If a burner does not ignite, listen for the clicking sound. If the igniter is not clicking, TURN OFF THE BURNER. Check the circuit breaker for a blown fuse or a tripped circuit breaker. If the igniter still fails to operate, see page 28, “Before Calling For Service”. To light the burner manually, see page 28, “Power Failure”.

NOTE: If you are using propane gas, a slight pop or flash may occur at the burner ports a few seconds after the burner has been turned “off”. This “extinc- tion pop” is normal for propane gas.

BURNER BOWL

The burner flame should burn completely around and with- in the burner with no excessive noise or lifting. The flame should be blue in color and stable with no yellow tips.

An improper air-gas mixture may cause either a burner flutter or a yellow tipped flame. A technician should adjust the flame. During initial use, foreign particles in the gas line, or dust in or in the air around the appliance may cause an orange flame. This will disappear with use.

FLAME HEIGHT

The correct height of the flame mainly depends on the size of the bottom of the cooking utensil, the material of the cooking utensil, the amount and type of food and the amount of liquid in the utensil. Following are some basic rules for selecting flame height.

It is necessary to keep the burner ports and the igniters clean, for proper lighting and efficient performance of the cooktop burners.
