This is a result of gas combustion and temperature variations. As the fireplace warms, this
condensation will disappear.
This is a result of normal operation and the flames will begin to yellow as the fireplace is al-
lowed to burn for 20 to 40 minutes.
When first operated, this fireplace may release an odor for the first several hours. This is caused
by the curing of the paint and the burning off of any oils remaining from manufacturing. Odor
may also be released from finishing materials and adhesives used around the fireplace. These
circumstances may require additional curing related to the installation environment.
This is a normal result of the curing process of the paint and logs. Glass should be cleaned
within 3 to 4 hours of initial burning to remove deposits left by oils from the manufacturing
process. A non-abrasive cleaner such as gas fireplace glass cleaner may be necessary. See
your dealer.
Noise is caused by metal expanding and contracting as it heats up and cools down, similar to
the sound produced by a furnace or heating duct. This noise does not affect the operation or
longevity of the fireplace.
In an intermittent pilot ignition system (IPI), the pilot flame should turn off when appliance is
turned off. Some optional control systems available with IPI models may allow pilot flame to
remain lit.
This appliance can be operated on battery power in the event of a power outage. To access

Section 3 for more details.
