light a match and hold the flame near the
burner you want to light. Wooden matches
work best.
b. Push in and turn the control knob slowly.
Be sure you are turning the correct knob
for the burner you are lighting.
NOTE: If the burner does not light within five
seconds, turn the knob off and wait one minute
before trying again.
