IMPORTANT: Owner's should check pilot flame pattern and burner flame pattern often.

Incorrect flame patterns indicate the need for cleaning (see Care and Maintenance,

page 20 or service.

WARNING: Only a qualified service person should service and

repair heater. This includes maintenance requiring replacement or

alteration of components.

Figure 19 shows a correct pilot flame pattern.

Figure 20 shows an incorrect pilot flame pat-

tern. The incorrect pilot flame is not touching

the thermocouple. This will cause the ther-

mocouple to cool, which shuts the heater off.

If pilot flame pattern is incorrect, as shown

in Figure 20

• turn heater off (see To Turn Off Gas to Ap-

pliance, page 18)

• see Troubleshooting pages 22 through 25.

WARNING: If yellow tipping

occurs, your heater could produce

increased levels of carbon mon-

oxide. If the burner flame pattern

shows yellow tipping, follow in-

structions at bottom of this page.

Notice: Do not mistake orange flames with

yellow tipping. Dirt or other fine particles enter

the heater and burn causing brief patches of

orange flame.

Figure 21 shows a correct burner flame pattern. Figure 22 shows an incorrect burner flame

pattern. If burner flame pattern is incorrect as shown in Figure 22:

• turn heater off (see To Turn Off Gas to Appliance, page 18).

• see Troubleshooting pages 22 through 25.

Air is drawn into the burner through the holes in the fitting at the entrance to the burner. These

holes may become blocked with dust or lint. Periodically inspect these holes for any blockage

and clean as necessary. Blocked air holes will create soot.
