GD36 THERMOSTATIC SENSOR CONTROL

This optional kit is meant to be used only in conjunction with the GD65
Fan Kit, shown above, which may be
ordered from your Wolf Steel / Napo-
leon® dealer.
With the thermostatic sensor option,
the fan, when turned on, becomes
thermally activated, and will automati-
cally run approximately 15-30 minutes
after the fi replace has been lit and for
approximately 30-45 minutes after the
fi replace has been turned off.
Use of the fan increases the output of heat.
OPERATION / MAINTENANCE
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
When lit for the fi rst time, the fi replace will emit a slight odour for a few
hours. This is a normal temporary condition caused by the curing of
the logs and the "burn-in" of internal paints and lubricants used in the
manufacturing process and will not occur again.
FOR YOUR SAFETY READ BEFORE LIGHTING:
A. This fi replace is equipped with a pilot which must be lit by hand
while following these instructions exactly.
B. Before operating smell all around the fi replace area for gas and
next to the fl oor because some gas is heavier than air and will
settle on the fl oor
C. Use only your hand to turn the gas control knob. Never use tools.
If the knob will not turn by hand, do not try to repair it. Call a quali-
fi ed service technician. Force or attempted repair may result in a
fi re or explosion.
D. Do not use this fi replace if any part has been under water. Imme-
diately call a qualifi ed service technician to inspect the fi replace
and replace any part of the control system and any gas control
which has been under water.
WARNING: The gas valve has an interlock device which will not al-
low the pilot burner to be lit until the thermocouple has cooled. Allow
approximately 60 seconds for the thermocouple to cool.
When lighting and re-lighting, the gas knob cannot be turned from pilot
to off unless the knob is depressed slightly.
1. Stop! Read the above safety information on this label.
2. Turn off all electric power to the fi replace.
3. Turn the gas knob clockwise
4. Wait fi ve (5) minutes to clear out any gas. If you smell gas includ-
ing near the fl oor. Stop! Follow "B" in the above safety information
on this label. If you don't smell gas go the next step.
1. Turn off all electric power to the fi replace if service is to be per-
formed.
Turn off the gas and electrical power before servicing the
fireplace.
CAUTION: Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing
controls. Wiring errors can cause improper and dangerous operation.
Verify proper operation after servicing. This fi replace and its venting
system should be inspected before use and at least annually by a
qualifi ed service person. The fi replace area must be kept clear and
free of combustible materials, gasoline or other fl ammable vapours
and liquids. The fl ow of combustion and ventilation air must not be
obstructed.
1. In order to properly clean the burner and pilot assembly, remove
the logs to expose both assemblies.
2. Keep the control compartment, logs, burner, air shutter opening
and the area surrounding the logs clean by vacuuming or brushing,
at least once a year.
Unplug the power cord from the receptacle. Connect all wires as
shown.
Attach and secure the sen-
sor assembly bracket to
the securing stud located
next to the receptacle/
junction box at the bottom
left of the unit using the
lock washer and wing nut.
Ensure that the thermodisc

touches the fi rebox wall.
Plug the power cord back into the receptacle.
When installed, ensure that any excess wire is contained, preventing it
from making contact with moving or hot objects.
After extended periods of non-operation such as following a vacation or
a warm weather season, the fi replace may emit a slight odour for a few
hours. This is caused by dust particles in the heat exchanger burning
off. In both cases, open a window to suffi ciently ventilate the room.
Purge the gas line with the glass door removed. Assure that a con-
tinuous gas flow is at the burner before re-installing the door.
• Turn off all gas to the fi replace.
• Open windows.
• Do not try to light any appliance.
• Do not touch any electric switch; do not use
• Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbour's
• If you cannot reach
LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS

MAINTENANCE
3. Check to see that all burner ports are burning. Clean out any of the
ports which may not be burning or are not burning properly.
4. Check to see that the pilot fl ame is large enough to engulf the
thermocouple and thermopile and reaches toward the burner with
the third jet.
5. Replace the cleaned logs.
6. Check to see that the main burner ignites completely on all open ings
when the gas knob for the burner is turned on. A 5 to 10 second total
light-up period is satisfactory. If ignition takes longer, consult your
Napoleon® dealer / distributor.
7. Check that the gasketing on the sides, top and bottom of the door
is not broken or missing. Replace if necessary.
