Do not try to adjust heating levels by using the manual shutoff valve.

VARIABLE CONTROL OPERATION

The variable control valve can be set to any heat setting and flame height desired, by
simply turning the control knob until that setting is attained. Even the lowest setting
provides realistic, dancing yellow flames. Selecting higher settings produces greater
heat output. This results in increased heating comfort.

4. Wait five (5) minutes to clear out any gas. Then smell for gas, including near the

floor. If you smell gas, STOP! Follow “B” in the safety information on page 21. If

you don’t smell gas, go to the next step.

5. Slightly depress and turn control knob counterclockwise

C-clockwise

to the PILOT

position. Keep control knob pressed in for five (5) seconds (see Figure 21, page 22).

Note:

You may be running this heater for the first time after hooking up to gas

supply. If so, the control knob may need to be pressed in for 30 seconds. This

will allow air to bleed from the gas system.

6. With control knob pressed in, press and release ignitor button. This will light

pilot. The pilot is attached to the burner. If needed, keep pressing ignitor button

until pilot lights.

Note:

If pilot does not light, contact a qualified service person or gas supplier

for repairs. Until repairs are made, light pilot with match. To light pilot with

match, see Manual Lighting Procedure on page 24.

7. Keep control knob pressed in for 30 seconds after lighting pilot. After 30 seconds,

release control knob.

Note:

If pilot goes out, repeat steps 3 through 7.

• If control knob does not pop out when released, contact a qualified service

person or gas supplier for repairs.
