Note:

Where listed vented decorative logs are required, thermostat operation is
not permitted.

Operation

This heater is clean burning. It requires no outside venting. There is no heat loss out
a vent or up a chimney. Heat is generated by both realistic flames and glowing coals.
This heater is designed for vent-free operation with flue damper closed. State and
local codes in some areas prohibit the use of vent-free heaters. You can operate heater
as a vented product by opening flue damper.

Safety Device

This heater has a pilot with an Oxygen Depletion Sensor Shutoff System (ODS).
The ODS/pilot is a required feature for vent-free room heaters. The ODS/pilot
shuts off the heater if there is not enough fresh air.

Piezo Ignition System

This heater has a piezo ignitor. This system requires no matches, batteries, or
other sources to light heater.

1. Remove logs and heater base assembly from carton. 

Note:

 Do not pick up

heater base assembly by burners. This could damage heater. Always handle
base assembly by grate.

2. Remove all protective packaging applied to logs and heater for shipment.
3. Check all items for any shipping damage. If damaged, promptly inform dealer

where you bought heater.

 WARNING

This heater shall not be installed in a confined space unless
provisions are provided for adequate combustion and ventila-
tion air. Read the following instructions to insure proper fresh
air for this and other fuel-burning appliances in your home.

Today’s homes are built more energy efficient than ever. New materials, in-
creased insulation, and new construction methods help reduce heat loss in homes.
Home owners weather strip and caulk around windows and doors to keep the cold
air out and the warm air in. During heating months, home owners want their
homes as airtight as possible.

While it is good to make your home energy efficient, your home needs to breathe.
Fresh air must enter your home. All fuel-burning appliances need fresh air for
proper combustion and ventilation.

Exhaust fans, fireplaces, clothes dryers, and fuel burning appliances draw air
from the house to operate. You must provide adequate fresh air for these appli-
ances. This will insure proper venting of vented fuel-burning appliances.
