Starting the Heater for the First Time

+
Burn the heater at a medium setting for approximately one hour the first time. This will cure the
painted surfaces. Fumes from the paint curing and oil burning off the steel may occur. This is
normal. We recommend you open the window to vent the room.
+
Condensation may appear on the glass each time you start the Heater - this is normal.
+
Blue Flames will occur on the heater when it first comes on. After fifteen minutes the flames will turn
a more realistic yellow and orange color.
Certain installations use a remote "wall switch" to turn the heater on and off. If this is the case, leave
the ON/OFF switch "ON".

Turning the Heater On and Off

After the pilot has been started...
Use this switch to
turn the main burner
on and off manually.
EXTINCTION POPS- It is not uncommon to have a small "pop" moments after shutting the heater off
!
Do not place any combustible items on top of or directly in front of the heater, even temporarily. The
optional thermostat may start the heater causing a combustible item to ignite.
If the heater turns on and off frequently while using the thermostat, you may want to adjust the flame
height down until it produces just enough heat needed.

Adjusting the Flame Height

+
Your heater has an adjustable flame to tailor the look and heat output to your specific needs. It is
adjusted by turning the "HI – LO" dial on the gas control valve.
