Checking for proper cooktop burner flames and oven burner flames is very important. The small inner cone should have a very distinct blue flame ¼" (0.6 cm) to ½" (1.3 cm) long.

The outer cone is not as distinct as the inner cone. LP gas flames have a slightly yellow tip.

IMPORTANT: You may have to adjust the “LO” setting for each cooktop burner.
