The burner sounds noisy.
The burner is emitting a popping sound.
Noise.
POSSIBLE SOLUTION
Ensure the burner parts have been placed
correctly.
Check that there is not a problem with your gas
supply. You can do this by making sure the other
gas appliances such as central heating or gas
fires are working.
Due to the design of the burner the flame can
appear to be orange/yellow (flame disturbance) in
certain areas of the burner this is a natural
occurrence.
Check that the burner is dry and that food spillage
or cleaning fluids are not present on the burner.
This can be dried with a cloth and stubborn marks
cleaned away with a dry nylon brush (old
toothbrush etc.)
It is natural for the burners to emit noise as the
gas is being drawn through the burner and may
reduce as they heat up.
This is a natural occurrence when the burner is
alight and does not affect the performance of the
burner.
It is normal for some metal parts on the cooker to
produce noise when in use, this is due to
expansion and contraction when heating up and
cooling down.
