My flame is too yellow / too blue
My FSD is not functioning correctly
Gas burner for Ooni will not maintain
it's flame
I can hear a 'roaring sound' coming

2. Cracking or leaking from the hose

Variation in the environment, the food
you cook, ambient temperature and
condition of your Ooni oven may effect
the colour of your flame
There may be soot build up on my FSD
probe
1. Lack of oxygen
2. Oven placed on an uneven surface
Flame is burning within the ventures
Prevention / Solution
1. Ensure there is no cracking or leaking
on the hose
2. Ensure the regulator is properly
fixed in the gas line assembly by
leak testing and the hose is firmly
attached to the gas burner tightened
using appropriate sized wrenches as
outlined in the instruction manual
3 Your gas burner and oven should not
be used in extreme conditions (eg
high wind)
1. Ensure the chimney cap is removed
and the ceiling vents and chimney
vent are open. The door should be
open.
2. Ensure there is no cracking or leaking
on the hose
3. Turning the dial too quickly may
prevent the gas burner from lighting.
4. Ensure the regulator is properly
fixed in the gas line assembly by
leak testing and the hose is firmly
attached to the gas burner tightened
using appropriate sized wrenches as
outlined in the instruction manual
5. Reposition the sparker tip so it is
2-3 mm away from the front of the
burner cap.
The colour of your flame will
not affect the taste or quality of
your food.
Ensure the gas burner and gas supply is
switched off, wait for the burner to cool
down, gently clean the probe and burner
holes with damp cloth, leave the burner
to fully dry before re-lighting.
1. Open the chimney vent of your Ooni
Karu 16 to encourage better airflow
through the oven
2. If your Ooni is on a slant when set up,
the oxygen will not flow as well. Try
to set up on a flat surface.
Switch off the gas supply and the gas
burner immediately, wait 5 minutes and
relight the gas burner.
