The ON/OFF power switch is set to
ON (I), but the power ON LED is not
illuminated.
• Verify that the power cord is plugged into the
receptacle.
• Verify that the power is ON at the main power
panel or at the line-disconnect switch box.
* Verify that the line voltage is not too low (more
than 15% below the rated voltage).
The power ON LED is illuminated and
the gas pressure LED is illuminated
yellow and is above or below the center
of the pressure bar.
• Turn the amperage knob to the gas test position,
then unlock the pressure regulator by pulling up on
the knob. Turn it to adjust the pressure, then push
it down to lock it.
• Verify that the gas supply line is connected to the
power supply and the gas is turned on.
• Inspect the gas supply line for leaks and verify the
incoming gas pressure.
The power ON LED is blinking. • The input line voltage is either too high or too
low (a variance greater than ±15% of the rated
voltage). Have an electrical technician check the
incoming power. See Section 1, Specifications,
and Prepare the electrical power in Section 2 for
more information.
