Questions and answers
Flavel Curve After resetting it won't light even after repeating to relight
The Flavel Curve may not light after resetting because the instructions state that after the pilot flame has been extinguished, you must wait at least three minutes before trying to relight the fire. Attempting to relight it too soon can prevent successful ignition.
