4
Close and secure the door (see step 1c).
5
Turn on gas to the
heater. Leak test all
gas joints prior to
starting the
appliance. Start the
pilot. Start the main
burner. Leak test all
gas joints again.
7
Check the pilot flame
to make sure it looks
like the illustration to
the right. Adjust the
pilot flame if
necessary.
6
Let the heater burn
for fifteen minutes.
Adjust the air shutter,
if necessary, to
achieve the correct
looking flame (see
the illustration to the
right).
¥
The air shutter
adjusts the amount of
air that mixes with
the gas before it exits
the burner holes. It
is used to fine-tune
the flame for
differences in
altitude and vent
configuration.
!
If the air shutter is in
its fully open
position, yet the
flames remain sooty,
shut off gas to the
heater and contact
your dealer for a
remedy.
The pilot flame should impinge the top 3/8Ó (10
mm) of the thermopile. If it does not, you may
need to turn the pilot up.
To adjust the pilot flame, remove the cover screw (and
gasket) and turn the needle valve. Clockwise lowers
the flame while counter-clockwise raises it.

Correct
Flames should be blue at the
base, yellow-orange on the top.
If the flames are too tall or sooty on
the ends, push up on the lever.
If the flames are all blue and
short, pull down the lever.
Not Enough Air
Too Much Air
Locate the air shutter adjustment
lever behind the gas control valve.
Move it up or down until the flame
looks correct. Pushing up gives the
flame more air (making it bluer).
Pulling it down cuts air down,
making it more orange.
NOTE
: If the air control is all the
way up, yet the flames remain
sooty, shut off gas to the fireplace
and contact a qualified gas service
technician.
NOTE
: The logs must be installed correctly to
monitor the flame while adjusting the air shutter.

The flames should burn right off
the top of the burner ports (if they
are too blue, adjust the air control).
If the flames are lifting, yet the
vent configuration is correct,
contact your dealer.

If the flames are ghosting, yet the
vent configuration is correct,
contact your dealer.
!
If the vent configuration is installed incorrectly the vent may cause the flames inside the heater to lift
or "ghost" Ð a dangerous situation. Inspect the flames after installation to insure proper performance.
If the vent configuration is correct, yet the flames are lifting or ghosting, shut off gas to the heater
and contact the dealer for information on remedying the problem.
7
Turn the flame adjust knob to its highest position - the flames should be approximately 12"tall.
Check the flame on low position. The flames should burn off of each burner hole. If the heater does
not work correctly, contact your dealer for a remedy.
8
Give this manual to the home owner and fully explain the operation of this heater.
