This provides a clean burning flame. Keep these holes clearof dust, dirt, lint, and pet hair. Clean these air inlet holes prior to eachheating season. Blocked air holes will create soot. We recommendthat you clean the unit every three months during operation and haveheater inspected yearly by a qualified service person.We also recommend that you keep the burner tube and pilotassembly clean and free of dust and dirt. To clean these parts werecommend using compressed air no greater than 30 PSI. Your localcomputer store, hardware store, or home center may carry com-pressed air in a can. You can use a vacuum cleaner in the blowposition. If using compressed air in a can, please follow the direc-tions on the can. If you don't follow directions on the can, you coulddamage the pilot assembly.1. Shut off the unit, including the pilot. Allow the unit to cool forat least thirty minutes.2. Inspect burner, pilot, and primary air inlet holes on injectorholder for dust and dirt (see Figure 38).3. Blow air through the ports/slots and holes in the burner.4. Check the injector holder located at the end of the burner tubeagain. Remove any large particles of dust, dirt, lint, or pet hairwith a soft cloth or vacuum cleaner nozzle.5. Blow air into the primary air holes on the injector holder.6. In case any large clumps of dust have now been pushed intothe burner repeat steps 3 and 4.Clean the pilot assembly also. A yellow tip on the pilot flameindicates dust and dirt in the pilot assembly. There is a small pilotair inlet hole about two inches from where the pilot flame comes outof the pilot assembly (see Figure 39). With the unit off, lightly blowair through the air inlet hole.
