**Before following the steps below, please read the following safety advice:**
* Always stand clear of your oven when igniting - ensure nobody is within 1 meter (3ft) of the front of the oven.
* Always allow 5-minute intervals between lighting attempts. This is to allow time for any gas to disperse.
* Read through the safety manual for your region:

**If you have an uneven flame in your ****oven, follow the steps below:**
1. **Remove blockages from the burner surface**
* Ensure the oven and gas burner have cooled down
* Remove the gas burner and take a can of compressed air and give the burner a good blast around the area the flames come out.
* Once you've given it a good blast, insert the gas burner back into the oven, and run the gas burner for 30 minutes
* We recommend doing this every so often as part of a normal cleaning/service
2. **Remove blockages from inside the burner**
* Ensure the oven and gas burner have cooled down
* Remove the gas hose from the burner
* Push in the gas control dial and blast compressed air through the stem where the hose attaches to the burner.
* Reconnect the gas hose and run the oven for 30 minutes
3. **Change the gas bottle**
* A new gas bottle can make all the difference, especially if the one you're using is less than half full
4. **Swap out the gas regulator**
* If you have a spare regulator on hand, try swapping it over
