Initial Lighting Instructions
Use a gas sniffer device or smell all around the
appliance area for gas. Ensure you check at the
floor also because unlike natural gas, propane is
heavier than air. If you do not detect or smell gas,
proceed with the lighting procedure. If you do detect
or smell gas, DO NOT proceed with the lighting
procedure.
Pilot Light Warning
Do not attempt to light the unit with a match or by
any means other than the ignition system supplied
with the unit.
To Light the Stove for Initial Leak Test:
Remote Control Ignition:
The Remote and Receiver must be synchronized
before initial use (for instructions, see page 30).
After synchronizing the remote perform the following
steps to light the stove:
1. On the remote handset, simultaneously
press the Large Flame and OFF buttons.
2. The stove receiver will begin to emit audible
beeps and the ignition sequence will begin.
3. After several seconds, the piezo igniter will
begin to spark and the pilot light will ignite.
4. After several more seconds, the main burner
will ignite.
5. Select the desire flame height by pressing
either the large flame or small flame icon on
the remote. For additional operational
information, see the MAXITROL GV60
CONTROL SYSTEM FEATRUES section.
6. With the main burner in operation, apply an
approved leak test solution to all tubing and
pipe connections (including adapters) and
the valve inlet and outlet. Bubbles indicate a
leak.
7. If a leak is detected, tighten pipe connections
(including adapters) according to "GAS
CONNECTIONS" (page 17).
Manual Ignition (Optional):
1.
Remove orange ignition wire from Control
module and insert onto Piezo Ignitor
Connection on valve top
(see Figures 13
and 16).
2. Open the gas supply to the valve.
3. Remove the access panel from the front of
the stove and set on a non-marring surface.
4.
Locate and turn the MANUAL Knob on the
valve clockwise to the “MAN” position
(see
Figure 16).
5. Turn the Main Valve knob to “OFF”.
6. Using a pen or other device that will reach
through the MANUAL Knob cut out, gently
press the pilot button and hold it in the down
position.
7. After a ten second wait, push the piezo
igniter button on the valve every three
seconds until you see the pilot light.
8. Once the pilot lights, continue holding the
Pilot Button for one (1) minute. Release the
Pilot Button and the pilot flame should
remain on.
9. Once the pilot flame has been established,
turn the Main valve knob counter-clockwise.
The main burner will ignite after the Main
Valve knob is turned past the minimum
setting. Once the main burner is on,
continue turning the Main Valve knob until
the desired flame height is reached.
10. With the main burner in operation, apply an
approved leak test solution to all tubing and
pipe connections (including adapters) and
the valve inlet and outlet. Bubbles indicate a
leak.
11. If a leak is detected, tighten pipe
connections (including adapters) according
to "GAS CONNECTIONS" (page 17).
Smoke and Fumes Warning
When lit for the first time, the Waitsfield will emit
some smoke and fumes. This is normal “off
-
gassing” of the paints and oils used in the
manufacturing and assembly of the unit. Open
windows to vent the room if necessary. The off
gassing and fumes will subside after the first 8 hours
of operation.
Odors and Impurities
A heater of this type may produce odors during
heater operation at any time due to impurities that
may exist in the immediate area around the unit.
Sources of impurities can include cleaning solvents,
paint solvents, cigarettes, candles, smoke, pet hair,
dust, adhesives, new carpet, and/or textiles. Such
odors will eventually dissipate. However, opening a
window or otherwise providing additional ventilation
to the area can alleviate the condition sooner. If any
odor persists, find and remove the cause, or contact
your dealer or an authorized service technician.
