These settings are for rear vented (maximum) horizontal
termination. Adjustment may be required depending on fuel
type, vent confi guration and altitude.
Closing the air shutter will cause a more yellow fl ame, but can
lead to carboning. Opening the air shutter will cause a more
blue fl ame, but can cause fl ame lifting from the burner ports.
The fl ame may not appear yellow immediately; allow 15 to 30
minutes for the fi nal fl ame colour to be established.
Air shutter adjustment must only be done by a
qualifi ed installer!
To access the air shutter, remove the two screws that secure
the cover to the air housing, taking care not to damage the
gasket.
