NOTE: It is normal for slight yellow tipping of the flames to
appear after a few minutes of operation using Propane (LP)
Gas. Orange-colored streaks in the flame are produced
from burning airborne debris; this is normal during initial
start up and should dissipate within a few minutes of
operation.
Yellow Flames:
Further adjustment is required.
Yellow Tips on Outer Cones:
Normal for LP Gas
Soft Blue Flames:
Normal for Natural Gas
2. Turn valve to SIM to see that the flame continues to
wrap around the burner. Blow out the flame, or use a
quick fan motion from a writing tablet or piece of
cardboard to extinguish the flame, and then observe
the burner's ability to reignite and wrap around (also
called "carry-over") the burner within several seconds.
This flame "carry-over" is essential for proper burner
ignition and reignition.
3. Test reignition of the XLO
of the small simmer flames as the XLO system cycles
the burners on and off.
•
If the flame performance is not acceptable it may
be necessary to readjust the valve screw for a top
burner that does not have sufficient carry-over of
the flame. Turn the valve screw very slightly
counter-clockwise until carry-over of the flame is
acceptable. (See Setting Valve Screws for the
®
STAR
Burners).
•
If the burner flame is uneven, flutters, makes
excessive noise, or lifts, some of the slots in the
burner base may be blocked with food spillage or
other debris. Clogged slots can be cleared using a
straightened paper clip, needle, or similar object.
Hard-to-remove, encrusted food or debris can
sometimes be removed using a steel wool pad or
fine wire brush.
4. Burner flames that are "lazy", with excessively-long
flames, can be created by an incorrectly fitted burner
cap—from which many of the outer mantles of the
individual flames will tend to "coalesce" or blend
together.
®
and observe the carry-over
Verify that the burner cap is seated properly on its
burner base. The cap should fit reasonably flat when
correctly-positioned on the base and not rock
significantly.

5. Repeat the Ignition and Flame Test procedures for
each rangetop burner.
