Solutions to Common Problems

IMPORTANT

Before calling for service, review this list. It may save you both time and expense. This list

includes common experiences that are not the result of defective workmanship or material

in your cooktop.

SURFACE BURNERS DO NOT LIGHT

• Surface Control knob has not been completely turned to LITE. Push in and turn the

Surface Control knob to LITE until burner ignites and then turn control knob to desired

ﬂame size.

• Be sure gas supply valve is open.

• Burner ports are clogged. Clean burners. See Cleaning the Burner Grates, Burner

Caps, Burner Heads in General Care & Cleaning section. With the burner off, clean

ports with a small-gauge wire or needle.

• Power cord is disconnected from outlet (Electric Ignition Models only). Be sure cord is

securely plugged into the outlet.

• Electrical power outage (electric ignition models only). Burners can be lit manually. See

Setting Surface Controls in this Use and Care Guide.

• Burner ports are clogged. With the burner off, clean ports by using a small-gauge wire

or needle.

• Moisture is present after cleaning. Lightly fan the ﬂame and allow burner to operate until

ﬂame is full. Dry the burners thoroughly following instructions in the General Cleaning

section.

• Dust particles in main line. Allow the burner to operate a few minutes until ﬂame turns

blue.

• In coastal areas, a slightly orange ﬂame is unavoidable due to salt air.
