IMPORTANT:
PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING CAREFULLY
Remove any plastic from trim parts before turning the
fireplace ON.
It is normal for fireplaces fabricated of steel to give off some
expansion and/or contraction noises during the start up or
cool down cycle. Similar noises are found with your furnace
heat exchanger or car engine.
It is not unusual for your Majestic gas fireplace to give
off some odor the first time it is burned. This is due to the
curing of the paint and any undetected oil from the manu-
facturing process.
Please ensure that your room is well ventilated — open
all windows.
It is recommended that you burn your Majestic fireplace
for a least ten (10) hours the first time you use it. If the
optional fan kit has been installed, place the fan switch
in the “OFF” position during this time.

NoTE:
Any remote wiring (i.e. remote control, wall switch,
and optional fan) must be done prior to final finishing to
avoid costly reconstruction.
Only noncombustible materials (i.e. brick, tile, slate, steel,
or other materials with a UL fire rating of Zero) may be used
to cover the black-painted face of the appliance. A 300°F
minimum adhesive may be used to attach facing materials
to the black surface. If joints between the finished wall and
the fireplace surround are sealed, a 300°F minimum sealant
material (General Electric RTV103 or equivalent) must be
used. Combustibles may come to the top and side edges
but not overlay the face.
7. The venting system (chimney) of this fireplace should
be checked at least once a year and if needed your
venting system should be cleaned.

tible materials, gasoline and other flammable vapor and
liquids. This fireplace should not be used as a drying
rack for clothing, nor should Christmas stockings or
decorations be hung on or around the fireplace.

coal, paper or cardboard etc.) be used in this fire-
place.
10. The flow of combustion and ventilation air must not be
obstructed in any way.
11. When the fireplace is installed directly on carpeting,
vinyl tile or any combustible material other than wood,
the fireplace must be installed on a metal or wood panel
extending the full width and depth of the fireplace.

bustion air to operate properly.
