START-UP ISSUES

Issue

Why....Possible Solutions

1.  Condensation on glass

2.  Blue flames

3.  Odor from unit

4.  Film on the glass

1.  This is a result of gas combustion and temperature varia-
tions.  As the unit warms, this condensation should disap-
pear.

2.  This is a result of normal operation and the flames will
begin to yellow as the unit is allowed to burn.

3.  When first operated, this unit may release an odor for the
first several hours.  This is caused by the curing of the paint
and the burning off of any oils remaining from manufactur-
ing.

4.  This is a normal result of the curing process of the paint
and logs.  Glass should be cleaned within 4-6 hours of initial
burning to remove deposits left by oils from the manufactur-
ing process.  A nonabrasive cleaner, such as 
may be necessary.

NEVER USE GASOLINE , GASOLINE-TYPE LANTERN FUEL, KEROSENE, CHARCOAL
LIGHTER FLUID OR SIMILAR LIQUIDS IN THIS APPLIANCE.  KEEP ANY FLAMMABLE LIQUIDS
