I. DETERMINING THE IGNITION
To determine whether your appliance is an electronic
ignition or a standing pilot ignition system, open the control
access panel to examine the wiring system. If your system
has a red ignitor button, as shown in Figure 39, you own a
standing pilot ignition appliance. If no red ignitor button is
present, you own an electronic ignition appliance.
You may also check the rating label located on the inside
of the control access panel to determine ignition type.
