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.(Fig.15)
BURNER EFFICIENCY AND FLAME
CHARACTERISTICS
It is necessary to keep the burner ports and the igniters
clean for proper lighting and efficient performance of the
cooktop burners.
The burner flame should burn completely around the
burner with no excessive noise or lifting. The flame
should be blue in color and stable with no yellow tips.
(Fig.16)
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.
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 “extinction
pop”is normal for propane gas.
