front of fireplace and push both buttons at
the same time. Hold for 6 seconds. The gas
valve will open and electronic ignition will
begin sparking to light the pilot.

WARNING: You must oper-
ate this heater with the fireplace
screen in place. Make sure fire-
place screen is in place before
running heater.
NOTICE: During initial operation of
new heater, burning logs will give
off a paper-burning smell. Open
damper or window to vent smell.
This will only last a few hours.
Because this fireplace has an electronic ignition
system, in the event there is a loss of power, it
will be necessary to manually light the pilot with
the piezo ignitor. After the pilot is lit, the main
burner will light automatically.

Normal
Lighting Instructions
, page 21.
2. Set manual ignition bypass switch on con-
trol panel to ON position (manual ignition
position). See Figure 39, page 23.
3. The pilot is attached to the rear of the front
burner. You will be able to see the pilot
and spark electrode without removing the
screen or logs.
