ELECTRONIC IGNITERS

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. If the igniter still fails to operate, see page 28,
"Before Calling For Service". To light the burner manually,
see page 28, "Power Failure".
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 "extinc-
tion pop" is normal for propane gas.

It is necessary to keep the burner ports and the igniters clean, for
proper lighting and efficient performance of the cooktop burners.
COOKTOP USE
The burner flame should burn completely around and with-
in the burner with no excessive noise or lifting. The flame
should be blue in color and stable with no yellow tips.
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.
