THERMOSTAT CONTROL

OPERATION

You can set the thermostat control knob to any comfort level between HI and LO. The thermo- stat will gradually modulate the heat output and flame height from higher to lower settings or pilot, in order to maintain the comfort level you select. The ideal comfort setting will vary by household depending upon the amount of space to be heated, the output of the central heating system, etc.

Note: Selecting the HI setting will cause the burner to remain on without modulating down in most cases.
