Pinnacle & Stardance Direct Vent - Rear Vent Gas Heaters
20007066
Operation
The Stardance is operated with the operable door front
plate in place with the doors open or closed. To open
the front doors, insert the handle into the door latch
stub and turn it to the left and up. (Fig. 45) When not in
use, the handle may be stored in the handle holder on
the right side of the rear shroud. (Fig. 46)
Your First Fire
Read these instructions carefully and familiarize
yourself with the burner controls shown in Figure 47.
Locate the pilot assembly, Figure 48. Follow the
lighting instructions on Page 28 exactly.
During the first fire, it is not unusual to smell some odor
associated with new logs, paint and metal being
heated. Odors should dissipate within a few hours. You
can open a window to provide fresh air to alleviate the
condition.
Pilot and Burner Inspection
Each time you light your heater check that the pilot
flame and burner flame pattern are as shown in Figures
50 through 52. If flame patterns are incorrect, turn the
heater off. Contact your dealer or a qualified gas
technician for assistance. Do not operate the heater
until the pilot flame is correct.
Follow regular maintenance procedures as described
on Page 36.
