Step 14. Checking the System – With gas line installed run initial system checkout before closing up the front of the unit. Follow the pilot lighting instructions on page 16.
Note: Instructions are also found on the pull out panel located on the bottom surface of the appliance.
When first lighting the appliance, it will take a few minutes for the line to purge itself of air. Once purging is complete, the pilot and burner will light and operate as indicated in the instruc- tion manual. Subsequent lightings of the appli- ance will not require such purging. Inspect the pilot flame (remove logs, if necessary, handling carefully).
The pilot flame should be steady, not lifting or floating. Flame should be blue in color with traces of orange at the outer edge.
The top 3/8" (10 mm) at the pilot generator (thermopile) should be engulfed in the pilot flame (NG only).
Replace logs if removed for pilot inspection.
To light the burner; turn “ON” the optional remote wall switch (if installed) and rotate the gas valve control knob counterclockwise to the “ON” position.
