CHECK
If all burners fail to ignite:
Check that sparks appear at the burners; a clicking
noise should be heard.
If not...
Check that the electricity supply is turned on.
If the electricity supply has failed, the hotplate
burners can be lit by a match.
If only one burner fails to ignite:
Check that the burner is dry and that spillage of food
or cleaning fluid remains are not affecting the ignitor
or burner ports.
Ignitor
Clean away any debris with a dry nylon brush such as
an old toothbrush. If a wire wool pad has been used
for cleaning around the burner ensure the ignitor is
free from any stray strands. Any water on the burner
should be dried with a cloth or kitchen towel.
Make sure that all the burner parts are correctly
seated.
