Cap Alignment
Always keep the burner cap properly fitted in place when using a
surface burner. A clean burner cap will help avoid poor ignition
and uneven flames. Always clean the burner cap after a spillover
and routinely remove and clean the caps according to the
"General Cleaning" section.
Standard Burner

Burner ports
Check burner flames occasionally
for proper size and shape as
