I had a hard time figuring out which way the knob turned at first. On ours the marker must be at the bottom (not seen) and when it says "Pilot" right side up at the bottom that is "pilot." Turn clockwise to "Off" and counter- clockwise to "On" (which lights the main burner)
The temp control knob on ours doesn't seem to make any difference. The furnace front gets really hot. A little kid would have to learn that the hard way! You can get some heat by just leaving the pilot lit and no main burner.
EDIT-found my old thread--see post 1/28/15 at 4:16 on cleaning the pilot orifice.
