Operation

Pilot and Burner Inspection
Each time you light your heater check that the pilot flame
and burner flame patterns are as shown in Figure 57. If
flame patterns are incorrect, turn the heater off. Contact
your dealer or a qualified gas technician for assistance.
Do not operate the heater until the pilot flame is correct.
Follow regular maintenance procedures as described on
Page 41.
Flame & Temperature Adjustment
For stoves equipped with HI/LO valves, flame adjustment
is accomplished by rotating the HI/LO adjustment knob lo-
cated near the center of the gas control valve. (Figure 56)
