E. Lava Rock, Rockwool/Ember Placement
WARNING! Risk of Explosion! Follow ember placement
instructions in manual. DO NOT place embers directly over

placed embers interfere with proper burner operation.
Placing the Lava Rock
See Section 14F for Lava Rock placement instructions.
• Place lava rock on base pan. Do NOT place on burner
top.
Placing the Ember Material
Ember material is shipped with this gas appliance. To place
the ember material:
• Embers CANNOT be placed directly over ports. See
Figure 14.4 for the only exception to this guideline. Care
should be taken not to cover the lighting trail of ports
(from back to front).
• When placing Glowing Embers
®
onto the burner care
should be taken so that the ports are not covered. Place
the dime-size ember pieces near the port holes in the
burner top (see Figure 14.3). Failure to follow this pro-
cedure will likely cause lighting and sooting problems.
• Some of the small port holes should be covered with
ember material. See Figure 14.4 for detail.
• Save the remaining ember materials for use during
appliance servicing. The embers provided should be
enough for 3 to 5 applications.
