Starting The Pilot Flame

The pilot flame is required to ignite the main burners (it also plays a safety role). It should be left on once lit. It will stay lit unless the gas control valve is turned to "OFF". However, the pilot will go out if the gas is shut off, the propane tank runs out (or low) or if the stove malfunctions. If the pilot turns off frequently, call your dealer for information. To start the pilot follow the directions below:

W A R N I N G:

When lighting or re-lighting the pilot, the glass must be removed (see page 2 2 ) .

aRemove the glass (see page 22 for details).

bPush the gas control knob in slightly and turn it to the "OFF" position. The knob will not turn from "ON" to "OFF" unless the knob is depressed slightly. Wait five minutes to let any gas that may have accumulated inside the firebox escape. If you smell leaking gas, follow the directions on the cover "IF YOU SMELL GAS".

cTurn the gas control knob to the "PILOT" position and press the knob in, this will allow gas to flow to the pilot light. Press the button on the pilot igniter repeatedly until you see the pilot light.

WARNING:

If the pilot does not light after 15 seconds, release the knob and call your dealer for service. Do not attempt to light pilot until service has been performed.

N O T E :

You may wish to remove the log set to gain a better view of the pilot (see page 2 4 ) .

dKeep the gas control knob depressed for 30 seconds once it is lit.

eRelease the gas control knob. If the pilot goes out, repeat step C. If the pilot refuses to stay lit, call your dealer for service. With the pilot lit, proceed to step “f”.

N O T E :

If the gas control knob is turned to “OFF” after the pilot has been lit for several seconds, the knob will not turn. This safety feature prevents gas from entering the firebox.

fReplace the glass.

gTurn the gas control knob counter-clockwise to "ON". The pilot is now lit and the heater can be turned on and off.
