INSPECTING PILOT AND BURNER FLAME PATTERNS

Periodically check pilot flame pattern and burner flame patterns often.
PILOT ASSEMBLY
The pilot assembly is factory preset for the proper flame. Alterations
may have occurred during shipping and handling. The pilot is located
on the back right hand side of the burner.
The flame must envelope 1/4" of top of the igniter/sensor and ground-
ing stem.
If your pilot assembly does not meet these requirements:
• Turn adjustment screw marked PILOT clockwise to decrease or
counterclockwise to increase the flame to proper size (see Figure
37, Page 17). Do not remove adjustment screw.
• see Troubleshooting, Page 21
BURNER FLAME PATTERN
Burner flames will be steady, not lifting or floating. Flames should
go up through the middle of log set. Flames should not "spill" to the
edges of pan or sides of log set.
Figure 40 shows a typical flame pattern. If burner flame pattern dif-
fers from that described:
• turn appliance off (see To Turn Off Gas to Appliance, Page 17)
• see Troubleshooting, Page 21

INSPECT VENTING SYSTEM
The appliance and venting system should be thoroughly inspected
before initial use and at least annually by a qualified service techni-
cian (inspection should include ensuring that venting system is
unobstructed and vent components are properly assembled and not
damaged). Homeowner must contact a qualified service technician
at once if any abnormal condition is observed.
If the venting system is disassembled for any reason, a qualified ser-
vice technician should follow vent installation instructions for proper
reassembly and proper sealing of the venting system components.
