Burner Flame Check

Steel Burner: These models are equipped with self-adjusting air mixture and
do not have an adjustable air shutter (see Figure 8). At periodic intervals a
visual check of the main burner and pilot flames should be made to determine if
they are burning properly. The main burner flame should light smoothly from
the pilot.
DO NOT run out of propane gas. Damage to the water heater may occur.
Water heaters are heat producing appliances. To avoid damage or
injury there must be no materials stored against the water heater or
vent-air intake system, and proper care must be taken to avoid
unnecessary contact (especially by children) with the water heater and
vent-air intake system.
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD FLAMMABLE MATERIALS,
SUCH AS GASOLINE OR PAINT THINNER BE USED OR STORED
IN THE VICINITY OF THIS WATER HEATER, VENT-AIR INTAKE
SYSTEM OR IN ANY LOCATION FROM WHICH FUMES COULD
REACH THE WATER HEATER OR VENT-AIR INTAKE SYSTEM.
The water heater should be inspected at a minimum annually by a
qualified service technician for damaged components and/or joints
not sealed. DO NOT operate this water heater if any part is found
damaged or if any joint is found not sealed.
