Lighting & Operation
COOKING BURNER OPERATION
The cooking burner on your FireLuxe functions like a cooking burner on any conventional kitchen range.
A battery-powered flame-sensing automatic ignition system lights the burner when you depress the control
knob and rotate counterclockwise to the High (H) position. You will hear a clicking sound and can observe
the spark arcing from the igniter electrode to the burner body. Once the burner is lit, the flame sensor will
shut off the spark. If, for any reason, the sensor does not detect a flame, the igniter will automatically resume
sparking until the flame is detected again. (will occur when open burning, with no cook pot or pan.)
The flames should be blue and evenly distributed around the perimeter of the burner. See the illustration
below.
Adjust the flame for the desired heat level by rotating the knob. To turn the burner off, rotate the knob
clockwise to the OFF position. (See fig. 4 on page 24.)
Refer to the lighting instructions on page 24 and the lighting and operating instructions on the permanent
metal label attached by cable to the rear of the stove.
WARNING: THE COOKING BURNER IS FOR ATTENDED USE ONLY. DO NOT LEAVE “ON”
UNATTENDED FOR ANY REASON.
WARNING: CHILDREN AND ADULTS SHOULD BE ALERTED TO THE HAZARDS OF HIGH SURFACE
TEMPERATURES AND SHOULD STAY AWAY TO AVOID BURNS OR CLOTHING IGNITION. YOUNG
CHILDREN SHOULD BE CAREFULLY SUPERVISED WHEN THEY ARE IN THE SAME ROOM AS
THE APPLIANCE. CLOTHING OR OTHER FLAMMABLE MATERIAL SHOULD NOT BE PLACED ON
OR NEAR THE APPLIANCE.
WARNING: BASED ON SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS, THE COOKING BURNER FLAME SHOULD BE
ADJUSTED SO IT DOES NOT EXTEND BEYOND THE EDGE OF THE COOKING UTENSIL.
WARNING: BASED ON SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS, DO NOT USE THE COOKING BURNER FOR
SPACE HEATING UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES.
PILOT AND MAIN BURNER OPERATION
Follow the lighting instructions on pages 23 – 24. When the pilot is lit and operating properly, it should
look like the illustration above. One flame will be directed at the pilot thermocouple and the other will be
emanating toward the burner. If the pilot flames do not resemble the illustration above, see the instructions
on page 26 for pilot flame adjustment.
After the main burner ignites and has been in operation for a few minutes, the flames should look like the
illustration on the top of page 26. Flame height will vary depending on the firing rate but flames should be
burning in all of the indicated areas.
