Note:
The look of the flames and embers may differ
based on the type of fuel and venting assembly that
is required.

1. Cleaning the Burner and Control Com-
partment
Keep the burner and control compartment clean by
brushing and vacuuming at least once a year. Always
turn off the wall switch (or remote control) and manual
shutoff valve before cleaning.
2. Checking the Flame Patterns
Inspect the flame of the burner periodically, making
sure the flames are steady, not lifting or floating. See
Figure 26. The flame color should be blue with yellow
tips. The sensor (intermittent pilot) or thermopile and
thermocouple (standing pilot) tips should be covered
with flame. See Figures 24-25.
If the vent configuration is correct yet the flames are
lifting or ghosting, shut off gas to the appliance and
contact the dealer.
To reduce the possibility of soot, we have equipped
your appliance with an adjustable air shutter (there are
two burners and two air shutters on the propane
version). See Figure 27. Your air shutter is provided in
the closed position for natural gas and in the open
position for propane.
Note:
If the air shutter is open all the way and the
flames remain sooty, shut off the gas to the appliance
and contact a qualified gas service technician.
If the vent configuration is installed incorrectly, the vent
may cause the flames inside the appliance to lift or
ghost, a dangerous situation. Inspect the flames after
installation to ensure proper performance. See
Figure 26.
Note:
After extended periods of burning, film may
build up on the flame sensor (intermittent pilot
ignition). The flame sensor should be cleaned
annually with emery cloth to remove this build up.
