Step 9. INSTALL VOLCANIC STONE, GLOWING EMBERS, AND
LOGS
• DO NOT operate this appliance without the
required accessories properly installed:
- floor (log set or contemporary kit), and
- panels (ceramic or porcelain).
• DO NOT attempt to install the logs until the
appliance installation has been completed, the
gas line connected and tested for leaks and the
initial burner operation has been checked out.
• The size and position of the log set was
engineered to give the appliance a safe, reliable
and attractive flame pattern. Any attempt to
use a different log set in the fireplace will
void the warranty and will result in incomplete
combustion, sooting, and poor flame quality.
f i r e - p a r t s . c o m
• Logs get very hot and will remain hot up to one
hour after gas supply is turned off. Handle only
when logs are cool. Turn off all electricity to
the appliance before you install grate, volcanic
stone, embers and logs.
• This appliance is not designed to burn wood. Any
attempt to do so could cause irreparable damage to
the appliance and prove hazardous to your safety.
• If logs are not installed according to the log
installation instructions, flame impingement and
improper combustion could occur and result in soot
and/or excessive production of carbon monoxide
(CO), a colorless, odorless, toxic gas.
NOTE: It is important to ensure proper log placement per the manual
when installing these units. Verify pilot flame is not obstructed. See
Verifying Appliance Operation Page 23.
Step 1. Install the ceramic or porcelain panels per the instructions
provided in kit.
Step 2. Place volcanic stone around the burner (the entire bag of volcanic
stone will NOT be used). DO NOT PLACE VOLCANIC STONE ON
THE BURNER. See Figure 32.
Step 3. Separate the glowing embers (rockwool) into pieces about the
size of a quarter (Figure 33). Keep the pieces fluffed, not matted.
Distribute these pieces over the burner as shown in Figure 34.
Do not use more than is necessary. When properly positioned,
the glowing embers will cover approximately 75% of the burner.
Step 4. Distribute the platinum embers over the burner as desired. Do
not use more than is necessary.
NOTE: Excessive use of embers may result in sooting or poor
flame. This appliance is provided with enough embers for
several applications, do not use all that is in a new bag. For
best glowing effect, replace the ember material annually.
Replacement volcanic stone, glowing embers, and platinum
embers are available.

Step 5. Position the individual logs as shown in Figures 36 through 38.
Logs should be placed in the order shown. Place logs 2 and 3
against the pins on the grate, NOT over them.
Proper log and twig placement is critical to encourage outstand-
ing flame appearance and prevent sooting. When positioned
properly, as shown, twigs will be positioned between flame
peaks and will not impinge any flames.
