Flame failure safety feature
The burners have a flame failure probe as well as an ignitor (see Fig 15).
The flame failure probe cuts off the gas supply to the burner if the flame is blown out.
If the flames are accidentally extinguished, turn off the burner and do not try to light it again for at least one minute (to allow the gas to disperse).
