ABSTRACT:
A safety circuit31, which compulsorily closes an on-off valve for supplying a gas to a burner when a microcomputer for performing a combustion control is in an abnormal condition, does not operate unless abnormality occurs to the microcomputer1, and therefore even when the safety circuit31is out of order, an ignition operation is performed as it is. A transistor4is not turned off until a fixed time elapses from a start of an ignition sequence in the safety circuit31, but the fixed time is shortened by a timer acceleration circuit32, and if the transistor4is turned off by a transistor2being turned on, the safety circuit31is determined as normal, so that the normal ignition sequence is executed thereafter.
