TROUBLESHOOTING
The entire gas delivery piping including connec-
tions inside the heater should be leak tested by
the qualied installer. After leak testing the quali-
ed installer should light the appliance. Refer to
the correct ame pattern as illustrated on page
22. All ame patterns should be safely inside the
product. If for any reason they are not, stop use
of the appliance and call for repairs.
