push in and turn to the Lite position. You will hear
a clicking sound indicating proper operation of the
spark module.
Once the air has been purged from the supply lines
the burner should ignite within 4 seconds. After the
burner ignites, rotate the knob out of the Lite position.
Try each burner in succession until all burners have
been checked.
