A heating gas appliance does require safe handling. For this reason, we very strongly recommend children not be
allowed to touch the
fi
replace or its controls.
Read and carefully follow all safety warnings and operating instructions contained in this manual, and follow
these important child safety precautions and recommendations:
• Parts of your Valor Fireplace become extremely
hot while in operation. The glass window tempera-
ture can exceed 500º F at full capacity.
• Do not let children touch the glass or any parts
of your
fi
replace even after it is turned o
ff
, as the
surfaces will remain hot for some time.
• Even momentary contact with a hot glass surface
can cause a severe burn, including when the
fi
re-
place is operating at reduced heating capacity.
• The glass window will remain hot for an extended
period of time after the
fi
replace has been turned
o
ff
. Make sure that children do not touch the
fi
re-
place during the cool down period.
• Children and adults should be alerted to the haz-
ards of high surface temperature and should stay
away to avoid burns or clothing ignition.
• Young children should be carefully supervised
when they are in the same room as the appliance.
Toddlers, young children, and others may be sus-
ceptible to accidental contact burns.
A physical barrier is recommended if there are
at-risk individuals in the house. To restrict access
to a
fi
replace or stove, install an adjustable safety
gate to keep toddlers, young children, and other
at-risk individuals out of the room and away from
hot surfaces.
• Keep the remote control handset out of reach of
children at all times. A child safety lockout feature
is included with your remote control, see
Operating
your
fi
replace
on pages 9-10 for details.
• Make sure that the
fi
replace, including the pilot
light, is completely turned o
ff
when children are
present and close supervision is not available—see
pages 9 for details.
• If the
fi
replace is not going to be used for an ex-
tended period of time, remove the batteries from
the remote control handset and battery holder un-
der the
fi
rebox. It is recommended that batteries
are replaced annually —see page 11 for details.

A barrier designed to reduce
the risk of burns from the hot

the protection of children and
other at-risk individuals.
