I'll light the oven this evening. If I don't report back, call 911.

To broil, put a broiler pan UNDER the oven's single burner (on the bottom of the oven). Flip your steak, etc. when it's done on the first side.

To bake, put a rack over the burner. It's a small capacity oven so you're not going to do any 40 lb. turkey's in there without disassembling them.

It might take two people because the oven knob has to be HELD in until the burner lights.

Thanks for the tip starflyte1. I had turned the oven knob to pilot but I did not hold it in. As you stated, sounds like a two person operation.

Good news starflyte1. I went out and tried lighting the oven. The wife held the pilot button in while I lit the pilot - success! Thanks for the heads up!
