I bought a C&C 30 mkll in September 2020 and i had trouble lighting the stove the first time. Discovered my operator error of not pushing the control knob in while trying to lite burner. Then discovered that you had to hold it in for about 5 to 10 seconds after the burner ignited to get it to stay on. Kevin Hartig Sv Kilgharrah C &C 30 mkll
