  • Excessive heat around cookware on cooktop
  • Cookware and flame are not matched.
The cookware should be centered above the burner with the bottom sitting level on the grate. The flame should be adjustedso that it does not extend up the sides of the pan. Surface burner flames are uneven, yellow and/or noisy
  • Clogged burner ports Burner caps positioned improperly Range converted improperly
  • See "Sealed Surface Burners" section. See "Sealed Surface Burners" section. If propane gas is being used, contact a service technician or see cover for contact information.
