2. Start the pilot and then the burner. Allow
the appliance to operate for 15 minutes
before making any air adjustments.
3. The ideal fl ame will be blue at the base and
light orange above. If the fl ames are short
and mostly blue, the fi replace is getting too
much air. Therefore, the air shutter should
be closed slightly until the correct fl ames
are achieved. Slide the air shutter to the
right to reduce the amount of air.
4. Flames that are very orange, with tall,
dark, stringy tips, are not getting enough
air. Therefore, the air shutter should be
opened slightly until the correct fl ames are
achieved. Slide the air shutter to the left to
increase the amount of air.
5. Tighten air shutter lock screw.
