Check Operation
Turn the fi replace fl ame up and down using the
remote control to con fi rm that the full range of inputs
is achieved—see the remote control operation
instructions on pages 11–15.
Adjust Aeration (if necessary, NG units only)
(LPG units do not have any primary air adjustment.)
Light the
fi re and allow the unit to warm up for 10–15
minutes to evaluate the fl ame picture. Natural gas
burners are equipped with an adjustable shutter to
control primary aeration. See the
fi gures below. The
shutter is factory-set to an aeration gap which will
give optimum performance for the vast majority of
installations.
In a few unusual installations, the fl ame picture may
be improved by adjusting the aeration. The need for
adjustment should be determined only by operating the
appliance with the ceramic logs and window installed.
Increasing aeration will cause the fl ames to appear
more transparent and blue showing more ceramic log
glow.
Decreasing aeration will cause the fl ames to appear
more yellow or orange showing less ceramic log glow.
Too little aeration may result in black carbon
forming and dropping into the fi rebox.

Install Window Skirt and Side Doors
The fi replace comes equipped with a window skirt to
hide the underside of the fi rebox and two side steel
doors to hide the gas and electrical controls.
1. To install the window skirt, simply hook it to the
bottom frame of the window as indicated.
2. Sort the left hand side and the right hand side
doors—the tab to open the door should be towards
the outside at the bottom.
Take one door and locate the top hinge pin in the
holed bracket located inside the top front of the
outer
fi rebox liner.
3. Slide the door up as much as possible and fi t the
lower hinge pin in the bottom hole.
4. Repeat with the other door.
The doors should be maintained closed by a magnet
on each side of the window frame.
