CAUTION
Do not try to adjust heating levels by using the manual shutoff valve.
VARIABLE CONTROL OPERATION
The variable control valve can be set to any heat setting and flame height desired, by
simply turning the control knob until that setting is attained. Even the lowest setting
provides realistic, dancing yellow flames. Selecting higher settings produces greater
heat output. This results in increased heating comfort.

4. Wait five (5) minutes to clear out any gas. Then smell for gas, including near the

C-clockwise
to the PILOT

will allow air to bleed from the gas system.

pilot. The pilot is attached to the burner (see Figure 16, page 14). If needed, keep
pressing ignitor button until pilot lights.
Note:
If pilot does not light, contact a qualified service person or gas supplier
for repairs. Until repairs are made, light pilot with match. To light pilot with
match, see Manual Lighting Procedure on page 21.

release control knob.
Note:
If pilot goes out, repeat steps 3 through 7.
• If control knob does not pop out when released, contact a qualified service
person or gas supplier for repairs.
