First Fire
The FIRST FIRE in your fireplace is part of the paint
curing process. To ensure the paint is properly cured,
it is recommended you burn your fireplace for at
least four (4) hours the first time.
When first operated, the unit will release an odour
caused by the curing of the paint and the burning
off of any oils remaining from manufacturing. Smoke
detectors in the house may go off at this time. Open
a few windows to ventilate the room for a couple of
hours. The glass may require cleaning.
NOTE: When the glass is cold and the appli-
ance is lit, it may cause condensation
and fog the glass. This condensation
is normal and will disappear in a few
minutes as the glass heats up.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CLEAN THE GLASS
WHILE IT IS STILL HOT!
DO NOT BURN THE UNIT WITHOUT THE
GLASS IN PLACE.
During the first few fires, a white film may develop
on the glass front as part of the curing process.
The glass should be cleaned after the unit has
cooled down or the film will bake on and become
very difficult to remove. Use a non-abrasive
cleaner and DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CLEAN THE
GLASS WHILE IT IS HOT.
Normal Operating Sounds Of
Gas Appliances
It is possible that you will hear some sounds from
your gas appliance. This is perfectly normal due to
the fact that there are various gauges and types of
steel used within your appliance. Listed below are
some examples. All are normal operating sounds
and should not be considered as defects in your
appliance.
Burner Tray:
The burner tray is positioned directly under the
burner tube(s) media and logs and is made of a
different gauge material from the rest of the firebox
and body. Therefore, the varying thicknesses of
steel will expand and contract at slightly different
rates which can cause "ticking" and "cracking"
sounds. You should also be aware that as there
are temperature changes within the unit these
sounds will likely re-occur. Again, this is normal
for steel fireboxes.
Pilot Flame:
While the pilot flame is on it can make a very slight
"whisper" sound.
Gas Control Valve:
As the gas control valve turns ON and OFF, a
dull clicking sound may be audible, this is normal
operation of a gas regulator or valve.
Unit Body/Firebox:
Different types and thicknesses of steel will expand
and contract at different rates resulting in some
"cracking" and "ticking" sounds will be heard
throughout the cycling process.

Non Power Vent/Power Vent
Switch
1. To access the switch, remove the screw and pull
the cover off as shown below.
The outer barrier glass and outer panels need
to be removed to gain access.
2. The switch position must be as follows:
Power vent model (O)
Non power vent model (I)
This switch would have been positioned at
time of install and should never have to be
moved from one position to another. This
switch is hidden to avoid the home owner
having the switch in wrong position.
