How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off the burner if the flame appears unsafe or produces soot. Avoid inhaling fumes.

  • Clean burner: Remove and clean the burner head and cap. Ensure all ports are clear.
  • Check cap position: Make sure the cap is correctly seated and not tilted.
  • Verify gas type: Confirm the hob is set up for your gas type (natural gas vs LPG). If converted, ensure the correct Candy injector set is installed.
  • Professional adjustment: If flames remain yellow or noisy, a gas technician should adjust the air shutters and verify gas pressure.
