Trim and Barrier Screen Installation

Install the trim chosen by the customer for their 

fi

 replace. Install as well the barrier screen which is 

provided with the trim.
Show the customer how to remove the barrier screen 
to access the controls. 
Follow the instructions provided with the trim and leave 
those instructions behind for the customer’s further 
reference.

Operation Check

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 10–14.

Aeration Settings

Light the 

fi

 re and allow the unit to warm up for 10–15 

minutes to evaluate the 

fl

 ame picture. The burner is 

equipped with an adjustable shutter to control primary 
aeration (NG only). 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 fuel bed and window installed.

Increasing aeration

 will cause the 

fl

 ames to appear 

more transparent and blue showing more ceramic 
effects glow.

Decreasing aeration

 will cause the 

fl

 ames to appear 

more yellow or orange showing less ceramic effects glow.

Too little aeration may result in black carbon 
forming and dropping into the fi rebox.

To access the air shutter, remove the front middle 
platform as indicated. The air shutter is located under 
the burner as shown in the illustrations. Loosen the air 
shutter screw, adjust and re-tighten.
