LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT:
Be sure all items on "INSTALLATION CHECK OFF LIST" (pg. 39 have been completed!
CAUTION:
If the pilot goes out, be sure to wait a minimum of five minutes before relighting.
BE SURE TO ALWAYS REMOVE THE GLASS BEFORE RELIGHTING THE PILOT.
1. ALWAYS LIGHT PILOT WITH GLASS REMOVED!
(See drawing, pg. 33for glass door removal).
2. Make sure any gas supply shut-off cocks are open and
Thermostat is "OFF".
3. Push in Gas Cock Dial Slightly and turn clockwise to
"OFF". NOTE: Dial cannot be turned from "PILOT" to
"OFF" unless dial is pushed slightly.
DO NOT FORCE!
4. Wait five (5) minutes to allow gas, which may have
accumulated in main burner compartment to escape.
If you smell gas, STOP.
5. Turn Gas Cock Dial Counterclockwise to "PILOT" position (see
Figure 7:
Gas Valve
).
6. Depress Gas Cock Dial and push in red Piezo igniter button. Once pilot
ignites, continue
depressing dial for about 1/2 minute. If pilot does not remain ignited, repeat operation allowing a longer period be-
fore releasing Gas Dial.
IMPORTANT:
After pilot is lit, system millivolt readings and gas pressure should be taken by qualified installer.
Pilot flame must register a minimum of 325 millivolt (See pg.45).
7. After pilot is lit and before installing logs, turn Gas Dial to "ON" and "cycle" the burner on/off to make certain it ig-
nites promptly and that the flame runs smoothly around burner curve and promptly lights entire burner.
8. With pilot operating, install log module and coals (see pg. 34-38). With logs/coals in place, "cycle" the burner again
to make sure of prompt ignition of burner and that the flame runs smoothly around entire burner and does not "lift off"
burner.
NOTE
: Logs will produce a strong, acrid odor on initial contact with flames (about 2 hrs.).
9. Reinstall glass front & screen by "hanging" slots on upper edge of door over tabs on upper edge of firebox opening.
Then "swing in" lower edge of door. Carefully pull out the two (2) Spring Loaded Door Holding Bars located under
the doorframe. Raise Bars and fit Bars firmly into Bar Holding Brackets on doorframe (see instructions, pg. 33).
NOTE: Be sure doorframe is "centered" in firebox opening. To "center": Release Door Holding Bars, with door
"hanging" in upper slots "slide" door frame (within the slots) to center of firebox. Replace Door Holding Bars.
10. Turn Gas Dial counterclockwise to "ON" then set Thermostat or push Remote Control to turn on burner.
11. Main burner should now light IMMEDIATELY and flame should not "lift" off burner. If there is any delay in igni-
tion or if flame is "lifting off" burner, turn off burner and carefully check for proper installation of logs/coals, vent
system and proper pilot flame impingement on burner and thermopile. Logs or coals must not block pilot flame or
main burner flame. Vent system must be leak proof.
DO NOT PROCEED WITH OPERATION UNLESS BURNER "CYCLES" ON/OFF WITHOUT DELAYS!
12. To reduce heat output, turn Hi/Lo Knob counterclockwise to desired temperature (see
Figure 7: Gas Valve
).
Heat output can be reduced by up to 11,000 BTUH (1/3). Blower can also be turned down.
NEVER "over fire" by increasing BTUH above nameplate specifications.
NEVER turn down (reduce) pilot flame below the minimum 325 millivolt.
13. Open windows for first two hours of operation.
NOTICE: Initial start-up will cause some NON-TOXIC "off gassing" of adhesives, binders, paint, etc. Most nuisance odors will be
eliminated after the first 2 hrs. of operation, however, slight amounts may be present during the first 24 hrs.
SHUT DOWN PROCEDURE:
1. Turn Remote Control or Thermostat to "OFF". Pilot will remain lit for return to normal service.
2. For complete shutdown turn Gas Cock Dial (see
Figure 7: Gas Valve
) to "OFF".
