OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
1)
Read and understand these instructions
before operating this appliance.
2)
Check to see that all wiring is correct and
enclosed to prevent possible shock.
3)
Check to ensure there are no gas leaks.
4)
Make sure the glass in the door frame is
properly positioned. Never operate the ap-
pliance with the glass removed. Never strike
the glass.
5)
Verify that the venting and cap are unob-
structed.
6)
Verify log placement. If the pilot cannot be
seen when lighting the unit - the logs have
been incorrectly positioned.
7)
The unit should never be turned off, and on
again without a minimum of a 60 second
wait.
the fi rst time you use it with the fan on. When
fi rst operated, the unit will release an odour
caused by the curing of the paint and the burn-
ing off of any oils remaining from manufactur-
ing. Smoke detectors in the house may go off
at this time. Open a few windows to ventilate
the room for a couple of hours. The glass may
require cleaning.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CLEAN THE GLASS
WHILE IT IS STILL
HOT
!
Note: When the glass is cold and the appli-
ance is lit, it may cause condensation
and fog the glass. This condensation
is normal and will disappear in a few
minutes as the glass heats up.
During the fi rst few fi res, a white fi lm
may develop on the glass front as part
of the curing process. The glass should
be cleaned or the fi lm will bake on and
become very diffi cult to remove. Use a
non-abrasive cleaner and NEVER clean
the glass while it is hot.
IMPORTANT: Gas on/off knob cannot be
turned from "PILOT" to "OFF" unless it is
partially depressed.
