PERATION Before You Begin Read this entire manual before you use your new fireplace (especially the section "Safety Precautions" on pages 2 & 3). Failure to follow the instructions may result in property damage, bodily injury, or even death. Location of Controls - See explanation below Blower Knob This knob controls the speed of the internal convection blower that pushes the heated air into the room.
PERATION ONTINUED Starting The Pilot The pilot flame is required to ignite the main burners (it also plays a safety role). It should be left on once lit. It will stay lit unless the gas control valve is turned to "OFF". However, the pilot will go out if the gas is shut off or if the fireplace malfunctions.
PERATION ONTINUED Starting the Fireplace for the First Time + Fumes from the paint curing and oil burning off the steel may occur the first time you start your fireplace. This is normal. We recommend you open the window to vent the room. + Condensation may appear on the glass each time you start the fireplace - this is normal.
PERATION ONTINUED Adjusting the Blower Speed + The blower helps transfer the heat from the fireplace into the room. It will not turn on until the fireplace is up to temperature (approximately 10 minutes after starting). See the illustration below for instructions on adjusting the blower speed.
AINTENANCE Yearly Service Procedure Failure to inspect and maintain the fireplace may lead to improper combustion and a potentially dangerous situation. We recommend the following procedures be done by a qualified technician. Check the pilot flame. It should engulf approximately 3/8" of the top of the thermopile and engulf the top of the thermocouple (see illustration below).
ROUBLESHOOTING Problem: Possible Cause: Don't Call for Service Until You: Pilot Will Not Light A gas shut off valve is turned off Check all gas shut off valves See "Starting the Pilot Light" Step C The gas control knob isn't turned to "PILOT" See "Starting the Pilot Light"...
ROUBLESHOOTING ONTINUED How this Fireplace Works This fireplace was designed with safety as the primary concern. Many of the components inside this fireplace are for safety purposes. Therefore, only certified gas service technicians should service this fireplace. What Turns the Main Burners On and Off This fireplace uses a millivolt system to control its operation (a millivolt is a very small amount of electricity).
