INSPECTING BURNERS
IMPORTANT: Owner’s should check pilot flame pattern and burner flame pattern often.
Incorrect flame patterns indicate the need for cleaning (see Care and Maintenance,
page 23 or service.
WARNING: Only a qualified service person should service and
repair stove. This includes maintenance requiring replacement or
alteration of components.
PILOT FLAME PATTERN
Figure 26 - Correct Pilot Flame Pattern
(Natural Gas shown)
Figure 27 - Incorrect Pilot Flame Pattern
(Natural Gas shown)
Figure 26 shows a correct pilot flame pattern.
Figure 27 shows an incorrect pilot flame pat-
tern. The incorrect pilot flame is not touching
the thermocouple. This will cause the ther-
mocouple to cool, which shuts the stove off.
If pilot flame pattern is incorrect, as shown
in Figure 27
• turn stove off (see
To Turn Off Gas to Ap-
pliance
, page 19)
• see
Troubleshooting
pages 26 through 29.
WARNING: If yellow tipping
occurs, the pilot should be
cleaned.
Notice: Do not mistake orange flames with
yellow tipping. Dirt or other fine particles enter
the stove and burn causing brief patches of
orange flame.

BURNER PRIMARY AIR HOLES
Air is drawn into the burner through the holes in the fitting at the entrance to the burner. These
holes may become blocked with dust or lint. Periodically inspect these holes for any blockage
and clean as necessary. Blocked air holes will create soot.
