In the event of a burn-back, where the flame burns back to the jet, immediately turn
off the gas supply at the control valve on the gas bottle or gas supply. After
ensuring the flame is extinguished, re-open and re-light the appliance in the normal
manner. Should the appliance again burn back, close the control valve and call a
service technician. Do not use the appliance again until the service technician has
declared that it is safe to do so.
