C. Valve.

Turn the valve knob to the ON position. Place the ON/

 

 

OFF switch in the ON position. Take a reading with a

 

 

millivolt meter at the thermopile terminals. The millivolt

 

 

meter should read greater than 125mV. If the reading

 

 

is acceptable, and if the burner does not come on, re-

 

 

place the gas valve.

 

 

 

 

D. Plugged burner orifice.

Check the burner orifice for stoppage. Remove stop-

 

 

page.

 

 

 

 

E. Wall switch or wires.

Check the wall switch and wires for proper connec-

 

 

tions. Place the jumper wires across the terminals at

 

 

the wall switch. If the burner comes on, replace the

 

 

wall switch. If the wall switch is OK, place the jumper

 

 

wires across the wall switch wires at the gas valve. If

 

 

the burner comes on, the wires are faulty or connec-

 

 

tions are bad.

D. Glass installed improperly.

Check to ensure glass is installed properly. Replace

 

 

fixed glass panel assembly.

 

 

 

 

E. Thermopile or thermocouple.

Replace pilot if necessary.

 

 

 

 

F. Improper vent cap installation.

Check for proper installation and freedom from debris

 

 

or blockage.

 

 

 

6. Glass soots.

A. Flame impingement.

Adjust the log set so that the flame does not exces-

 

 

sively impinge on it. Refer to log instructions.

 

 

 

 

B. Improper air shutter setting.

Refer to manual for shutter set points. Ensure that set

 

 

point is correct for appliance/gas type. If unit has ad-

 

 

justable shutter, it may be necessary to increase shut-

 

 

ter opening.

 

 

 

 

C. Debris around air shutter.

Inspect the opening at the base of the burner. NO MA-

 

 

TERIAL SHOULD BE PLACED IN THIS OPENING.

and have no leaks.

 

 

Ensure that no debris has been placed at the base of,

 

 

or in the area of the air holes in the center of the base

 

 

pan beneath the burner.

 

 

Ensure that the glass is tightened properly on the unit,

 

 

particularly on top corners.
