WARNING:
If the burner does not ignite with the burner control valve
open, gas will continue to flow out of the burner and could
accidentally ignite causing injury or property damage.
To Light
1. Unscrew the ignition button on the burner to see if the battery (I) has already been placed inside. If the battery
(I) is not already within the ignition button on the burner, please place the battery (I) into the ignition button
slot.
2. Make sure the ignition control knob is turned to the ‘OFF’ position. Connect the propane gas tank and slowly
open the valve on the propane gas tank by turning the knob counterclockwise.
3. Press in and turn the ignition control knob to the ‘PILOT’ position; hold down for 1 minute.
4. Push the ignition button, while still holding down control knob down, to generate a spark.
5. Check to see if there is a pilot light through the glass tube (G). If there is, turn the control knob to the ‘LOW’
position.
6. For maximum flame height and heat output, turn the control knob to the ‘HIGH’ position.
To Extinguish
1. Push and turn the ignition control knob clockwise to the ‘OFF’ position.
2. Turn the propane gas tank valve on the gas tank to close the gas supply and disconnect the propane gas tank.
When lit for the first time the heater may emit a slight
odor and smoke. This is a normal and temporary con-
dition. The emitter screen will become a bright red due
to the heat. The color is more visible at night. Flame
patterns should be a blue flame; these flames should
not be yellow in color; indicating an obstruction of
airflow through the burners.
