OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
LIGHTING PILOT FOR THE FIRST TIME
APPROVED LEAK TESTING METHOD
You may check for gas leaks with the following
methods only:
• Soap and water solution
• An approved leak testing spray
• Electronic sniffer
WARNING
Never check for gas leak with open flame!
Check for gas leaks in each of the following locations:
• Pipe from the gas supply line connection to the gas valve
• Burner connections
• Pilot
• Each joint or connection
The control has an interlock device that does not allow the lighting of the fireplace up to the moment the safety
device of the flame has not interrupted the gas flow. After that period of time (when the magnet is closed), it is
possible to start the lighting operation.
The gas control knob is designed to be operated by hand. DO NOT use any tools during this operation. Damaged
knobs may result in serious injury.
1. Depress and turn knob counterclockwise
to pilot position.
2. Depress fully and hold pilot gas knob. Depress
piezo igniter as many times as needed to ignite pilot.
Keep knob fully depressed for a few seconds.
Release and check that pilot continues to
burn.
If the pilot does not stay lit, repeat steps 1 and 2.
If the knob does not "pop" out to its original position when released,
turn off gas to appliance and contact qualified service technician.
