6.5Measuring Flame Current

When the burner flame is properly adjusted, it will produce a current between 3.5 ∝A and 6.5 ∝A. Flame current is measured by placing a microamp (not milliamp) meter in series with the white sens- ing wire on the ignitor. This is accomplished as follows:

1.Turn the unit OFF (press the button).

2.Disconnect the white flame sensor wire from one of the burner ignitor assemblies and connect it to the positive lead of the meter. Connect the negative lead of the meter to the terminal from which the sensing wire was removed.

3.Turn the unit ON (press the button). When a cold unit is first turned on, the burner will cycle on and off repeatedly until the temperature in the cookpot reaches 180°F (82°C). When the water in
