Vermont Castings VCBVMN/MP & VCPVMN/MP Room Heaters
Pilot and Burner Inspection
Each time you light your heater check that the pilot flame and burner flame patterns are as shown in Figures 9, 10 and 11. If flame patterns are incorrect, turn the heater off. Contact your dealer or a qualified gas technician for assistance. Do not operate the heater until the pilot flame is correct.
WARNING: If yellow tipping occurs, your heater could produce increased levels of carbon monoxide. If burner flame pattern shows yellow tipping, follow instructions in the Troubleshooting section on page 10. NOTE: Do not mistake orange flames with yellow tipping. Dirt or other particles may enter the heater and cause tran- sient patches of orange flame.
