FAULT FINDING 

 
The following table lists typical symptoms and supply the actions to be taken. Should these actions not resolve the 
problem then a Jetmaster service technician must be consulted. 
 

SYMPTOM 

ACTION TO BE TAKEN 

Gas smell 

 

Immediately close the gas supply to the unit. 

 

Contact a service technician 

Unit does not ignite after several 
spark attempts 

 

Check that gas supply is open. 

 

Ensure that gas supply line has been purged from air in line. 

 

If problem persist, contact service technician. 

No spark is generated when unit is 
switched ON. 

 

Ensure that the igniter cable is connected tightly to the pilot burner 

 

Ensure that the igniter cable does not make contact with metal 
surfaces. This could lead to a spark at a wrong point. 

Flame does not travel to either end 
of the burner tray. 

 

Check that the DYNAMIC gas supply pressure is correct, while the 
burner is operating. 

 

Check that the granular vermiculite is not compressed in lumps that 
do not allow flame travel. Loosen vermiculite and replace. 

Flame is weak or; 
Very high flame 

 

Check that the DYNAMIC gas supply pressure is correct, while the 
burner is operating. 

Pilot switching off during operation 
(The main burner will also be 
extinguished)  

 

Immediately close main gas supply and turn control knob to the off 
position. 

 

Immediately open doors and windows to allow fresh air into the 
room. 

 

Before re-igniting verify that all permanent ventilation openings in the 
room is open and free from obstruction. 

 

If problem persist, do not use, and contact a service technician. 

The unit burns back. 
(The flame burns at the bottom of 
the tray. The flame will typically 
make an audible noise) 

 

Immediately close main gas supply and turn control knob to the off 
position. 

 

Allow 5min for gas to dissipate and ignite again. 

 

If problem persist, remove all vermiculite, glass & pebbles, and re 
pack as described in this manual. 

 

If problem persist, contact service technician.
