The 4-burner stove and oven in the Kitchen run on propane, which is stored in two tanks behind the "garage" and piped inside. Cooking with the propane stove is similar to cooking with any gas appliance. The burners are lit by turning the pushing in the knob and turning briefly to "Light" and then back to the desired setting once ignited. The oven lights automatically when turned on and temperature set. Burners can be lit using matches if there are problems with the igniters (eg: electricity low). If you have problems with the propane, please do not touch the propane tanks or valves. Contact CIBC for assistance.
