IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

Installer: Please leave these instructions with the owner for 

future reference.
For Installation In Solid Fuel Burning Fireplaces. Do not burn 

wood or solid fuels in a fireplace where a decorative gas log 

set is installed. This appliance is for installation only in a solid 

fuel  burning  fireplace,  masonry  fireplace  or  manufactured 

fireplace.

WARNING:

 Any modification to this gas log set or to controls 

can be dangerous. Improper installation or use of the gas 

log set can cause serious injury or death from fire, burns, 

explosion or carbon monoxide poisoning.
1.  Please follow all local codes regarding installation, com-

bustion and ventilation air or in the absence of local codes 

follow the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1(U.S. in-

stallation), or CAN/CGA-B149, Installation Code (Canada 

installation).

2.  Proper installation, burner pan location and log placement 

is important to achieve optimum look and performance 

of your gas log set. The logs have been designed for 

easy location and placement on the grate and must be 

followed for proper operation.

3.  Do not operate this log set with glass doors in the closed 

position. A fireplace screen must be in place when the log 

set is burning. Adequate combustion air must be provided 

for proper venting. All flames should go up and out the 

top of the firebox into the flue vent. If any flames float or 

curl forward into the room 

do not operate appliance. 

Check for an open  flue and adequate  combustion  air 

into the room. A damper clamp must be installed on the 

firebox damper to maintain an open flue vent condition.

4.  Young children must be carefully supervised when they 

are in the same room as the gas log while in operation. 

Do not place stockings, clothing or any flammable mate

-

rial above or near the fireplace.

5.  Do not substitute or use materials other than those sup-

plied for use with the log set.

DO NOT OPERATE THIS GAS LOG SET WITH 

GLASS DOORS CLOSED.

  Due to high temperatures the appliance should be 

located out of traffic and away from furniture and 

draperies.

•  Children and adults should be alerted to the hazards 

of high surface temperatures and should stay away 

to avoid burns or clothing ignition.

•  Young children should be carefully supervised when 

they are in the same room as the appliance.

•  Clothing or other flammable material should not be 

placed on or near the appliance.

•  Do not place trash or other articles on the log set 

during operation.

•  During  manufacturing,  fabricating  and  shipping, 

various  components  of  this  appliance  are  treated 

with  certain  oils,  films  or  bonding  agents.  These 

bonding agents are not harmful but may produce 

annoying smoke and smells as they are burned off 

during initial operation of the appliance. This is a 

normal temporary occurrence. A window should be 

opened during the initial bake out period. 

•  Keep burner and control compartment clean. 
•  WARNING: Before installing in a solid fuel burning 

fireplace,  the  chimney  flue  and  firebox  must  be 

cleaned of soot, creosote, ashes and loose paint by 

a qualified chimney cleaner.

•  WARNING: Do not allow fans to blow directly into 

the fireplace. Avoid any drafts that alter burner flame 

patterns.

•  WARNING: Do not use a blower insert, heat exchanger 

insert or other accessory not approved for use with 

this appliance.

• 

Installation and repair should be done by a 

QUALIFIED 

SERVICE PERSON. 

The appliance should be inspected 

before use and at least annually by a qualified service 

person. More frequent cleaning may be required due to 

excessive lint from carpeting, bedding materials, etc. 

It is imperative that control compartments, burners 

and circulating air passageways of the appliance be 

kept clean.

•  DO NOT 

put anything around the fireplace that will 

obstruct the flow of ventilation air.

• DO

  keep  the  appliance  area  clear  and  free  from 

combustible material, gasoline and other flammable 

vapors and liquids.

•  A yearly examination and cleaning of the venting 

system of the solid-fuel burning fireplace must be 

performed by a qualified agency.

• DO 

make a periodic visual check of pilot and burners. 

Clean and replace damaged parts.

•  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.
