Burner ports or burner caps are
not positioned properly.
Cooktop is being operated with
the wrong type of gas. Regulator

Clean burner bezel ring ports with
straightened paper clip, needle, or
wire. Remove and carefully
re-install burner bezel and caps.
Ensure that the type of cooktop

Turn shut-off valve to the ‘ON’

Igniters spark
continuously after

Power supply polarity is
reversed. Igniters are wet or

Have polarity corrected. Dry or
clean igniters.
Burner flame goes
out at low setting.
Low gas supply pressure. Air
intake holes around knobs are
obstructed.
Contact gas company. Remove
obstruction.
The flames have
suddenly gone out.
A draft or a spill has
extinguished the flame.
No action required. The burner will
detect this and automatically
relight. However,
if there has been a large spill, we
recommend turning the burners off
and cleaning the burners and sump
area. See
‘Care and cleaning’ for instrucions.
There is a power
failure can I still
use the cooktop
burners?
Power outage in your area.
The cooktop burners can still be
used. To light them:
1.Holding a lighted match to the
flame spreader, push in on the
control knob and turn
counterclockwise to LITE.
2.When the flame is burning all the
way around the burner, you may
adjust the heat.
Important!
If the flame is blown out during a
power failure, turn the knob
immediately to OFF, as the burner
will not automatically relight and
gas may escape.
