WARNING:
READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO OPERATE
THIS APPLIANCE. DO NOT ALLOW ANYONE TO
OPERATE THIS APPLIANCE WHO HAS NOT READ
AND UNDERSTOOD THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
WARNING:
OBSERVE CAUTION NEAR THE GLASS PANEL. THE
GLASS MAY SHATTER IF STRUCK BY AN OBJECT.
ALWAYS HANDLE THE GLASS PANEL WITH CARE.
WARNING:
DANGER OF SEVERE INJURY. THIS APPLIANCE
CAN BE SET TO OPERATE THERMOSTATICALLY.
BE AWARE THAT THE APPLIANCE MAY BE VERY
HOT EVEN WHEN THE BURNER IS NOT APPAR-
ENTLY OPERATING. KEEP CHILDREN AWAY
FROM THE APPLIANCE.
Follow the lighting instructions on the inside
back cover of this manual.
1.
Front Burner Control:
Use the ball valve within the con-
trols compartment to turn the front auxiliary burner on
and off to increase or decrease the appliance input rate.
The valve should only be fully opened or fully closed.
Do not use the valve to regulate the front burner flame
intensity. Use only the main gas valve regulator knob
to modulate flame height.
2. For the first several hours of operation, it is common
to detect some odor as the metal and manufacturing
materials cure under heat. This condition is temporary
and can be alleviated by allowing plenty of fresh air to
circulate through the area.
3. Condensation may develop on the glass upon each
lighting of the appliance. This “fog” will disappear as
the glass heats.
4.
IMPORTANT: IT WILL BE NECESSARY TO CLEAN THE
GLASS AFTER THE FIRST FEW FIRES. A white powdery
residue will be evident which results from the burner
media curing. Use a non-abrasive household glass
cleaner and warm water. IF THE GLASS IS NOT CLEANED,
THIS RESIDUE CAN CAUSE THE GLASS TO BECOME
PERMANENTLY ETCHED. DO NOT USE AMMONIA-BASED
CLEANERS.
5. Keep the control compartments and area under the
appliance free of dust. Always keep the appliance area
clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline
and other flammable liquids.
6. This appliance is operated with a continuously burning
pilot flame. Exercise caution when using household
products containing combustible vapors.
7.
CAUTION: DO NOT OPERATE THIS APPLIANCE WITH
THE GLASS PANEL REMOVED, CRACKED OR BROKEN.
REPLACEMENT OF THE GLASS SHOULD BE DONE BY A
LICENSED OR QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSON. USE ONLY
REPLACEMENT GLASS PROVIDED BY YOUR AUTHORIZED
