Check pilot flame pattern and burner flame patterns often.
PILOT ASSEMBLY
The pilot assembly is factory preset for the proper flame height.
Alterations may have occurred during shipping and handling. Call a
qualified service person to readjust the pilot if necessary.
The height of the thermopile must be 3/8" to 1/2" above the pilot
flame as shown in Figure 20. The thermocouple must be at a height
of about 1/8" above the pilot flame. The flame from the pilot burner
must extend beyond both the thermocouple and thermopile.
If you pilot assembly does not meet these requirements:
• turn fireplace off (see To Turn Off Gas to Appliance)
• see Troubleshooting, page 16
BURNER FLAME PATTERN
Figure 21 shows correct burner flame pattern.
NOTICE: Do not mistake orange flames with yellow
tipping. Dirt or other fine particles are burned by ap-
pliance, causing brief patches of orange flame.
If burner flame pattern is incorrect, as shown in Figure 22.
• turn appliance off (see To Turn Off Gas to Appliance)
• see Troubleshooting, page 16
