OPERATING
Once a pilot light has been established, the unit may be operated
one of two ways:
Manual:
1) Turn burner control dial to desired setting. (Set to Hi, Med, or
Low only - do not operate in between settings. See Fig. # 2) To
turn unit off, turn burner control dial to “OFF” position.
Remote:
Optional wall switch is required. (Fig. # 3)
1) Turn burner control dial to desired setting. (Set to Hi, Med, or
Low only - do not operate in between settings. See Fig. # 2.) The
unit may be turned on or off via wall switch.
Extend Shutdown:
1) Partially depress and turn gas control dial clockwise past
“PILOT” to “OFF” position.
To re-light unit, see “lighting instructions” section.
Note: When lit for the first time, the appliance will emit a slight odour
for a couple of hours. This is due to the curing of paints, sealants
and lubricants in the manufacturing process. This condition is
temporary. Open doors and windows to ventilate area.
GAS FLAME ADJUSTMENT
The air shutter on the burner venturi tube controls the primary
combustion air to the gas burner. Although it is preset at the factory,
some adjustment may be necessary to obtain desired flame and to
eliminate carbon deposits. (See Fig. # 4 for proper flame pattern)
Natural gas: 3/16” open
Propane gas: 5/16” open
To Adjust: (See Fig. # 5)
1) Remove bottom front louver and shield.
2) Loosen set screw and turn air shutter until proper flame is
achieved.
3) Tighten set screw.
Caution: Proper air shutter setting is a must. The flame should be
just orange and “lazy”. It should NEVER be set to create sooting on
internal parts and glass. Open air shutter gradually until sooting
stops.
