LIGHTING

Purge the gas line of air before attempting to light the
pilot in the unit. Wait 5 minutes for unburned gas to
vent. Check for gas leaks.

Never use an open flame to

detect gas leaks. Explosive conditions may
exist which could result in personal injury or
death.

The unit is furnished with an intermittent pilot ignition
system. A lighting instruction plate is permanently
attached to the unit for the pilot system supplied with
the unit. To set the intermittent pilot ignition system
in operation, proceed as follows:
1. Turn on the main manual valve and pilot valve.
2. Turn on electrical power. The unit should now be

under the control of the thermostat.

3. Turn the thermostat to the high heat reading to see

if the pilot and main burner ignite.

4. Tur n the ther mostat to the lowest setting to

interrupt power to the ignition system to determine
that both the pilot burner and main burner are
extinguished.

5. Set the thermostat at the desired setting for normal

operation.

For complete shutdown:
1. Tur n the main and pilot valves to the OFF

position.

2. Shut off electric power.
3. Adjust the thermostat to the lowest setting.

Figure 12 - Main Burner Flames

NOTICE: There may be momentary and spasmodic
orange flashes in the flame. This is caused by the
burning of airborne dust particles, and not to be
confused with the yellow tipping, which is a stable
or permanent situation when there is insufficient
primary air.
