LIGHTING PILOT FOR THE FIRST TIME
APPROVED LEAK TESTING METHOD
You may check for gas leaks with the following methods only:
•
Soap and water solution
•
An approved leak testing spray
•
Electronic sniffer
NOTE: Remove any excessive pipe compound from the connections. Excessive pipe compound
can set off electronic sniffers.
WARNING: NEVER use open flame
to check for gas leaks.
Check for gas leaks in each of the following locations:
•
Pipe from the gas supply line connection to the gas valve
•
Burner connections
•
Pilot
•
Each joint or connection
WARNING: The control has an interlock device that does not allow the lighting of the
fireplace up to the moment the safety device of the flame has not interrupted the gas
flow. After that period of time (when the magnet is closed), it is possible to start the
lighting operation.
The gas control knob is designed to be operated by hand. DO NOT use any tools during this
operation. Damaged knobs may result in serious injury.
1. Depress and turn knob counterclockwise
2. Depress fully and hold pilot gas knob. Depress piezo igniter as many times as needed to ignite pilot.
Keep knob fully depressed for a few seconds. Release and check that pilot continues to burn.
If the pilot does not stay lit, repeat steps 1 and 2.
