Flame Characteristics

It is important to periodically perform a visual check of the pilot and the burner flames. Compare them to the Figure 22 and Figure 23 or 24. If any of the flames appear abnormal call a service person.

First Firing

Upon completing the gas line connec- tion, a small amount of air will be in the lines. When first lighting unit with pilot light, it will take a few minutes to purge themselves of this air. Once the purging is complete, the pilot and burner will light and operate as indicated in the instruction manual. Subsequent lightings of the heater will not require such purging.

When lit for the first time, the appli- ance will emit a slight odor for awhile. This is due to paint and lubricants used in the manufacturing process. After each lighting, vapor may con- dense and fog the glass; this moisture disappears within a few minutes of burning.
