OPERATION / MAINTENANCE

Purge all gas lines with the glass door open. Assure that a continuous gas flow is at the burner before closing the door. Allow several minutes (5-15) for the flame to stabi- lize after ignition.

SPILL SWITCH

This is a thermally activated switch, attached to the back of the chimney adapter, which senses the change in temperature and shuts down the gas valve in the event of a severe downdraft of air or a blocked or disconnected vent. It acts as a safety shut-off to prevent a build up of carbon monoxide or an explosion

of unburnt gases during start up. If the flue is blocked or has no "draw", the spill switch will automatically shut off the supply of gas within about 5-10 minutes.

TAMPERING WITH THE SWITCH CAN RESULT IN CAR- BON MONOXIDE (CO) POISONING AND POSSIBLE DEATH.
