ELATION Fireplace Insert 

 

OPERATION 

 

BEFORE LIGHTING 

 
1)  Do not use this appliance if any part has been under water.  Immediately call a qualified 

service technician  to inspect the appliance and to replace any part of the control system and 
any gas control which has been  under water. 

2)  Make sure that there are no obstructions in the air intake or venting system. 
3)  Clear the immediate area of combustible materials, gasoline, and other flammable liquids 

and vapours. 

4)  Make sure that the gas log is in its proper place. 

 

 

THE FIRST FIRE:

 

 
During the first few hours of operation the appliance will release an odor.  This is caused by the 
burning off of residual oils used in the manufacturing process and by the curing of the high heat 
paint.  The ceramic glass window may require cleaning after this initial "burn in."  Please read 
the instructions on cleaning in the MAINTENANCE section before doing so. 
 
The optional gold plated items must be 

absolutely clean

 before you light each fire.  The acid 

from your fingerprints may permanently etch the gold plating. 
 
If the protective packaging that accompanied the gas log is still in place, follow the instructions 
in the LOG PLACEMENT section. 
 

LIGHTING PROCEDURE 

 

WARNING:  

If you do not follow these lighting instructions exactly, a fire or explosion may 

result causing property damage, personal injury, or loss of life

 

Open the pedestal cover front panel to reach the control. 
 
Make sure the gas control knob is turned to the "off" position. If it is not, press knob slightly 
and turn clockwise   to the "off" position.  

Do not force the gas control knob

. If the gas control 

was in the on position you should wait 5 minutes before trying to re-light the stove. 
 
• 

If you smell gas STOP and follow instructions on the COVER page. 

• 

Push in and turn gas control knob counterclockwise to the "pilot" position. 

•  Press gas control knob in and hold.  Immediately push the red igniter button repeatedly until 

pilot flame ignites.  Continue holding in the control knob for 5 to 10 seconds, then release it.  
If the pilot flame goes out, repeat this step. 

• 

Push and turn gas

 

control knob counterclockwise  to the "on" position.
