PILOT FLAME PATTERN

Figure 31 shows a correct pilot flame pattern.
Figure 32 shows an incorrect pilot flame
pattern. The incorrect pilot flame is not prop-
erly heating the thermocouple. This will cause
the thermocouple to cool. When the thermo-
couple cools, the fireplace will shut down.

If pilot flame pattern is incorrect, as shown
in Figure 32

• turn fireplace off (see To Turn Off Gas to

Appliance, page 18)

• see Troubleshooting, pages 20 through 22
