OPERATION
WARNING
Do not use this appliance if any part has been under water.
Immediately call a qualified service technician to inspect the
appliance and replace any part of the control system and any
gas control that has been under water.
All units with gas control valves must be lit by a Safety Pilot. For
standard units, the pilot is located at the right, rear, center of the
unit.
Follow these instructions exactly when lighting the appliance.
BEFORE LIGHTING, smell around the appliance area for gas. Be
sure to smell next to the floor, as L.P. gas is heavier than air and
will settle to the floor. Use only your hand to rotate the gas control
knob. Never use tools. If the knob will not turn by hand, do not try
to repair it; call a qualified service technician or installer. Force or
attempted repair may result in a fire or explosion.
WARNING
All gas burning appliances produce smoke and carbon mon
-
oxide gas during operation. These fumes can be harmful if the
appliance is used in any other than a fully vented fireplace.
WARNING
A fireplace screen must be in place when this appliance is
in operation. Unless other provisions for combustion air are
provided, the screen shall have an opening(s) for introduction
of combustion air.
WARNING
When this decorative gas appliance is used in a fireplace
equipped with a combustion air kit and glass doors, the glass
doors should remain open during log set operation. This will
maximize the radiant heat provided to the surrounding area,
and minimize overheating of any valve installation. The glass
doors may be closed when the log set is not in use.
DOOR OPERATION
OPERATE THE FIREPLACE WITH THE BIFOLD GLASS DOORS IN ONLY THE FULLY OPEN POSITION.
NOTE: Always close the mesh firescreens when operating the fireplace with the glass doors fully open.

DO NOT operate the fireplace with the doors partially
open or closed. Operating the fireplace with the doors
partially open or closed creates a hazardous situation.
•
Partially open doors can cause sooting on front of
the fireplace.
•
Closed doors can cause the glass to overheat and
shatter.
