Q. How do you use a single burner gas stove?

Answer

If your gas stove includes a separate igniter you will need to push it in with one hand while turning the burner-specific knob with your other hand. Electricity is used to power the igniter which produces a spark that is then used to ignite the gas. While you are pressing the igniter you will hear a clicking sound which is an indication that it is sparking. When one of the knobs is turned the gas line will be opened up and the flames will begin to erupt when the gas comes into contact with the spark. An alternative form of gas stove is equipped with an igniter that is incorporated right into each of the burner knobs. A clicking sound will be audible whenever you turn any of the knobs on the burners; this will let you know if the igniter is working. Turn the knob in a clockwise direction until you see flames and the click sound stops. When operating a gas stove for the first time it may seem counter-intuitive to continue rotating the knob in order to obtain a lower flame since the flames normally start out high. However this is necessary in order to attain the desired lower flame.
