      Hold over knob, pilot assembly, for up to 30 seconds.
      Check gas supply.
      Confirm that thermocouple is fully inserted into thermocouple holder.
      Pilot flame out of position. Pilot flame is not engulfing thermocouple. Pilot assembly needs to be adjusted so that pilot flame is engulfing thermocouple.
      Test thermocouple.
      Thermostat knob is bottoming out on manifold cover (face plate). If knob can not fully engage, the magnet in the thermostat will not be established. Move manifold out further beyond face plate.
    THERMOSTAT CALIBRATION
      The ideal temperature variance is 25 degrees (plus or minus). This means that if the thermostat is set at 350 degrees, the temperature will range between 325 and 375. If the temperture exceeds 50 degrees, plus or minus, check for a kinked capillary tube.
