OPERATING FIREPLACE
OPERATION GUIDELINES
• When used for the first time, the fireplace may
emit a slight odor for about 16 to 24 hours. This
is normal and is due to the “curing” of the logs
and the “burn-in” of internal paint and lubricant
used in the manufacturing process.
• Keep compartments, logs, burners and area sur-
rounding logs clean by vacuuming and brushing
at least twice a year or as necessary.
• Turn off gas and remote switch before servicing
appliance. Any safety screen or guard removed
for servicing the fireplace must be replaced
prior to operation.
• Have a qualified agency periodically inspect
vent system at the start of each heating season
for any obstruction which will hinder its normal
operation. Never obstruct the flow of combus-
tion and ventilation air. Keep the front of the
fireplace clear of all obstacles and materials.
FOR YOUR SAFETY
READ BEFORE LIGHTING
WARNING: If you do not fol-
low these instructions exactly,
a fire or explosion may result
causing property damage, per-
sonal injury or loss of life.
A. This appliance has a pilot which must be
lighted by hand. When lighting the pilot,
follow these instructions exactly.
B. BEFORE LIGHTING smell all around the
appliance area for gas. Be sure to smell next
to the floor because some gas is heavier than
air and will settle on the floor.
WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS
• Do not try to light any appliance.
• Do not touch any electric switch; do not
use any phone in your building.
• Immediately call your gas supplier from
a neighborʼs phone. Follow the gas
supplierʼs instructions.
• If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call
the fire department.
C. Use only your hand to push in control knob.
Never use tools. If the knob will not push
in or slide by hand, donʼt try to repair it,
call a qualified service technician. Force
or attempted repair may result in a fire or
explosion.
