IMPORTANT
On new installations, there will be air trapped in the gas
supply line feeding the appliance. The air will gradually
be purged out by gas when the heater is first lit, so it
might take slightly longer to light the pilot.
In cool or cold temperatures on initial start-up, the vinyl
cap covering the pilot button may be stiff. You may
want to remove this cap to make lighting the pilot
easier. Put the vinyl cap back on over pilot button, after
the pilot has been lit.
3.
Connect the electrical cord to an approved electrical
supply.
4. Set thermostat to desired room temperature. The
heater will light.
5.
If gas flame is interrupted and flame goes out, wait a
minimum of five minutes, or until gas clears away
before relighting.
6.
Do not exceed input rating stamped on nameplate of
appliance, or manufacturer's recommended burner
orifice pressure for size orifice(s) used.
3. Turn the indicator on the gas control to "off".
4. Turn thermostat to "off" or "no heat" position.
5. Disconnect the heater from the electrical supply.
