Note: Turn off the gas at the source while troubleshoot-
ing.
Problem: Obstruction in the gas line
Solution:
Remove the fuel line from side burner. (Do not smoke
or perform any maintenance in the vicinity of an open
flame.) Open the gas valve for one second to blow out
any debris. Close off the gas valve and reconnect the
fuel line securely.
Problem: Yellow Flame
Solution: Once the entire burner is operating, check the flame
color to be sure that it is mostly blue. Some yellow at
the tips may be present due to impurities in the fuel. If
the flame is golden or yellow in color, the reason could
be oil film, residue from boil over, or other foreign mat-
ter on the burner.
