INSPECTING
BURNER
Check pilot flame pattern and
burner flame pattern often.
PILOT FLAME PATTERN
Figure 20 shows a correct pilot

thermocouple cools, the heater will
shut down. If pilot flame pattern is
incorrect, as shown in Figure 21:
l turn heater off (see To Turn
Off Gas To Appliance on page
12 for non-thermostat model or
page 11 for thermostat model)
