Starting the Fireplace for the First Time
Burn the heater at a high setting with the blower off for an extended period (up to 48 hours). This will
cure the painted surfaces.
Fumes
from the paint curing and oil burning off the steel will occur. This
is normal. We recommend opening a window to vent the room.
Condensation
may appear on the glass each time you start the fireplace - this is normal.
Blue Flames
will occur on the fireplace when it first comes on. After fifteen minutes the flames will
turn a more realistic yellow and orange color.
Certain installations use a remote, thermostat, or wall switch to turn the fireplace on and off. If this is
the case, leave the ON/OFF switch "ON".
Verify the power backup and control light batteries are installed (see page 11).
Turning the Fireplace On and Off
Use the main burner switch to turn the main burner on and off.
NOTE FOR REMOTES, THERMOSTATS, OR WALL SWITCHES
:
The on/off switch on the fireplace may be required to be left in the ON or OFF position for the fireplace to
operate. Consult your installer or dealer for details.
Do not place any combustible items on top of or directly in front of the fireplace, even temporarily. An
optional thermostat may start the fireplace causing a combustible item to ignite.
If the fireplace turns on and off frequently while using the thermostat, you may want to adjust the
flame height down until it produces just enough heat needed.
Comfort Control
The rear portion of the burner may be shut off to lower the heat output and flame size from the burner
(this is called the comfort control). Use the comfort control switch to adjust this as desired.
