Finalizing the Installation

Steps for Finalizing the Installation

1. Remove the glass (see page 41).
N O T E : If using propane (LP) convert the appliance prior to installing the logs.
2. We recommend you purge the gas line at this time (with the glass removed). This allows gas to be
detected once it enters the firebox, ensuring gas does not build up.
3. Install the logs (see page 43).
4. Turn on the gas to the fireplace. Turn on gas to the heater. Leak test all gas joints prior to starting the
appliance. Start the pilot.

Starting the Pilot Flame

WARNING : When lighting or re-lighting the pilot, the glass must be removed (see
page 4 1 ) .
a Remove the glass (see page 41 for details).
b Push the gas control knob in slightly and turn it to the "OFF" position. The knob will not turn from
"ON" to "OFF" unless the knob is depressed slightly. Wait five minutes to let any gas that may have
accumulated inside the firebox escape. If you smell leaking gas, follow the directions on the cover "IF
YOU SMELL GAS".
c Turn the gas control knob to the "PILOT" position and press the knob in, this will allow gas to flow to
the pilot light. Press the button on the pilot igniter repeatedly until you see the pilot light.
WARNING: If the pilot does not light after 15 seconds, release the knob and call
your dealer for service. Do not attempt to light pilot until service has
been performed.
N O T E :
You may wish to remove the log set to gain a better view of the pilot (see page 43).
d Keep the gas control knob depressed for 30 seconds once it is lit.
e Release the gas control knob. If the pilot goes out, repeat step C. If the pilot refuses to stay lit, call
your dealer for service. With the pilot lit, proceed to step "f".
f Replace the glass.
g Turn the gas control knob counter-clockwise to "ON". The pilot is now lit and the heater can be turned
on and off.
5. Check the pilot flame following the directions below.

Pilot Flame Inspection

The pilot flame should look like the illustration below. Adjust the pilot flame if necessary.
To adjust the pilot flame, turn this screw. Clockwise
lowers the flame while counter-clockwise raises it.
6. Start the main burner (the main burner circuit is detailed on page 22). Leak test all gas joints again.
