Warning - DO NOT use a pin or wire when
cleaning the burner orifice as damage can
occur to the precision opening. This can
cause damage to the refrigerator or create
a fire hazard. It will also create extremely
dangerous levels of carbon monoxide.
o
Be sure to reconnect the wire to the electrode. Check the electrode for
proper location and gap. See figure #8
o The inlet & outlet gas fittings on the refrigerator need to be checked
for leaks. Apply a non corrosive bubble solution to the fittings and
observe for leaks. The safety valve will not allow gas pressure to any
connections between it and the burner orifice. These fittings must be
checked while burner is in operation (gas flow will be present between
saftey valve and burner head)
WARNING – The safety valve (“E” button Fig#5) must
be manually depressed to allow gas pressure to flow to the
burner orifice. Be sure to apply the leak check solution
before depressing the safety shut–off. DO NOT allow any
open flame, sparks, smoking, etc. in the area of the test.
DO NOT depress safety shut-off for over 30 seconds.
o If leak occurs, then allow ten minutes to dissipate from the burner
area. Fix leak then light the burner accourding to the instructions
