INSTALL VOLCANIC STONE, GLOWING
EMBERS AND LOGS
NOTE: Turn off all electricity to the appliance
before you install volcanic stone, embers and
logs.
WARNING
• DO NOT attempt to install the logs
until the appliance installation
has been completed, the gas
line connected and tested for
leaks and the initial burner
operation has been checked out.
• The size and position of the log
set was engineered to give the
appliance a safe, reliable 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, vermiculite, embers and
logs.
• This appliance is not designed
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.

Step 1. Remove front face assembly, hood,
and appliance front door (see Removing Glass
Encloslure panel on Page 45.
Step 2. Install decorative volcanic stone -
Sprinkle the decorative volcanic stone in a pleas-
ing pattern. The volcanic stone should be placed
directly on top of the firebox bottom, along the
front and to the back at the right and left sides of
the burner. Position any optional ceramic fiber
liners before placing the stone. Logs should be
positioned after the volcanic stone.
NOTE: This appliance is provided with enough
Glowing Embers for several applications, do
not feel compelled to use all that is in a new
bag. For best glowing effect, replace the ember
material annually. Replacement Glowing Em-
bers are available (Catalog Number 88L53).
Step 3.
(Rockwool) into pieces about the size of a
quarter (Figure 72). Keep the pieces fluffed
up, not matted. Distribute these pieces over
the front surface of the burner, as shown in
Figure 71. Do not use more than is neces-
sary. When properly positioned, the Glowing
Embers will cover approximately 65% of the
front burner and with no appreciable gaps or
openings. Ensure that the main burner ports
remain uncovered by the ember material.

Step 4. Placement of Logs -
All top logs that rest on lower logs, 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
Figure 73. 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.
