tested for leaks and the initial
burner operation has been
checked out.
• The size and position of the
log set was engineered to give

and attractive flame pattern.
Any attempt to use a different
log set in the fireplace will void
the warranty and will result
in incomplete combustion,
sooting, and poor flame quality.
• Logs get very hot and will
remain hot up to one hour
after gas supply is turned off.
Handle only when logs are
cool. Turn off all electricity to
the appliance before you install
grate, volcanic stone, embers
and logs.

to burn wood. Any attempt to
do so could cause irreparable
damage to the appliance and
prove hazardous to your safety.
• If logs are not installed
according to the log
installation instructions, flame
impingement and improper
combustion could occur and
result in soot and/or excessive
production of carbon monoxide
(CO), a colorless, odorless,
toxic gas.

do so over notches, indents or nubs. Proper
log placement is critical to prevent sooting.
Logs should be placed in the gaps between
the flame peaks and should be positioned so
they do not impinge the flames.
Step 5. Position the individual logs as shown
in Figures 7, 8, and 9. Logs should be
placed in the order shown. All logs that have
notches to fit over the grate tines should be
positioned with these notches directly against
the grate. Handle logs carefully to prevent
breakage.
Proper log placement is critical to encourage
outstanding flame appearance and prevent
sooting. When positioned properly as shown,
logs will be positioned between flame peaks
and will not impinge any flames.
