FOR YOUR SAFETY

READ BEFORE LIGHTING

WARNING: If you do not fol-

low these instructions exactly,

a fire or explosion may result

causing property damage, per

sonal injury or loss of life.

A. This appliance has a pilot which must

be lighted by hand. When lighting the pi

lot, follow these instructions exactly.

B. BEFORE LIGHTING smell all around

the appliance area for gas. Be sure to

smell next to the floor because some

gas is heavier than air and will settle

on the floor.

WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS

• Do not try to light any appliance.

• Do not touch any electric switch; do

not use any phone in your building.

• Immediately call your gas supplier

from a neighbor’s phone. Follow the

gas supplier’s instructions.

• If you cannot reach your gas supplier,

call the fire department.

C. Use only your hand to push in control

knob. Never use tools. If the knob will

not push in or slide by hand, don’t

try to repair it, call a qualified service

technician. Force or attempted repair

may result in a fire or explosion.

OPERATION

OPERATION GUIDELINES

• When used for the first time, fireplace may

emit a slight odor for about 16 to 24 hours.

This is normal and is due to “curing” of logs

and “burn-in” of internal paint and lubricant

used in manufacturing process.

• Keep compartments, logs, burners and

area surrounding logs clean by vacuuming

and brushing at least twice a year or as

necessary.

• Turn off gas and remote switch before

servicing appliance. Any safety screen or

guard removed for servicing the fireplace

must be replaced prior to operation.

• Have a qualified agency periodically inspect

vent system at the start of each heating

season for any obstruction which will hinder

its normal operation. Never obstruct flow

of combustion and ventilation air. Keep

front of fireplace clear of all obstacles and

materials.
