TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDELINES

These guidelines should be utilized by a qualified service
agent.

LOCKOUTS

Soft Lockout

Occurs when a system safety device trips to break the
sequence of operation. The control will try to start the
system in a timed basis but will not reinstate operation
until the failure is corrected.

Hard Lockout

Occurs when the main controller fails and must be
replaced.

RESETTING THE HEATER CONTROL

Soft lockouts as diagnosed by the system error codes
require the gas control to be reset.
To reset the control, slide the "ON/OFF" switch to the
"OFF" position. Wait for 10 seconds and move the
switch back to the "ON" position.
If the problem that caused the control to lock out has
not been corrected, the control will remain or again go
back into lockout.
