INSPECTING BURNERS
Check pilot ame pattern and burner ame patterns often.
PILOT ASSEMBLY
The pilot assembly is factory preset for the proper ame height.
Alterations may have occurred during shipping and handling. Call
a qualied service person to readjust the pilot if necessary.
The height of the thermopile must be 3/8" to 1/2" above the pilot
ame as shown in Figure 53. The thermocouple must be at a height
of about 1/8" above the pilot ame. The ame from the pilot burner
must extend beyond both the thermocouple and thermopile.
If you pilot assembly does not meet these requirements:
• turn replace off (see To Turn Off Gas to Appliance, page 22)
• see Troubleshooting, page 25
BURNER FLAME PATTERN
Burner ames will be steady; not lifting or oating. Flame patterns
will be different from unit to unit and will vary depending on instal-
lation type and weather conditions.
If the vent conguration is installed incorrectly, the ames will lift
or "ghost". This can be dangerous. Inspect the ames after instal-
lation to ensure proper installation and performance.
Figure 54 shows a typical ame pattern for these models.
If burner ame pattern differs from that described:
• turn replace off (see To Turn Off Gas to Appliance, page 22)
• see Troubleshooting, page 25

and other airborne particles to cling to the glass surface. During
initial start-up a slight lm may form on the glass due to paint cur-
ing. The glass should be cleaned several times with a non-ammonia,
nonabrasive household cleaner and warm water after the rst two
weeks of operation. Thereafter, clean the glass two or three times
during each heating season, depending on the usage and circum-
stances present. Refer to Removing/Replacing Glass Door, page
19, when removing glass door for cleaning.
