Drywall dust will penetrate into blower bearings causing ir-
repairable damage and must be prevented from coming into
contact with the blower or its compartment.
Any damage resulting from this condition is not covered by
the warranty policy.
The CONTINENTAL gas fi replace insert comes standard with
a blower, a heat sensor, variable on/off speed control and a
power cord. Because the blower is thermally activated, when
turned on, it will automatically start approximately 15 minutes
after lighting the fi replace and will run for approximately 30
minutes after the fi replace has been turned off. Use of the fan
increases the output of heat. Air, drawn in through the lower
louvre access door, is driven up the back of the fi rebox, and
exhausted as hot air between the upper louvres.
• Turn off the gas and electric power to the unit.
• Remove the upper glass bracket. Loosen the lower glass
bracket and remove the glass.
• Remove the logs.
• Remove the burner assembly.
• Remove the
eight
screws holding the access door in place
on the control assembly (located at the back of the burner
support).
• Remove the four screws holding the blower duct and slide
it forward from beneath the burner support.
• Disconnect the electrical connectors at the blower.
• Remove the blower.

Natural gas models have air shutters set at 1/16 (.063") inch
open. Propane gas models have air shutters set at 3/8 (.375)
inch open. Closing the air shutter will cause a more yellow
fl ame, but can lead to carboning. Opening the air shutter will
cause a more blue fl ame, but can cause fl ame lifting from
the burner ports. The fl ame may not appear yellow immedi-
ately; allow 15 to 30 minutes for the fi nal fl ame colour to be
established.
AIR SHUTTER ADJUSTMENT MUST ONLY BE DONE BY
A QUALIFIED GAS INSTALLER!
