Step 9. INSTALL VOLCANIC STONE,
GLOWING EMBERS AND LOGS
WARNING
• DO NOT attempt to install the
logs until the appliance installa-
tion 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 appli-
ance 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.
• Logs get very hot and will remain
hot up to one hour after gas supply
is turned off. Handle only when
f i r e - p a r t s . c o m
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 accord-
ing to the log installation instruc-
tions, 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: Turn off all electricity to the appliance
before you install volcanic stone, embers
and logs.
Step 1. Remove the appliance front door (see
Removing Glass Encloslure panel on Page 30.
Step 2. Install decorative volcanic stone—
Sprinkle the decorative volcanic stone in a
pleasing pattern. The volcanic stone should
be placed directly on top of the firebox
bottom, along the front and to the back at the
right and left sides of the burner. Position any
optional ceramic fiber liners before placing
the stone. Logs should be positioned after
the volcanic stone.
Note: This appliance is provided with enough
Glowing Embers for several applications,
do not feel compelled to use all that is in a
new bag. For best glowing effect, replace
the ember material annually. Replacement
Glowing Embers are available (Catalog
Number 88L53).

Step 3. Separate the Glowing Ember
(Rockwool) into pieces about the size of a
quarter (Figure 52). Keep the pieces fluffed
up, not matted. Distribute these pieces over
the front surface of the burner, as shown
in Figure 51. Do not use more than is
necessary. When properly positioned, the
Glowing Embers will cover approximately
65% of the front burner and with no
appreciable gaps or openings. Ensure that
the main burner ports remain uncovered by
the ember material.
Step 4. Placement of Logs—All top logs
that rest on lower logs, do so over notches,
indents or nubs. Proper log placement is
critical to prevent sooting. Logs should be
placed in the gaps between the flame peaks
and should be positioned so they do not
impinge the flames.
Step 5. Position the individual logs as shown
in Figure 53. Logs should be placed in the
order shown. All logs that have notches to
fit over the grate tines should be positioned
with these notches directly against the grate.

Handle logs carefully to prevent breakage.
Separate into Quarter
Size (separate) Pieces
Proper log placement is critical to encourage
outstanding flame appearance and prevent
sooting. When positioned properly as shown,
logs will be positioned between flame peaks
and will not impinge any flames. Refer to
Figure 55.
