AIR RESTRICTOR ADJUSTMENT 

The fireplace is equipped with a restrictor plate that is located inside the top chamber of the fireplace. Depending upon the 

vent configuration, you may be required to adjust the restrictor position
1.  Remove glass frame.  

See Glass Frame Removal, page 31.

2.  Using a Phillips screw driver, loosen the screw that secures the air restrictor.  Do not back the screw all the way out.
3.  Slide the baffle on top of the restrictor plate such that it blocks a percentage of the grill opening.  Refer to the chart below 

for recommended settings.
