A.STANDING PILOT OPERATION

1.Initial and Seasonal Lighting Procedure. Initial lighting constitutes the first time the appliance has been lit after installation. Seasonal lighting refers to lighting the appliance after it has been unused and the gas valve has been turned to OFF.

Be sure the remote wall switch and the gas knob (located behind the lower access panel) have been turned to the OFF position. See Figure 35. Also, your unit may have a rocker ON/OFF switch installed inside the lower panel; it if does, this also needs to be turned to the OFF position. If they are not, do so and allow the appliance to sit for five min- utes so any gas that may have accumulated in the main burner compartment escapes.

Turn the manual on/off valve to ON. Turn the gas knob to PILOT, as shown in Figure 36, and press in. While holding it in, light the pilot by pressing the red ignitor button, shown in Figure 37, several times until the pilot ignites. Continue to hold in the gas knob for about one minute after the pilot is lit. Release the gas knob. The pilot should remain lit. If it goes out, turn everything to the OFF position, let it sit for five minutes and repeat this step again.

When the pilot remains lit, turn the gas knob to the ON position. See Figure 38. You may now turn the remote wall switch to the ON position which will turn on the main burner. Initially, the flames may resem- ble more of a blue color but after the first 20 minutes of operation, they will become more yellow.

Note: When first operated, this unit may release an odor for the first several hours. This is caused by the curing of the paint and the burning off of any oils remaining from manufacturing.

2.Seasonal Shutdown. When the burning season comes to an end, the entire system should be shut down. This way, no gas will be running to the appliance while it is not in use.

To shut down the appliance for a long period of time, you must first shut off the main burner by moving the remote wall switch (and the ON/OFF rocker switch, if applicable) to the OFF position.

Next step, remove the lower access panel to expose the valve area. (Follow Step 1 on page 18.) Locate the gas knob and turn it to the PILOT position. Press in and continue turning to the OFF position. Turn the manual ON/OFF valve to OFF. Your entire system is now shut down.

3.Lighting Procedure During Regular Use. Simply turn the wall switch to the ON position. This will ignite the main burner.

4.Shutdown During Regular Use. Simply turn the remote wall switch to OFF. This will disengage the burner and the flames will extinguish. The pilot light will continue to burn.
