We are having problems lighting our oven. Our two burners work fine as does the broiler.
The large burner is 8200 BTU (2.4 kW) and the small burner is 3400 BTU (1kW)
Force 10 stove support said to rough up the thermo coupler with and emery board or light sand paper and the spark plug also.
OK we will try it tonight 😀
FAQ's
Ignition
Q: Where is the Battery for the electronic spark ignition located?
A: The battery is located underneath the door on the right stove side. The battery is a standard “AA” alkaline battery.
Q: There is no ignition spark at one of my burners. How can I light the burner?
A: There are (2) additional ways to light any burner.
Push straight in (do not turn) any other control knob. (The spark system is cross connected)
Any burner can be lit with a match or butane lighter
Cleaning & Maintenance
Q: What maintenance should be done to maintain performance?
A: The burner orifices should be cleaned once a year to remove carbon deposits and grease
Q: How should I clean the Stainless Steel on my Range?
A: Do not use abrasive pads; they will scratch the surface. Use the mildest cleaning procedure that will do an effective job. Always rinse thoroughly with clear water and dry completely. Frequent cleaning will prolong the service life of stainless steel equipment and help maintain the finish. Ordinary deposits of waste and fluids can usually be removed with soap and water. More stubborn deposits or stuck on debris may require harder rubbing or the use of commercial cleaning products acceptable for use on metal surfaces. When using any cleansing agent, the rubbing should be in the direction of the polish lines or "grain" of the metal.
Q: How do I clean the ceramic glass on my electric range / cooktop?
A: All stain or deposit on the cook-top surface must be cleaned off quickly once the cook-top has cooled down, before re-using the cook-top. In the case of sugar deposits, remove all residues before the cook-top cools down (Be careful not to burn yourself!)
