Test operation and lighting sequence
It may take approximately two hours of operation for the burn media to achieve their full ame
pattern and glow. During the initial burning-in period, some smoke and smell may be experienced.
The appliance should run on a high setting in a well ventilated room until these dissipate. It is
important to check the ame pattern during this time.
Abnormal ame pattern
Abnormal ame performance and/or pattern can indicate a problem with the re, such as blocked
gas injectors, ame rod obstruction, or that the burn media has shifted. Some warning signs that
could indicate a problem:
- Unusual smell from the re
- Continued difculty or delay in establishing a ame
- Flame appears very short or very long
- Flame only burns part way across the burner
- Severe soot building up on the inside of the glass door
Flame pattern should look like this (may vary slightly depending on gas type)
