purchased separately (see Accessories, Pages
34-35). Follow instructions included with the

After lighting, let pilot fl ame burn for about one
minute. Turn control knob to ON position. Adjust
fl ame adjustment knob anywhere between HI and
LO. Slide the selector switch to the REMOTE posi-
tion (see Figure 53).
NOTE: The burner may light if hand-held remote
was on when selector switch was last turned off.
You can now turn burner on and off with hand-held
remote control unit.
Check pilot fl ame pattern and burner fl ame pat-
terns often.
PILOT FLAME PATTERN
Figure 54 shows a correct pilot fl ame pattern.
Figure 55 shows an incorrect pilot fl ame pattern.
The incorrect pilot fl ame is not touching the ther-
mocouple. This will cause the thermocouple to
cool. When the thermocouple cools, the appliance
will shut down.
If pilot fl ame pattern is incorrect, as shown in
Figure 55.
• turn appliance off (see To Turn Off Gas to Appli-
ance, Page 26
• see Troubleshooting, Page 29
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.
