If you turn the heater off and then have to re-light
1) Turn control knob to the “OFF” position.
2) Wait at least FIVE minutes before attempting to relight heater. The safety system built into the heater will
not allow you to immediately re-light the heater directly from the “OFF” position. Please do not try to
defeat this safety system.

light and then ignite the main burner.

heaters, gas grills, gaslights and torches, pool heaters, and other outdoor gas burning products. The webs
and obstructions created by these insects can causes conditions that may damage the appliance or render it
unsafe for proper use. You should inspect the burner at least once a year or immediately if any of the
following conditions are present when operating the heater:
1.
The odor of gas in conjunction with extreme yellow tipping of the burner flame.
2. The emitter grid does not glow evenly or reach proper operating temperatures.
3. The burner makes a popping or roaring noise.

name and number of a qualified service technician.
