FIRST FIRE
The
FIRST FIRE
in your stove is part of the
paint curing process. To ensure that the paint is
properly cured, it is recommended that you burn
your fi replace for at least four (4) hours the fi rst
time you use it with the fan on. When fi rst oper-
ated, the unit will release an odour caused by the
curing of the paint and the burning off of any oils
remaining from manufacturing. Smoke detectors
in the house may go off at this time. Open a few
windows to ventilate the room for a couple of
hours. The glass may require cleaning.

turned from "PILOT" to "OFF" unless it is
partially depressed.

never
be operated with the glass or door
open.
