Using your cooktop
If a burner does not light
Turn the control knob to (off) and wait at least 1 minute before trying again. This
is to allow the gas to disperse. If after trying again the burner still does not light, check that:
the cooktop is plugged in and the power supply is switched on
there is no power failure in your home or neighborhood
the gas is turned on
the gas bottle is not empty (if you use bottled gas)
the ignitors are sparking. If they are not sparking, they may be dirty or wet. Clean them with
a toothbrush and methylated spirits, as shown in Fig. 16 below. See ‘Care and cleaning’ for
instructions on removing and replacing the burner parts.
If the flame is irregular
Check that the burner parts (flame spreader and burner cap) are:
clean and dry
positioned correctly, as shown in Figs. 17 and 18.
For further advice, see sections ‘Care and cleaning’ and ‘Troubleshooting’.
