Burner Flame Check

Steel Burner:

These models are equipped with self-adjusting air mixture and

do not have an adjustable air shutter (See Figure 8). At periodic intervals a
visual check of the main burner and pilot flames should be made to determine if
they are burning properly. The main burner flame should light smoothly from the
pilot.

Figure 8

WARNING

Do not run out of propane gas. Damage to the water heater may occur.
