Lighting an oven on a gas stove is a simple process that can be completed in a few easy steps. First, make sure that the oven is turned off and that the gas valve is closed. Next, locate the igniter switch on the front of the oven. This switch is usually located near the control knobs.
Once you have found the igniter switch, press and hold it down while simultaneously turning the oven knob to the “bake” setting. You should hear a clicking sound as the igniter sparks and lights the gas. If the oven does not light after a few seconds, release the igniter switch and wait a few minutes before trying again.
