the flame sensing device from
shutting off the gas while its probe
warms up as explained previously.
If the pilot does not ignite quickly
repeat the procedure.
If after 10 seconds pilot ignition has
not occurred, turn the control knob
back to the “Off” position, wait for
3 minutes and then repeat the
ignition procedure.
When the pilot is alight and
stable, partially depress the knob and
turn to “LOW”. The pilot should then
light the main burner at its low
setting. There may be a delay of up to
four seconds between the pilot lighting and ignition of the gas at the main burner. This
is normal and is due to the time required to fill the main burner compartment with
sufficient gas for ignition.
When the main burner is alight at its low setting, partially depress the knob and
gradually turn it anti-clockwise until the burner is at your desired level. The burner
flames will gradually increase until the knob reaches the “HIGH” position.
Note:
i) If the flames go out while setting the control, repeat the full lighting
procedure. If the flames repeatedly go out have the fire serviced.
ii) Please note. When first turned on the flames will appear predominantly
blue. The pebbles will take time to warm up. Although some glow will be seen
after approximately ten minutes, the full visual effect will only be apparent
after a somewhat longer time.
iii) The appliance will operate to its maximum potential if the flue is primed
during the first 20 – 30 minutes of operation. To do this, simply set the control
knob to its ‘HIGH’ setting. This will also burn off any carbon deposits that
may have formed during previous operations.
iv) If operating the appliance for long periods it is beneficial occasionally to
change the settings. This will also help to remove any carbon deposits that
may form during operation
Lighting with a taper
See figure 4.
In the unlikely event of failure of the ignition spark, the pilot can be lit by a taper or
