Checking for proper cooktop burner flame is very important.
The small inner cone should have a very distinct blue flame
¼" to ½" (6.3 mm to 12.7 mm) long. The outer cone is not as
distinct as the inner cone. Propane gas flames have a
slightly yellow tip.
IMPORTANT: You may have to adjust the "Low" setting
for each cooktop burner. See "Adjust Flame Height" in the
"Electronic Ignition System" section.
