TING INSTRUCTIONS

The on-off switch is located on the back of the unit at the top left corner. When lit for the first time, the fireplace will
emit a slight odour for a few hours. This is a normal temporary condition caused by the curing of the logs and the
"burn-in" of internal paints and lubricants used in the manufacturing process and will not occur again. Simply
open a window to sufficiently ventilate the room. After extended periods of non-operation such as following a
vacation or a warm weather season, the fireplace may emit a slight odour for a few hours. This is caused by dust
particles in the heat exchanger burning off. Open a window to sufficiently ventilate the room.

LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS: 

WARNING

 

The gas valve has an interlock device which will not allow the pilot burner to be

lit until the thermocouple has cooled. Allow approximately 60 seconds for the thermocouple to cool.

• Do not touch any electric switch; do not use any phone in your building.
• Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbour's phone.
Follow the gas supplier's instructions.
• If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire department.

FOR YOUR SAFETY READ BEFORE OPERATING

A.

 This fireplace is equipped with a pilot which must be lit by hand while following these instructions exactly.

B.

 Before operating smell all around the fireplace area for gas and next to the floor because some gas is heavier than

air and will settle on the floor.

C.

 Use only your hand to turn the gas control knob. Never use tools. If the knob will not turn by hand, do not try to

repair it. Call a qualified service technician. Force or attempted repair may result in a fire or explosion.

D. 

Do not use this fireplace if any part has been under water. Immediately call a qualified service technician to inspect

the fireplace and replace any part of the control system and any gas control which has been under water.

WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS:

• Turn off all gas to the fireplace.
• Open windows.
• Do not try to light any appliance.

1. 

 In order to properly clean the burner and pilot as-

sembly, remove the logs to expose both assemblies.

2.

  Keep the control compartment, logs, burner, air

shutter opening and the area surrounding the logs
clean by vacuuming or brushing, 

at least once a year

.

3.  

Check to see that all burner ports are burning.

Clean out any of the ports which may not be burning
or are not burning properly. (end brick panel must be
removed in order to facilitate burner removal, where
applicable.)

4. 

 Check to see that the pilot flame is large enough to engulf

the thermocouple and thermopile and reaches toward the burner
with the third jet.

5.

  Replace the cleaned logs.

6.  

Check to see that the main and runner burners ignite com-

pletely on all openings when the gas knob for the burners is
turned on. A 5 to 10 second total light-up period is satisfactory.
If ignition takes longer, consult your Napoleon dealer / distribu-
tor.

7.  

Check that the gasketing on the sides, top and bottom of the

door is not broken or missing. Replace if necessary.

     TURN OFF THE GAS AND ELECTRICAL POWER BEFORE SERVICING THE FIREPLACE.

CAUTION: Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls. Wiring errors can cause improper and danger-
ous operation. Verify proper operation after servicing. This fireplace and its venting system should be inspected before
use and at least annually by a qualified service person. The fireplace area must be kept clear and free of combustible
materials, gasoline or other flammable vapours and liquids. The flow of combustion and ventilation air must not be
obstructed.
