1.The perimeter of the ceramic plaque [approximately the out- side 1/4"(6mm)] will not glow. A few small, hairline cracks may form over the surface of the ceramic plaques or at the edges of the ceramic plaques where they have been cemented into position on the burner assembly frame. These small, hairline cracks will not affect the operation or performance of the ceramic plaques.

A few small, hairline cracks may form over the surface of the ceramic plaques or at the edges of the ceramic plaques where they have been cemented into position on the burner assembly frame. These small, hairline cracks will not affect the operation or performance of the ceramic plaques. Only, when large cracks develop, with blue flames escaping from the large cracks, should you contact your QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSON.

A red-orange haze that is visible on the ceramic plaques is accept- able. A blue flame that rolls out at the top of the ceramic plaques indicates an accumulation of dust, lint or spider webs inside the casing assembly and main burner assembly.
