MAINTENANCE

VISUAL MAINTENANCE

In order to keep your fire feature function-
ing properly and efficiently, a visual check 

of  its  components  is  necessary.  The  vital 

components to prove are the pilot burner 

and main burner while they are lit.

Before looking at these components, re-
move all lava stones and any debris from 

the bowl.

Also remove the pilot guard and put aside.

Once you have removed all debris, light the 

appliance  according  to  the  “ignition”  sec

-

tion in this manual. (see pg. 24-25 )

While the main burner is on, turn the flame 

height valve to the OFF or CLOSED position. 

This will leave the pilot burner on and the 

main burner off.

Visually check that the pilot has a robust 
flame and is making contact with the ther-

mocouple above it. (See illustration at left 
for a normal flame pattern.)

After visually inspecting the pilot flame and 
establishing it is in normal working condi-

tion, the next thing to check is the main 

burner.

To turn the main burner on for a visual 

check, while the appliance is in operation, 
turn the flame hight valve to the LOW po-

sition.  Carefully  check  that  the  burner  has 

a even, steady flame coming out of all the 

drilled ports along the burner. 

Now that the appliance has been visually 

checked, turn the appliance OFF, follow-

ing the “to put burner out” section in this 
manual. (see pg.25)

If either the pilot burner or the main burner 

appears to burn unevenly or abnormally, 

please contact the manufacturer or a quali-

fied service person for repair. If the burner 

is found faulty or evidence of corrosion and 
needs repair, the replacement burner must 

come  from  the  original  manufacturer.  Do 

not operate the fire feature until the re-
placement burner has been installed by a 

qualified service person.
