C. Check Pilot Flame Appearance
Pilot fl ame must contact the thermocouple and thermopile
for reliable appliance operation.
• Pilot
fl ame should be as shown in Figure 12.1.
D. After Appliance is Lit
Initial Break-in Procedure
When you light the appliance, you may notice that it pro-
duces heat which does have an associated odor or smell.
If you feel this odor is excessive it may require the initial
three to four hour continuous burn on high followed by a
second burn up to 12 hours to fully drive off any odor from
paint and lubricants used in the manufacturing process.
Condensation of the glass is normal.
Note
: The appliance should be run three to four hours
on the initial start-up. Turn it off and let it cool completely.
Remove and clean the glass. Replace the glass and run
the appliance for an additional 12 hours. This will help to
cure the products used in the paint and logs.
During this break-in period it is recommended that some
windows in the house be opened for air circulation. This will
help avoid setting off smoke detectors, and help eliminate any
odors associated with the appliance’s initial burning.
