Key Pad Lock Feature This feature allows the user to lock/unlock the keypad on the hand-held remote in the MANU or AUTO mode to prevent inadvertent operation (i.e. children operating the hand-held remote control, etc.). The keypad is locked in either on or off. Press the POWER and LOCK buttons together to turn the unit on or off. INSPECTING BURNERS Check pilot flame pattern and burner flame patterns often. PILOT FLAME PATTERN Figure 37 shows a correct pilot flame pattern. Figure 38, shows an incorrect pilot flame pattern. The incorrect pilot flame is not properly heating the thermocouple. When the thermocouple cools, the heater will shut down. If pilot flame pattern is incorrect, as shown in Figure 38 • turn heater off (see To Turn Off Gas to Appliance, page 20) • see Troubleshooting, page 24 Note: The pilot flame on natural gas units will have a slight curve, but the flame should be blue and have no yellow or orange color.

CAUTION:Youmustkeepcontrolareas, burnersandcirculating air passageways of heater clean. Inspect these areas of heater before each use. Have heater inspected yearly by a qualified service person. Heater may need more frequent cleaning due to excessive lint from carpeting, pet hair, bedding material, etc. WARNING: Failure to keep the primary air opening(s) of the burner(s) clean may result in sooting and property damage. BURNER INJECTOR HOLDER AND PILOT AIR INLET HOLE The primary air inlet holes allow the proper amount of air to mix with the gas. This provides a clean burning flame. Keep these holes clear of dust, dirt, lint and pet hair. Clean these air inlet holes prior to each heating season. Blocked air holes will create soot. We recommend that you clean the unit every three months during operation and have heater inspected yearly by a qualified service person. We also recommend that you keep the burner tube and pilot assembly clean and free of dust and dirt. To clean these parts we recommend using compressed air no greater than 30 PSI. Your local computer store, hardware store or home center may carry compressed air in a can. You can use a vacuum cleaner in the blow position. If using compressed air in a can, please follow the directions on the can. If you don.t follow directions on the can, you could damage the pilot assembly. 1. Shut off the unit, including the pilot. Allow the unit to cool for at least thirty minutes. 2. Inspect burner, pilot and primary air inlet holes on injector holder for dust and dirt (see Figure 39). 3. Blow air through the ports/slots and holes in the burner. 4. Check the injector holder located at the end of the burner tube again. Remove any large particles of dust, dirt, lint or pet hair with a soft cloth or vacuum cleaner nozzle. 5. Blow air into the primary air holes on the injector holder. 6. In case any large clumps of dust have now been pushed into the burner repeat steps 3 and 4. Clean the pilot assembly also. A yellow tip on the pilot flame indicates dust and dirt in the pilot assembly. There is a small pilot air inlet hole about two inches from where the pilot flame comes out of the pilot assembly (see Figure 40). With the unit off, lightly blow air through the air inlet hole. You may blow through a drinking straw if compressed air is not available.

MAIN BURNER Periodically inspect all burner flame holes with theheater running. All slotted burner flame holes shouldbe open with yellow flame present. All round burnerflame holes should be open with a small blue flamepresent. Some burner flame holes may becomeblocked by debris or rust, with no flame present. Ifso, turn off heater and let cool. Remove blockage. Blocked burner flame holes will create soot. 111161-01E TROUBLESHOOTING WARNING: Turn off heater and let cool before servicing. Only a qualified service person should service and repair heater. CAUTION: Never use a wire, needle or similar object to clean ODS/pilot. This can damage ODS/pilot unit. Note: All troubleshooting items are listed in order of operation. OBSERVED PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE REMEDY When ignitor button is pressed, 1. Ignitor electrode not con1. Reconnect ignitor cable there is no spark at ODS/pilot nected to ignitor cable 2. Ignitor cable pinched or wet 2. Free ignitor cable if pinched by any metal or tubing. Keep ignitor cable dry 3.
