WARNING: If yellow tipping

occurs, your heater could produce
increased levels of carbon
monoxide. If burner flame pattern
shows yellow tipping, follow instruc-
tions at bottom of this page.

Notice: Do not mistake orange
flames with yellow tipping. Dirt or
other fine particles enter the heater

PILOT FLAME PATTERN
Figure 20 shows a correct pilot
flame pattern. Figure 21 shows an
incorrect pilot flame pattern. The
incorrect pilot flame is not touching
thermocouple. This will cause the
thermocouple to cool. When the
thermocouple cools, the heater will
shut down. If pilot flame pattern is
incorrect, as shown in Figure 21.

turn heater off (see To Turn Off

Gas to Appliance on page 11
for non-thermostat models or

page 12 for thermostat models.)

see Troubleshooting. pages 14

through 16.

WARNING: Turn off heater

and let cool before servicing.

CAUTION: You must keep con-

trol areas, burner, and circulating
air passageways of heater clean.
Inspect these areas of heater
before each use. Have heater
inspected yearly by a qualified
service person. Heater may need
more frequent cleaning due to
excessive lint from carpeting,
bedding material, pet hair, etc.

CLEANING AND

MAINTENANCE

INSPECTING BURNER

Check pilot flame pattern and
burner flame pattern often.

We recommend that you clean the
unit every 2,500 hours of operation or
every three months. We also
recommend that you keep the burner
tube and pilot assembly clean and free
of dust and dirt. To clean these parts
we recommend using compressed
air no greater than 30 PSl. Your local
computer store, hardware store, or
home center may carry compressed
air in a can. You can use a vacuum
cleaner in the blow position. If using
compressed air in a can, please follow
the directions on the can. If you don’t
follow directions on the can, you could
damage the pilot assembly.
1. Shut off the unit, including the

pilot. Allow the unit to cool for

at least thirty minutes.
2. Inspect burner and pilot for dust
and dirt.
3. Blow air through the ports/slots
and holes in the burner.
Also clean the pilot assembly. A
yellow tip on the pilot flame indi-
cates dust and dirt in the pilot
assembly. There is a small pilot air
inlet hole about two inches from
where the pilot flame comes out of
the pilot assembly (see Figure 24).
With the unit off , lightly blow air through
the air inlet hole. You may blow through
a drinking straw if compressed air is
not available.
