.  Make sure the manual shutoff valve is fully open.
3.  This heater is equipped with an ignition device (piezo) which automatically 

lights the pilot.

4. 

Refer to Page 27 

for the location of the piezo ignitor and control knob. Push 

in gas control knob slightly and turn control knob clockwise 

 to the OFF 

position. 

 

NOTE:

 

Knob cannot be turned to OFF unless knob is pushed in slightly. Do 

not force.

5.  Wait 5 minutes to clear out any gas. Then smell for gas, including near the 

floor. If you smell gas 

STOP!

 Follow the instructions under “What to Do if You 

Smell Gas”, 

Page 27

. If you do not smell gas, go to the next step.

6.  From OFF position, push in gas control knob slightly and turn counterclock-

 to the IGN position. 

Figure 39. 

Push in and hold control knob for 5 

seconds.

 

NOTE:

 

If you are running the heater for the first time, it will be necessary to 

press in the control knob for 30 seconds to allow air to bleed out of the gas 
piping.

7.  With the control knob pushed in, push and release the piezo ignitor button to 

light the ODS pilot. The pilot is located on the left side of the heater, behind 
the middle log and in front of the back log. If piezo ignitor does not light the 
pilot, refer to

 

“Match Lighting Instructions”, 

Page 30.

8.  Hold the control knob in for an additional 10 seconds to prevent the ODS pilot 

from shutting off the gas while the thermocouple is warming up.

9.  Release the control knob.
 

  If the knob does not pop out when released, stop and immediately call your 

service technician or gas supplier.

 

  If the ODS pilot will not stay lit after several tries, push and turn the gas 

control knob clockwise 

 to OFF and wait 15 seconds. Repeat steps 6 

through 9.

 to the HIGH setting. At 

this location the control knob will pop out when positioned correctly. The knob 
can now be positioned at any position between HIGH and LOW.
