Lighting Range Pilots

Light Top Pilots (Standing Pilot Models Only)

The surface burners on this range have standing pilots that must be lit initially. To light them:

2. Remove the grates and cooktop.

3. Locate the pilot ports and light each of them with a match. Replace the cooktop and grates.
Lighting Top Pilots

NOTE: PILOT SHOULD BE 3/8" HIGH. IF THE PILOT IS TOO HIGH OR LOW, YOU CAN ADJUST IN THE FOLLOWING MANNER:

1. Locate the pilot adjustment screw. It can be found by following the pilot line back from the pilot to the oven control.

2. To adjust, use a blade-type screwdriver. Turn the pilot adjustment screw until the pilot is 3/8" high. Do not reduce the flame to less than 3/8" or pilot outage may occur. A larger than recommended pilot flame may generate soot (carbon black) on the bottom of your cooktop.
