Pilot Flame Pattern (Figure 4)
Figure 4 shows a correct pilot flame pattern. The correct flame will
be blue and will extend beyond the thermopile. The flame will sur-
round the thermopile just below the tip. A slight yellow flame may
occur where the pilot flame and main burner flame meet.
After use, cleaning of the pilot burner may be required for the proper
flame. The pilot orifice can be cleaned with high pressure air or
by placing under running water. Pilot orifice must be dry before
replacement. Use a pipe cleaner to clean inside the pilot after the
pilot orifice has been removed.
To Remove Pilot orifice
1. Disconnect the pilot supply line at the pilot burner.
2. Remove pilot orifice from pilot burner. It may be necessary to
tap on pilot burner in order to remove the pilot orifice.

Always keep the appliance area clear and free from combustible
materials, gasoline, and other flammable vapors and liquids.
Never obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air. Keep the
front of the appliance clear of all obstacles and materials.
cleaning Instructions
This appliance is built using mostly high-grade stainless steel to
resist rust-through. In outdoor applications, all stainless steel will
develop a dull patina and, depending on the local environment

Main Burner Flame Pattern
The main burner flame will be completely yellow.
Main Burner Flame Ignition and extinction
When the main burner is ignited it will take a few seconds for the
full flame pattern to develop.
When the main burner is extinguished it will take a few seconds for
the flames to disappear.
and on the materials used in the installation, may develop some
surface oxidation (rust). This does not affect the performance of
the fireplace, and does not require any action to correct. If you
prefer keeping your fireplace front looking factory-fresh, clean it as
required with stainless steel cleaner.
When installation application includes highly acidic applications
such as mortar or stone etching, do not remove the protective
PVC film from the stainless steel until after this application is com-
plete. Once the film has been removed we recommend that the
appliance be cleaned with a stainless steel cleaner immediately.
Please note that areas where the film has been formed (corners,
hems, etc.) may require extra cleaning due to the properties of
the film. Ensure that all protective film has been removed from the
fireplace prior to burning the appliance.
