If you don’t smellgas, go to the next step.5. Press in control knob and turn counter-clockwise C-clockwise to the PILOT posi-tion. Keep control knob pressed in forfive (5) seconds (see Figure 23, page 16).• If control knob does not pop out whenreleased, contact a qualified serviceperson or gas supplier for repairs.Note: You may be running thisheater for the first time after hook-ing up to gas supply. If so, the con-trol knob may need to be pressed infor 30 seconds. This will allow air tobleed from the gas system.6. With control knob pressed in, press andrelease ignitor button. This will lightpilot. The pilot is attached to the frontburner. If needed, keep pressing igni-tor button until pilot lights.Note: If pilot does not light, contacta qualified service person or gas sup-plier for repairs. Until repairs aremade, light pilot with match. To lightpilot with match, see ManualLighting Procedure.7. Keep control knob pressed in for 30seconds after lighting pilot. After 30seconds, release control knob.Note: If pilot goes out, repeat steps3 through 7.8. Push in and turn control knob coun-terclockwise C-clockwise to the HIGHposition. Both burners should light.Set control knob to desired setting.OPERATINGHEATERContinuedTO TURN OFF GASTO APPLIANCEShutting Off Heater1.

Nowfollow step 8, column 1.WARNING: Do not operateheater between pilot and high.CAUTION: Do not try to adjustheating levels by using themanual shutoff valve.VARIABLE CONTROLOPERATIONThe variable control valve can be set toany heat setting and flame height desiredbetween high and low by simply turningthe control knob until that setting is at-tained. Even the lowest setting providesrealistic flames and glowing embers fromtwo burners. Selecting higher settings pro-duces greater heat output. This results inincreased heating comfort.Figure 24 - PilotThermocouple Ignitor ElectrodePilot BurnerINSPECTINGBURNERSCheck pilot flame pattern and burner flamepatterns often.PILOT FLAME PATTERNFigure 25 shows a correct pilot flame pattern.Figure 26 shows an incorrect pilot flamepattern. The incorrect pilot flame is not touch-ing the thermocouple. This will cause thethermocouple to cool. When the thermo-couple cools, the heater will shut down.If pilot flame pattern is incorrect, as shownin Figure 26• turn heater off (see To Turn Off Gas toAppliance, page 16 [Thermostat-Con-trolled Models] or page 17 or [VariableManually-Controlled Models])• see Troubleshooting, pages 19 through 21ThermocoupleFigure 25 - Correct Pilot Flame PatternPilot BurnerThermocoupleFigure 26 - Incorrect Pilot Flame PatternPilot BurnerContinued
