Starting the Heater 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 heater - this is normal.
•
Blue Flames
will occur on the heater when it first comes on. After fifteen minutes the flames will turn
a more realistic yellow and orange color.
•
Certain installations use a remote "wall switch" to turn the heater on and off. If this is the case, leave
the ON/OFF switch "ON".

See the instructions included
with the remote for details on
operation.
For systems with wall
thermostats, use this switch to
control the temperature (right
is hotter, left cooler). Some
systems require the on/off
switch to be on.
See the instructions
included with the
remote for changing
the battery.
•
Do not place any combustible items on top of or directly in front of the heater, even temporarily. The
optional thermostat may start the heater causing a combustible item to ignite.
•
If the heater 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.
Adjusting the Flame Height
•
Your heater has an adjustable flame to tailor the look and heat output to your specific needs. It is
adjusted by turning the middle dial on the gas control valve.
