5.0 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

If the appliance is equipped with decorative glass doors, they must be fully opened when operating this gas log 
set.

5.1 LIGHTING 

INSTRUCTIONS

A

C

B

A. 

Locate the pilot burner at the rear of the log set on the right 
side.

B. 

Turn the gas control knob to the pilot setting 
(on the left side of the appliance closest to the 
back).

C. 

With the control knob depressed, push the 
piezo igniter continuously until the pilot lights. 
Hold the control knob in for 1 minute and 
release. If the pilot goes out, repeat steps B 
and C.

D. 

Once the pilot stays burning, make certain 
that the on / off switch is in the off position. 
Turn  the  control  knob  counter-clockwise  to  the  on            
position.

E. 

Turn the on / off switch to the on position to ignite the burner. 
This appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system 
by closing the individual manual shut off valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping 
system at test pressure equal to or less than ½ psi (3.5 kPa).

If appliance shuts off, do not relight until you provide fresh air. If appliance keeps shutting off, have it serviced. 
Keep burner and control compartment clean.
When lit for the fi rst time, the appliance will emit a slight odour for a few hours. This is a normal temporary con-
dition caused by the curing of the logs and the “burn-off” of internal paints and lubricants used in the manufac-
turing process and will not occur again. Open a window to ventilate the room during this burn off period.

5.2  MATCH LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS

A. 

Remove any items necessary for easy access to the ODS (for example: logs, screens, etc.).

B. 

Follow appropriate lighting instructions found previously. Instead of pushing and releasing the piezo 
button, light a match and hold the fl ame to the end of the pilot and ignite the pilot.

C. 

After control knob has been released and pilot stays lit, reinstall any items that were removed for pilot 
access.

D. 

Call a qualifi ed service technician for repair or replacement of the piezo ignitor.

After extended periods of non-operation such as following a vacation or a warm weather season, the appliance 
may emit a slight odour for a few hours. This is caused by dust particles burning off. In both cases, open a 
window to suffi ciently ventilate the room.

Purge the gas line with the glass door open. Assure that a continuous gas fl ow is at the burner before closing 
the door.
