It is normal to hear a soft whistling noise while the burner is operating.
When first used, it is normal for the burner to give off odours. This does not pose any risk and does not indicate a malfunction. They will disappear in time.
An orange-coloured flame is normal. This is caused by the presence of dust in the atmosphere, spilt liquids, etc.
If the burner flames are accidentally blown out, switch off the burner operating control knob and do not try to relight it for at least 1 minute.
A few seconds after the burner is switched off, a sound (thud) will be produced. This is not a fault - this means that the safety device is no longer operating.
