LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
Using the Igniter
1.
Read and understand all operating instructions before lighting.
2.
Before beginning, make sure the control knob is in the “OFF” position.
3.
Connect your LP gas tank (see previous pages).
4.
Slowly open the valve on your LP gas tank.
5.
Prepare to ignite your fireplace by placing one hand on the control
knob and one hand on the igniter button (see diagram). DO NOT
lean over any part of the burner. Verify that the area around the
burner is free of hazards.
6.
Push and hold the igniter button. You should hear a clicking sound.
7.
While keeping the ignition button depressed, use your other hand to push in and turn the
control knob counterclockwise to the “LIGHT” position.
8.
Once the burner ignites, release the igniter button, but continue to keep the control knob
pushed in for 15 seconds.
WARNING:
If ignition does not occur in 15 seconds, turn the control knob to the “OFF”
position and turn the gas off at its source. Make sure there is no source of ignition around
the fireplace and wait at least 5 minutes until the gas has cleared to repeat the lighting
procedure. Failure to do so could result in a large flashback of pooled gas, causing property
damage, serious injury, or death.
9.
After successfully lighting the fireplace, release the control knob and turn it to the “LOW” setting.
Observe the flame and make sure that all the burner ports are lit.
10.
Adjust the flame to the desired height using the control knob.
