OPERATION

FOR YOUR SAFETY

READ BEFORE LIGHTING

 WARNING: Keep flue open when operating unit.

 WARNING: If you do not follow these instructions 

exactly, a fire or explosion may result causing property 

damage, personal injury or loss of life.

BEFORE LIGHTING smell all around the appliance area for gas. Be 

sure to smell next to the floor because some gas is heavier than 

air and will settle on the floor.
WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS

•  Do not try to light any appliance.
•  Do not touch any electric switch; do not use any phone in your 

building.

•  Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbor’s phone. 

Follow the gas supplier’s instructions.

•  If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire department.

wise 

 to open or clockwise 

 to close, as necessary.

Shutting Off Appliance

Turn gas shutoff valve clockwise 

 to OFF position.

CURING LOGS

During the 2-3 hour appliance break-in period, you may detect an 

odor from the appliance as various paints and compounds used in 

manufacturing of this log set cure. This is a normal and temporary 

situation that is not cause for alarm. However, you may want to provide 

extra ventilation to the room during this time.
To ensure proper curing of the logs:

•  Ignite a 2" flame and maintain it for 1 hour.
•  Burn logs in consecutive 1 hour periods raising the flame an ad

-

ditional 2" to full flame height for a total of three hours.
