When the blower is on, the amount of air flow into the room can be adjusted
with the air diverter. When the lever is to the far left the room receives the
air, when the lever is to the far right the air goes out the duct and when
the lever in the middle the air goes to both the duct and the room. Lever is
found above the right end of the control panel, see Figure 5.

2. Start the pilot by pressing the gas control knob and turning it to PILOT.
While holding the gas control knob in, press the piezo ignitor several
times until the pilot light starts. Hold the gas control knob in for thirty
(30) seconds. Check that the pilot has fully engulfed the thermocouple
assembly (see Figure 3).
3. Start the main burner by turning the gas control knob to ON and then turn
the rocker switch to ON. Check that all burner ports have flame.
4. Leak test all gas joints again.

DJUSTMENT
:
The venturi adjustment lever is centered above the control panel.
The venturi allows the amount of air coming into the fireplace to be adjusted in order to accommodate
different climates and venting arrangements. Start the pilot and then the burner. Make sure the pilot
flame is burning normally and none of the burner ports are plugged. Let the fireplace burn for roughly
fifteen (15) minutes and then examine the flames.
The ideal flame will be blue at the base and light orange
above (see Figure 44). The flames should be of medium
height. If the flames look like this, no venturi adjustment is
needed. If the flames are fairly short and mostly blue, the
fireplace is getting too much air. Therefore, the air shutter
should be closed (push in) slightly until the correct flames
are achieved. Flames that are very orange, with tall dark
stringy tips are not getting enough air. Open (pull out) the
venturi until the flames clean up. If the venturi is opened,
then closed all the way, and the correct flames cannot be
attained, turn off the gas and contact the dealer.
