2. Connect the cooktop to the gas supply.
3. Turn the switch knob counterclockwise to the highest setting (Figure 010-18,
Item 1) and release it.

6. If the flame goes out, check whether the burner head openings are blocked.
7. Clean the burner head, if necessary.
8. If the flame goes out again, check whether the correct jets are installed for
the type of gas in use (see Table C-3).
9. If incorrect jets are installed, replace them with jets with the correct diameter.
10. Check whether the flame burns at the low setting; see Figure 010-18, Item 2.
11. If the flame goes out, check whether a draft is the cause.
12. If this is not the cause, then possibly the thermocouple is not being heated
sufficiently; see Thermocouple Test, Section 010-4.8.
4.7.2
