OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS/FLAME APPEARANCE

Flames from the pilot (rear right back side of the pan burner) as
well as the main flame should be visually checked as the log set
is installed.
In normal operation at full rate after 10 to 15 minutes, the flame
appearance should be sets of yellow flames.
NOTE: All flames will be random by design, flame height will
go up and down.
Glowing embers (rock wool) can cover the pan burner in between
the front and middle logs, but very little is necessary to cover this
area. Excess ember material causes the yellow flame to become
orange and stringy. Apply just enough to obtain slow glow and a
gold yellow flame.
Avoid any drafts that alter burner flame patterns. Do not allow
fans to blow directly into fireplace. Do not place a blower inside
the burner area of the firebox. Ceiling fans may create drafts that
alter flame patterns. Sooting and improper burning will result.
Millivolt Control has four (4) positions
Off – All gas to set is completely off at the valve.
Pilot – Valve position to light/maintain the standing
pilot.
Low – Minimum gas rate - pleasing yellow flames -
glowing embers.
High – Maximum gas rate - pleasing yellow flames -
glowing embers.

THERMOSTAT OPERATION

During manufacturing, fabricating and shipping, various
components of this appliance are treated with certain oils, films or
bonding agents. These chemicals are not harmful, but may produce
annoying smoke and smells as they are burned off during the initial
operation of the appliance, possibly causing headaches or eye or
lung irritation. This is a normal and temporary occurrence.
The initial break-in operation should last 2-3 hours with the burner
at the highest setting. Provide maximum ventilation by opening
windows or doors to allow odors to dissipate. Any odors remaining
after this initial break-in will be slight and will disappear with
continued use.
Ignition – Piezo Ignitor allows lighting of the pilot without
matches.
Pilot – All gas log heaters are designed with safety pilot
systems that will shut down when the level of
oxygen available in the room is low. The pilot will
only relight when adequate fresh air is available.
Thermo – All millivolt logs are fitted with a thermo generator
to provide millivolt power to activate switches,
Generator
remote controls or thermostats.
