Checking
Burner Cap Placement
•
Check each burner to make sure there is no gap
between the burner cap and burner base. See
Figure 13 and Figure 14 for examples of correct and
incorrect placements of the burner cap.
•
You may gently try to move the burner caps from side
to side to check if the caps are properly placed on the
burner bases. When properly placed, each burner cap
will rest flat on top of its burner base, and completely
cover the star-shape of the burner base when viewed
from the top as shown in Figure 13.
Burner Cap Placement
The burner caps must be properly placed on the STAR
burner bases for the rangetop to function properly. If the
burner cap is not properly placed, one or more of the
following problems may occur.
•
Burner flames are too high.
•
Flames shoot out of burners.
•
Burners do not ignite.
•
Burner flames light unevenly.
•
Burner emits gas odor.
WARNING:
To prevent burns, do not touch burner caps or grates
while hot. Turn the rangetop off and allow the burners to
cool.
