INSPECTING BURNER
Check pilot flame pattern and burner flame pattern often.
PILOT FLAME PATTERN
Figure 18 shows a correct pilot flame pattern. Figure 19 shows an incorrect pilot flame pattern. The incorrect pilot flame is not touching the thermocouple. This will cause the thermocouple to cool. When the thermocouple cools, the heater will shut down.
If pilot flame pattern is incorrect, as shown in Figure 19
•turn heater off (see To Turn Off Gas to Appliance, page 10)
•see Troubleshooting, pages 13 through 15

Figure 19 - Incorrect Pilot Flame Pattern
BURNER FLAME PATTERN
Figure 20 shows a correct burner flame pattern. Figure 21 shows an incorrect burner flame pattern. The incorrect burner flame pattern shows yellow tipping of the flame. It also shows the flame higher than 1/2 the glass panel height.
WARNING: If yellow tipping occurs, your heater could produce increased levels of carbon monoxide. If burner flame pattern shows yellow tipping, see the following instructions.
NOTICE: Do not mistake orange flames with yellow tipping. Dust or other fine particles enter the heater and burn causing brief patches of orange flame.
If burner flame pattern is incorrect, as shown in Figure 23
•turn heater off (see To Turn Off Gas to Appliance, page 10)
•see Troubleshooting, pages 13 through 15
When the propane/LP supply cylinder is not disconnected from the heater, the heater and the cylinder must be stored outdoors, in a well ventilated space, out of reach of children. Do not store in a building, garage or any other enclosed area.
Storage of the heater is permissible only if the cylinder is discon- nected and removed from the heater. Cylinders must be stored outdoors out of reach of children. Do not store in a building, garage or any other enclosed area.
1.Store propane tank(s) in safe manner. See Chapter 5 of Stan- dard for Storage and Handling of Liquefied Petroleum Gases, ANSI/NFPA 58. Follow all local codes. Always store propane tanks outdoors.
2.Place plastic cover caps over brass fittings on inlet connector and hose/regulator assembly.
3.Store in dry, clean, and safe place. Do not store hose/regulator assembly inside heater combustion chamber.
