PLACEMENT OF LOOSE EMBERS
CAUTION: Do not place any loose embers around
pilot assembly.
Two bags of loose embers are provided with this unit. For this in-
stallation use the embers that are approximately 1" square in size. If
needed, larger embers can be broken to size. These embers aid in
concealing the burner pan, directing flames through the ember bed,
quiet operation of the unit and gives a natural random flame pattern.
Place embers as follows:
1. Place embers around center ember bed or ember pod.
2. Place individual embers on their edge (not flat) along the top of
burner pan. This aids in directing flames from the burner through
ember bed.
Note: Too many embers or embers placed flat along burner pan
can suppress the flames.
3. When unit is lit, check flames for random appearance and ember
bed glowing red-orange in color (see Burner Flame Pattern, page
13). If this is not happening, either add, remove or reposition loose
embers. IMPORTANT: Turn unit off and let cool before reposition-
ing loose embers.
