OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING

Wait 30 seconds before readjusting the heater when the control has been turned down to a lower setting.

MATCH LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS

If the pilot will not light using the piezo ignitor, you can light the pilot with a match. First, locate the pilot. The pilot is located between the two burner tubes on the right end (facing the unit), inside the firebox. To light pilot with a match, move the gas control (knob 1, pg. 12) to the pilot position and hold down. Light match and place near pilot. Once pilot is lit, continue to hold the knob for about ten seconds. Then follow steps 7 thru 10 on page 12.

CHECKING FLAME APPEARANCE

Flames from the pilot, front and rear burner should be visually checked when the heater is installed. In addition a periodic visual check of the flames should be made.

PILOT FLAME

The pilot flame should always be present when the heater is in operation and should just touch the top of the thermocouple tip (FIGURE 9).

If the pilot flame does not touch the thermocouple, then the main burner is unlikely to function reliably (FIG- URE 10).
