INSPECTING BURNERS

Check pilot flame pattern and burner flame pat- terns often.

PILOT FLAME PATTERN

Figure 34 shows a correct pilot flame pattern. Figure 35 shows an incorrect pilot flame pattern. The incorrect pilot flame is not touching the ther- mocouple. This will cause the thermocouple to cool. When the thermocouple cools, the fireplace will shut down.

If pilot flame pattern is incorrect, as shown in Figure 35

turn fireplace off (see To Turn Off Gas to Ap- pliance, page 20 or 22, depending on your model.)

see Troubleshooting, page 27

FRONT BURNER FLAME PATTERN

Figure 36 shows correct front burner flame pat- tern. Figure 37 shows incorrect front burner flame pattern. The incorrect burner flame pattern shows yellow tipping at top of blue flame.

If front burner flame pattern is incorrect, as shown in Figure 37
