Vermont Castings, Majestic Products RHEDV Direct Vent Insert
Installation & Operating Instructions
IMPORTANT:
PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING CAREFULLY
It is normal for fireplaces fabricated of steel to give off
some expansion and/or contraction noises during the
start up or cool down cycle. Similar noises are found
with your furnace heat exchanger or car engine.
It is not unusual for your Vermont Castings, Majestic
Products gas fireplace to give off some odor the first
time it is burned. This is due to the curing of the paint
and any undetected oil from the manufacturing process.
Please ensure that your room is well ventilated -
open all windows.
It is recommended that you burn your Vermont
Castings, Majestic Products fireplace for a least six (6)
hours the first time you use it. If optional fan kit has
been installed, place fan in the "OFF" position during
this time.
