1.  If you smell gas

• shut off gas supply

• do not try to light any appliance

• do not touch any electrical switch; do not use 

any phone in your building

• immediately call your gas supplier from a 

neighborʼs phone. Follow the gas supplierʼs 

instructions

• if you cannot reach your gas supplier, call 

the fire department

2.  Never install the log set

• in a recreational vehicle

• where curtains, furniture, clothing, or other 

flammable objects are less than 42 inches 

from the front, top, or sides of the log set

• in high traffic areas

• in windy or drafty areas

the chimney flue and firebox must be cleaned of 

soot, creosote, ashes and loose paint by a qualified

logs ever appear to smoke, turn off appliance 

and  call  a  qualified  service  person. 

Note:

 

During initial operation, slight smoking could 

occur due to log curing and the burning of 

manufacturing residues. You may wish to add 

more ventilation by opening a window.

5.  To  reduce  the  creation  of  soot,  follow  the 

instructions in 

Cleaning and Maintenance

page 10.

6.  The installation and provisions for combustion and 

ventilation air must conform with the 

National 

Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z233.1/NFPA 54, Section 

5.3, Air for Combustion and Ventilation

.

7.  Do not run log set

• where flammable liquids or vapors are used 

or stored

• under dusty conditions

8.  Do not burn solid fuel in the fireplace after 

installing the log set. Do not use this log set to 

cook food or burn paper or other objects.

9.  Do not use appliance if any part has been 

exposed to or under water. Immediately call 

a qualified service technician to inspect the 

room appliance and to replace any part of the 

control system (if using GA9200) and any gas 

control which has been under water.
