INSPECTING
BURNER
Check pilot flame pattern and burner flame
pattern often.
PILOT FLAME PATTERN
Figure 18 shows a correct pilot flame pat-
tern. Figure 19 shows an incorrect pilot
flame pattern. The incorrect pilot flame is
not touching the thermocouple. This will
cause the thermocouple to cool. When the
thermocouple cools, the appliance will shut
down.
If pilot flame pattern is incorrect, as shown
in Figure 19
turn appliance off (see To Turn Off Gas
to Appliance, page 10)
see Troubleshooting, pages 12 through 14

Figure 20 shows a correct burner flame
pattern. Figure 21 shows an incorrect burner
flame pattern. The incorrect burner flame
pattern shows yellow tipping of the flame. It

If burner flame pattern is incorrect, as shown
in Figure 21
turn appliance off (see To Turn Off Gas
to Appliance, page 10).
