INSPECTING BURNER
Check pilot fl ame pattern and burner fl ame patterns often.
PILOT FLAME PATTERN
Figure 16 shows a correct pilot fl ame pat tern. Figure 17 shows an
incorrect pilot fl ame pattern. The incorrect pilot fl ame is not touch ing
the thermo couple. This will cause the thermo couple to cool. When
the thermo couple cools, the appliance will shut down.
If pilot fl ame pattern is incorrect, as shown in Figure 17
• turn appliance off (see To Turn Off Gas to Appliance, page 12
• see Troubleshooting, pages 14 through 16
Note: The pilot fl ame on natural gas units will have a slight curve,
but fl ame should be blue and have no yellow or orange color.

pliance, causing brief patches of orange fl ame.

• turn appliance off (see To Turn Off Gas to Appliance, page 12
• see Troubleshooting, pages 14 through 16
