(flame failure models only)
Flame failure safety feature (some models only)
Some cooktop models have a flame failure safety device. These models have a flame failure
probe as well as the ignitor (see Fig 15).
The flame failure probe cuts off the gas supply to the burner if the flame is blown out.
When lighting the burner on flame failure models, hold down the knob for approximately 10
seconds after the burner has lit. Releasing the knob too soon will extinguish the flame.
If the flames are accidentally extinguished, turn off the burner and do not try to light it again for
at least one minute (to allow the gas to disperse).
If a burner does not light
Check that:
The cooktop is plugged in and the electricity is switched on.
The gas is turned on.
The gas bottle is not empty (if you are using bottled gas).
Flame failure models only: You have held down the knob for at least 10 seconds.
The ignitors are sparking. If the ignitors are not sparking, they may be dirty or wet. Clean them
with a toothbrush and methylated spirits, as shown in Fig. 15.
