Troubleshooting
Burner not igniting
Check that the gas supply is turned on. Ensure the burner cap is correctly seated and dry. Clean the igniter spark plug if it appears dirty or wet.
Flame is weak or uneven
Verify the gas control knob is fully turned to the desired setting. Check that the burner holes are not blocked by debris. Ensure the pan support grids are correctly positioned.
Gas smell detected
Immediately turn off the gas supply at the main valve. Do not operate any electrical switches or open flames. Ventilate the area by opening windows and doors. Contact a qualified gas engineer.
