INSPECTING BURNERS
Check pilot flame pattern and burner flame patterns often.
PILOT FLAME PATTERN
Figure 24 shows a correct pilot flame pattern. Figure 25 shows an
incorrect pilot flame pattern. The incorrect pilot flame is not touching
the thermocouple. This will cause the thermocouple to cool. When the
thermocouple cools, the heater will shut down.
If pilot flame pattern is incorrect, as shown in Figure 25
• turn heater off (see To Turn Off Gas to Appliance, column 1)
• see Troubleshooting, pages 16 through 18

1. Follow steps 1 through 5 under Lighting Instructions, page 13.
2. Depress control knob and light pilot with match.
3. Keep control knob pressed in for 30 seconds after lighting
pilot. After 30 seconds, release control knob. Now follow
step 8 in Lighting Instructions, column 1.
THERMOSTAT CONTROL
OPERATION
The thermostat control knob can be set to any comfort level
between HI and LO. The thermostat will gradually modulate
the heat output and flame height from higher to lower settings,
or pilot, in order to maintain the comfort level you select. The
ideal comfort setting will vary by household depending upon the
amount of space to be heated, the output of the central heating
system, etc.
Note:
Selecting the HI setting with the control knob will cause
the burner to remain fully on, without modulating down in most
cases.
