OPERATING HEATER

Continued

4.Wait five (5) minutes to clear out any gas. Then smell for gas, including near the floor. If you smell gas, STOP! Follow “B” in the safety information at the top of page 16. If you don’t smell gas, go to the next step.

5. Press in control knob, and turn counterclockwise C-clockwiseto pilot position.

Keep control knob pressed for five seconds.

Note: You may be running this heater for the first time after hooking up to gas supply. If so, the control knob may need to be pressed in for 30 seconds. This will allow air to bleed from the gas system.

If control knob does not pop up when released, contact a qualified service person or gas supplier for repairs.

6.With control knob pressed in, push down and release ignitor button. This will light pilot. The pilot is attached to the front of burner. If needed, keep pressing ignitor button until pilot lights.

Note: If pilot does not light, refer to Troubleshooting, pages 21 through 24. Also contact a qualified service person or gas supplier for repairs. Until repairs are made, light pilot with match, see Manual Lighting Procedure, page 19.
