  Placement of Glowing Embers - 

Separate the  Embers (rockwool) into pieces 

about  the size of a quarter (see Figure 46).  Keep 

the pieces fluffed up, not matted.  Distribute 

these pieces over the surface of the burner, 

as shown in Figures 47, 48 and 49.  Do not 

use more than is necessary.  

Ensure that the 

main burner slots remain uncovered by the 

ember material

.  Position the embers on the 

small holes of the ember bed area.

NoteThis appliance is provided with enough 

Glowing Embers for several applications, do 

not use all that is in a new bag at one time. 

For  best  glowing  effect,  replace  the  ember 

material annually.

Place Volcanic 

Stone As Shown

       WARNING

 

DO NOT attempt to install the logs 

until  the  appliance  installation 

has been completed, the gas line 

connected and tested for leaks 

and the initial burner operation 

has been checked out. 

 

The size and position of the log 

set was engineered to give the 

appliance  a  safe,  reliable  and 

attractive  flame  pattern.    Any 

attempt to use a different log set 

in the fireplace will void the war-

ranty and will result in incomplete 

combustion,  sooting,  and  poor 

flame quality.

 

Logs get very hot and will remain 

hot  up  to  one  hour  after  gas 

supply is turned off.  Handle only 

when logs are cool.  Turn off all 

electricity to the appliance before 

you install grate, volcanic stone, 

vermiculite, embers and logs.

 

This appliance is not designed 

to  burn  wood.    Any  attempt  to 

do  so  could  cause  irreparable 

damage  to  the  appliance  and 

prove hazardous to your safety.

 

If logs are not installed according 

to  the  log  installation  instruc-

tions,  flame  impingement  and 

improper  combustion  could 

occur and result in soot and/or 

excessive production of carbon 

monoxide  (CO),  a  colorless, 

odorless, toxic gas.

All logs that have locating notches or slots to 

help ensure that they are properly positioned. 

All top logs that rest on lower logs, do so over 

notches, indents or nubs.  Proper log placement 

is critical to prevent sooting.  Logs should be 

placed in the gaps between the flame peaks and 

should be positioned so they do not impinge 

the flames.
