is more visible at night. Burner will display tongues of blue flame.
These flames should not be yellow or produce thick black smoke,
indicating an obstruction of airflow through the burners.
Operation pressure checked:
If the flame is very small, this is because the supply pressure is not
enough. Please refill gas cylinder.
