•VISUAL INSPECTION OF FLAME
Check that the pilot and burner flames are operating normally.
If the flames appear either very short or very long and streaky or are producing smoke or soot deposits then there may be a problem with the heater or the gas supply.
A heater should not be used if you suspect there may be a problem, and a service agent must be called to investigate the cause of the problem.
