Position the assembly in the desired location.
This location must be adjacent to the gas supply
line. You must have easy access to the gas valve
control knob after it is installed and connected to
the gas supply because the ON/OFF gas valve is
used to turn the burner on and off.

glass provided for best

ffect. Keep glass clear
of
igniton electrode to avoid accidental blockage.
Note:
A percentage of glass beads may arrive split in
half. This is normal. Additional beads may split
after use. This is also normal due to the physical
properties of glass.
