DO NOT BURN THE APPLIANCE
WITHOUT THE GLASS FRONT IN
PLACE.
During the fi rst few fi res, a white fi lm may
develop on the glass front as part of the cur-
ing process. The glass should be cleaned or
the fi lm will bake on and become very diffi cult
to remove. Use a non-abrasive cleaner and
NEVER clean the glass while it is hot.
NORMAL OPERATING
SOUNDS OF
GAS APPLIANCES
It is possible that you will hear some sounds
from your gas appliance. This is perfectly normal
due to the fact that there are various gauges
and types of steel used within your appliance.
Listed below are some examples. All are
normal
operating sounds
and should not be considered
as defects in your appliance.
Burner Tray:
The burner tray is positioned directly under the
burner tube(s) and logs and is made of a differ-
ent gauge material from the rest of the fi rebox
and body. Therefore, the varying thicknesses of
steel will expand and contract at slightly different
rates which can cause "ticking" and "cracking"
sounds. You should also be aware that as there
are temperature changes within the unit these
sounds will likely re-occur. Again, this is normal
for steel fi reboxes.
Pilot Flame:
While the pilot fl ame is on it can make a very
slight "whisper" sound.
Gas Control Valve:
As the gas control valve turns ON and OFF, a
dull clicking sound may be audible, this is normal
operation of a gas regulator or valve.
Unit Body/Firebox:
Different types and thicknesses of steel will
expand and contract at different rates resulting
in some "cracking" and "ticking" sounds will be
heard throughout the cycling process.
OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
1)
Read and understand these instructions
before operating this appliance.
2)
Check to see that all wiring is correct and
enclosed to prevent possible shock.
3)
Check to ensure there are no gas leaks.
4)
Make sure the glass in the door frame is
properly positioned. Never operate the ap-
pliance with the glass removed.
5)
Verify that the venting and cap are unob-
structed.
6)
Ensure that the brick panels are installed.
7)
Verify log placement. If the pilot cannot be
seen when lighting the unit, the logs have
been incorrectly positioned.
8)
The unit should never be turned off, and on
again without a minimum of a 60 second
wait.
2)
Turn gas control knob so indicator points
to "OFF" position and allow 5 minutes for
any gas in the combustion chamber to
escape.
3)
Turn gas control knob counterclockwise
so indicator points to the "PILOT" posi-
tion. Depress the gas control knob fully.
Depress the igniter button several times
until the pilot lights. After approximately one
minute, release the gas control knob. The
pilot fl ame should continue to burn. If the
pilot does not remain lit, repeat operation
allowing a longer period before releasing
gas control knob.
4)
When the pilot stays lit, turn the gas knob
further counterclockwise to the "ON" posi-
tion.
5)
Use the wall switch, thermostat or remote
control to turn on the unit.
6)
Rotate the fl ame height regulator to adjust
the fl ame height higher or lower.
SHUTDOWN
PROCEDURE
1)
Use the wall switch, thermostat or remote
control to turn off the main burner.
2)
Turn the main gas control clockwise to the
"OFF" position to turn off the pilot.
3)
Turn off all electric power to appliance if
service is to be performed.
FIRST FIRE
The fi rst fi re in your stove is part of the paint cur-
ing 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 operated, the unit will release an
odour caused by the curing of the paint, the
burning off of any oils remaining from manufac-
turing. 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 panel may require cleaning
after the unit has cooled down.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CLEAN THE
GLASS WHILE IT IS HOT.
Note: When the glass is cold and the appli-
ance is lit, it may cause condensation
and fog the glass. This condensation
is normal and will disappear in a few
minutes as the glass heats up.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
LIGHTING
PROCEDURE
IMPORTANT: Gas cock knob cannot be
turned from "PILOT" to "OFF" unless it is
partially depressed.
1)
Turn burner OFF using "ON/OFF" switch.
IMPORTANT
To ignite or reignite the pilot,
you must fi rst release the ten-
sion springs below the door.
Only when the pilot holds, without pressure
being applied to the control knob, reapply the
tension springs to the door. The unit
must
not
be operated with the tension springs
unattached.
