      If your Dyna-Glo Heater shuts off after running a few minutes, here are some possible causes and solutions: * Ensure the gas supply is turned on and the equipment shutoff valve is open. * Make sure the control knob is fully pressed in while pressing the Ignitor. * If there's air in the gas lines from installation, keep holding down the control knob and repeat the igniting operation until the air is removed. * The ODS/pilot might be clogged; clean it or replace the ODS/pilot assembly. * Verify the control knob is in the PILOT position. * If using propane, the gas supply may be depleted; contact your local propane/LP gas company.
