Lighting With A Long Match; Cleaning; Servicing - Valor Legend 936XN Installation And Owner's Manual

20. OPERATING PROCEDURE
The operating instructions are also inside the control panel
door.
20.1
For your safety this appliance is fitted with a flame
supervision device which will shut off the gas supply
if, for any reason, the pilot flames go out. This device
incorporates a fixed probe which senses the heat
from the pilot flame. If the probe is cool, the device
will prevent any gas flow unless the gas control
knob is kept pushed in between the "Off" and "Ign"
positions. See full lighting instructions on next page.
20.2
Open the control panel door at right side of the stove
for access to the controls. Close the door when you
have finished operation the controls.
20.3
The Valor
Comfostat™
Conventional thermostats regulate the temperature
by shutting the burners off when the temperature
reaches its upper limit. This gives stop-go heat,
unnaturally varying flames and impaired efficiency
(like a car in city traffic). The
controls the temperature by gradually lowering or
raising the fire. This maintains room comfort by
providing steadier heat and a more natural looking
regulation of the flames. The room temperature will
be maintained at the desired level for any setting up
to just short of the "Full" position. The "Full" position
is an override which will keep the fire fully on all the
time and is not affected by room temperature.
20.4
When first turned on, the decorative flames will
appear predominantly blue. After approximately 15
minutes the flames will turn yellow.
