OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Before operating this appliance, proceed through the
following checklist.
1) Read and understand these instructions before
operating this appliance.
2) Check to see that all wiring is correct and enclosed
to prevent possible shock.
3) Check to ensure there are no gas leaks.
4) Never operate the appliance with the glass
removed.
5) Verify that the flue and the flue cap are
unobstructed.
6) Verify log placement. If the pilot or ignition
electrodes cannot be seen when lighting the unit -
the logs or the embers have been incorrectly
positioned.
7) The unit should never be turned off and on again
without a minimum of a 60-second wait.

the glass. This condensation is normal and will
disappear in a few minutes as the glass heats up.

LIGHTING PROCEDURE
Piccolo
IMPORTANT: The gas control knob cannot be
turned from "PILOT" to "OFF" unless it is partially
depressed.
1) If the control knob is in the "OFF" position proceed
to Step 4.
2) Push in gas control knob and turn clockwise to
"OFF". Knob cannot be turned from "PILOT" to
"OFF" unless knob is pushed in. Do not force.
3) Wait five minutes to allow gas that may have
accumulated in the main burner compartment, to
escape. If you do smell gas, follow the instructions
on the front of this manual. If you don't smell gas
continue on to the next step.
4) Push in and turn the gas control counter clockwise
to "IGN".
5) The piezo igniter will click as a spark jumps across
the terminals at the pilot. It may be necessary to
repeat this several times before the pilot ignites if
there is air in the pilot light pipeline. The pilot is
located at the right, inside the firebox behind the
front log. When the pilot lights continue to hold the
control knob in for approximately 15 seconds, then
release it. The pilot flame should continue to burn.
If the pilot does not remain lit, repeat this
operation, allowing a longer period before
releasing the gas control knob.
6) With the pilot flame established, turn the gas
control knob fully anticlockwise to ignite the burner.
The flame height can then be adjusted as required
by turning the knob clockwise.
