NEVER LEAVE CHILDREN UNATTENDED
1.
WHEN THERE IS A FIRE BURNING IN
THE FIREPLACE.
2. When burning wood, use SOLID NATURAL
DRY WELL-SEASONED WOOD ONLY. Hard-
woods are recommended (soft woods tend
to burn very quickly).
• DO NOT burn treated wood, charcoal, coal,
trash, driftwood, woods dipped in tar, Christ-
mas tree greens, pitch, pine tar, creosote,
chemical chimney cleaners, fl ame colorants,
polystyrene packaging, wood products with
synthetic binders (i.e. plywood). Plywood,
lumber and other misc. materials can produce
abnormally high temperatures, sputtering and
smoking fi res and may contain hazardous
chemicals to treat insects and fungus.
• When using newspapers to start a wood fi re,
remove (and do not burn) the colored comic
or ad sections. The colored inks contain lead
and can produce toxic gases.
• If Artifi cial Logs are burned it is required that
the logs are UL safety listed (see labeling or
documention provided with logs). Read and
follow the log manufacturer's instructions. Do
not treat artifi cial logs (made from sawdust
and wax) the same way you treat real natural
wood logs. Use only one at a time.
• IMPORTANT: Burning unapproved fuels can
produce excessive temperatures, beyond
the design capabilities of the fi replace and
may produce excess sparks or may contain
hazardous chemicals. Burning unapproved
fuels can result in a chimney fi re, a house fi re,
personal injury, death or loss of property.
3. NEVER use gasoline, gasoline-type lantern
fuel, kerosene, charcoal lighter fl uid, NAPH-
THA, ENGINE OIL or similar liquids to start
or "freshen up" a fi re in this fi replace. Keep
any fl ammable liquids a safe distance from
the fi replace.
4. Keep the chimney damper open while any
fi re or smoldering embers are present .
5. Use care when selecting window treatments
for windows located near the fi replace. Avoid
using combustible fl owing window treatments
such as curtains on nearby windows that are
of suffi cient length to be blown in front of an
open fl ame when the window is opened.
6. With the fi re burning, close the protective
mesh screens to keep sparks and embers
INSIDE the fi rebox. Closed screens prevent
fi re, sparks and embers from popping out of
the fi rebox while a fi re is burning. Pull screens
back when adding wood to the fi rebox.
NOTE: DIAGRAMS & ILLUSTRATIONS ARE NOT TO SCALE.
7. Keep any combustible furniture or decora-
tive pillows at least 60" (1524 mm) from the
fi replace opening.
8. Never leave your fi replace unattended while
it is burning.
9. Be careful adding wood fuel to the fi re or
handling fi replace tools such as shovels,
tongs or pokers.
10. Never modify or alter your fi replace system
in any way. To do so may create a potential
fi re hazard and void the Limited Warranty.
11. The bottom refractory can be cracked by
excessive abuse such as tossing heavy logs
onto the grate or gouging with fi replace tools.
Exercise caution when adding wood to your
fi replace.
12. Fireplace Inserts - Contact your dealer or
distributor for a list of Lennox fi replace
inserts approved for installation into your
fi replace. DO NOT install a fi replace insert
from any another manufacturer.
13. If you are using your fi replace as a "decora-
tive appliance," such as with a permanently
installed gas log set, the fi replace damper
must be permanently fi xed in the open posi-
tion. Listed "vent-free" gas log sets may be
used with the damper closed.
14. If this unit is installed indoors, always ensure
that an adequate supply of replacement com-
bustion air from the outside of the house is
accessible to the fi re to support normal com-
bustion. Fireplaces consume large volumes
of air during the normal combustion process.
In the event the home is tightly sealed with
modern energy effi cient features, the optional
combustion air kit may not provide all the
air required to support combustion. The
manufacturer is not responsible for any
smoking or related problems that may result
from the lack of adequate combustion air. It
is the responsibility of the builder/contractor
to ensure that adequate combustion air has
been provided for the fi replace.
15. Neither the manufacturer nor the seller
warrants "smoke free" operation nor are
we responsible for inadequate system draft
caused by mechanical systems, general con-
struction conditions, inadequate chimney
heights, adverse wind conditions and/or
unusual environmental factors or conditions
beyond our control.
16.Always ensure that the air inlet to the fi replace
is free from debris and any other obstructions
that can block the entrance of air.
GENERAL INFORMATION
1. The all-steel, multi-wall fi rebox is the heat
center of the system. It is well insulated for
safe clearance to combustibles.
2. The hearth fl oor and sidewalls of the fi rebox
are lined with a brick pattern reinforced
refractory for the look of authenticity and
to provide safety.
