OPERATING

OPTIONAL BLOWER

ACCESSORY

Locate the blower controls by opening the lower door on the stove. Blower controls are located on the left side of the switch bracket to the left just inside the door.

Both the GA3700 manual blower and the DA3610T thermostatically-controlled blower have an ON setting and an OFF setting. The blower will only run when the switch is in the ON position. In the OFF position, the blower will not operate.

Note for DA3610T Only: If you are using DA3610T blower with optional thermo- stat (wall mount or remote control) for the burner system, your burner system and blower will not turn on and off at the same time. The burner system may run for sev- eral minutes before the blower turns on. After the burner system modulates to the pilot position, the blower will continue to run. The blower will shut off after the burner system temperature decreases.

The blower helps distribute heated air from the burner system. Periodically check the air passageways of the burner system and remove any dust, dirt, or other ob- structions that will hinder the flow of air.

THERMOSTAT

WARNING: Do not connect the thermostat to a power source. Electrical shock and/or a fire haz- ard will occur.

Light the burner system as instructed in Lighting Instructions on page 24. Set wall thermostat to desired temperature.

Upon installation, the thermostat must be allowed to stabilize at room tempera- ture for a minimum of 30 minutes for proper operation.

To turn the burner system off, adjust thermostat to the lowest setting and turn the gas control knob back to PILOT. The pilot will remain lit.

IMPORTANT: To turn the pilot off, turn the gas control knob on the burner sys- tem to the OFF position.

INSPECTING

BURNERS

Check pilot flame pattern and burner flame patterns often.

PILOT ASSEMBLY

The pilot assembly is factory preset for the proper flame height. Alterations may have occurred during shipping and handling. Call a qualified service person to readjust the pilot if necessary.

The height of the thermopile must be 3/8" to 1/2" above the pilot flame as shown in Figure

61.The thermocouple must be at a height of about 1/8" above the pilot flame. The flame from the pilot burner must extend beyond both the thermocouple and thermopile.

If your pilot assembly does not meet these requirements:

turn burner system off (see To Turn Off Gas to Appliance, page 24)

BURNER FLAME PATTERN

Burner flames will be steady; not lifting or floating. Flame patterns will be different from unit to unit and will vary depending on installation type and weather conditions.

If the vent configuration is installed incor- rectly, the flames will lift or "ghost". This can be dangerous. Inspect the flames after installation to ensure proper installation and performance.
