Starting the Heater for the First Time
Burn the heater at a high setting with the blower off for an extended period (up to 48 hours). This will
cure the painted surfaces.
Fumes
from the paint curing and oil burning off the steel will occur. This
is normal. We recommend opening a window to vent the room.
Condensation
may appear on the glass each time you start the heater - this is normal.
Blue Flames
will occur on the heater when it first comes on. After fifteen minutes the flames will turn
a more realistic yellow and orange color.
Verify the batteries are installed (see page 36).
Location of Controls
Direct Operation
The fireplace may be directly operated from the battery holder (accessed by removing the face). The three
positions are below (see
Figure 3
):
ON (all the way left)
– Burner turns on (regardless of transmitter settings).
OFF (all the way right)
– Burner turns off (regardless of transmitter settings).
REMOTE (middle position)
– Burner is controlled by the transmitter.

NOTE
: When the battery holder switch is turned to ON or OFF, the mode settings (Flame Height, Comfort
Control) will remain in the same state as before the switch was moved (i.e.: the IFC “remembers” the last
setting). If you wish to adjust the mode settings use the transmitter mode button to adjust the settings.
The thermostat and burner on/off operating functions will not work on the transmitter.
