LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS

1.STOP! Read all safety information included with and on the side of heater.

2.Check that gas supply to heater is on.

3.Push in gas control knob and slightly turn clockwise to the OFF position (see figure 16).

Note: Knob cannot be turned from PILOT to OFF unless knob is pushed in slightly. Do not force.

4.Wait five (5) minutes. Then smell for gas, including near the floor. If you smell gas, STOP! Follow “B” in the safety information above. If you do not smell gas, go to the next step.

5.Push in gas control knob slightly and turn counterclockwise to PILOT/IGN and depress for five (5) seconds.

Note: The first time that the heater is operated after connecting the gas supply, the control knob should be depressed for about 30 seconds. This will allow air to bleed from the gas system.

6.Push in control knob and rotate control knob back to OFF position then rotate counterclock- wise to PILOT/IGN position. This will light pilot. If needed, gently keep rotating control knob back and forth while depressed until pilot lights.

7.Keep control knob depressed in for ten (10) seconds after lighting pilot. If pilot goes out, repeat steps 4, 5, 6 and 7.

•If pilot does not stay lit, refer to Troubleshooting, pages 14 & 15. Also, contact a qualified service person or gas supplier for repairs.

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

8.FOR IR10LP: When the pilot is lit, turn the control knob to “LO” position to light heater. Leave on “LO” position until first burner tile has turned bright red (See figure18).

FOR BF10LP: When the pilot is lit, turn the control knob to “HI” position to light heater.

9.FOR IR10LP: After first burner tile has turned bright red, adjust heat output by turning control knob to desired position (“LO” or “HI”, figure 18). Do not operate heater between locked positions.

FOR BF10LP: After flame is established (see Burner Flame Pattern, Pages 12 and 13) on “HI”, adjust heat output by turning control knob to desired position (“LO” or “HI”). Do not operate heater between locked positions.
