Installing the Trim
Combustible materials may be brought up to the specified
clearances on the side and top front edges of the fireplace,
but
MUST NEVER
overlap onto the front face. The joints
between the finished wall and the fireplace top and sides
can only be sealed with a 300° F. (149° C) minimum sealant.
WARNING: WHEN FINISHING THE FIREPLACE,
NEVER OBSTRUCT OR MODIFY THE AIR INLET/
OUTLET GRILLES IN ANY MANNER.
Install optional marble and brass trim surround kits as
desired. Marble, brass, brick, tile, or other non-combustible
materials can be used to cover up the gap between the
finish wall material (usually sheetrock or wood) and the
fireplace.
Do not obstruct or modify the air inlet/outlet grilles. When
overlapping on both sides, leave enough space so that the
bottom grille can be lowered and the trim door removed.
Positioning the Logs
If the gas logs have been factory installed they should not
need to be positioned. If the logs have been packaged
separately, refer to the instructions that accompany the
logs.
Save the log instructions with this manual.
If sooting occurs, the logs might need to be repositioned
slightly to avoid excessive flame impingement.

Step 10. Installing Trim, Logs,
and Ember Material
Placing the Ember Material
Ember material is shipped with this gas fireplace. To place
the ember material:
• Pull the four glass latches off of the tabs on the glass
frame. Remove glass door from the unit (see Figure 40).
• Embers CANNOT be placed directly over ports. 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 embers along side the port trail, but not on or in
between the ports. Failure to follow this procedure will
likely cause lighting and sooting problems.
• Save the remaining ember materials for use during fire-
place servicing.
• Replace the glass door and a front trim door on the unit.
• Pull out and latch the glass clips onto the tabs on the
glass frame.
