BURNER FLAME PATTERN
Burner flames will be steady; not lifting or float-
ing. Flame patterns will be different from unit
to unit and will vary depending on installation
type and weather conditions.
If the vent configuration is installed incorrectly,
the flames will lift or "ghost". This can be dan-
gerous. Inspect the flames after installation to
ensure proper installation and performance.
Figure 51 shows a typical flame pattern. If
burner flame pattern differs from that de-
scribed:
• turn burner system off (see To Turn Off Gas
to Appliance, page 24)
• see Troubleshooting, page 29

WARNING: Turn off burner
system and let cool before
cleaning.
CAUTION: You must keep
control areas, burners, and circu-
lating air passageways of stove
with burner system clean. Inspect
these areas of stove and burner
system before each use. Have
burner system inspected yearly
by a qualified service person.
Burner system may need more
frequent cleaning due to exces-
sive lint from carpeting, bedding
material, pet hair, etc.
GLASS DOOR
WARNING: Handle glass
door panel with care. Do not
strike, slam or otherwise abuse
glass. Do not operate burner
system with the glass door re-
moved, cracked, or broken.
WARNING: Do not use abra-
sive cleaners as this may damage
glass. Use a non-abrasive house-
hold glass cleaner to clean glass.
Do not clean glass when hot.
Glass must be cleaned periodically. During
start-up it is normal for condensation to form
on the inside of the glass causing lint, dust,
and other airborne particles to cling to the
glass surface. During initial start-up a slight
film may form on the glass due to paint curing.
The glass should be cleaned several times
with a non-ammonia, non-abrasive household
cleaner and warm water after the first two
weeks of operation. Thereafter, clean the
glass two or three times during each heating
season, depending on the usage and circum-
stances present. Refer to Removing/Replac-
ing Glass Door on page 21 of this manual
when removing glass door for cleaning.
