First Fire
When lit for the first time, the appliance will emit a slight
odour for a couple of hours. This is due to the curing of paints,
sealants and lubricants used in the manufacturing process.
This condition is temporary. Open doors and windows to
ventilate area. Smoke and fumes caused by the curing process
may cause discomfort to some individuals.
Operation
The Mirage Gas Insert comes equipped with an "ON-OFF"
Rocker switch. This switch is conveniently located near the
upper right hand corner of the surround
Once a pilot light has been established, and the gas control
knob turned to the "ON" position, the burner may be turned
on or off simply with the switch. An optional wall thermostat
may be installed to operate the burner automatically.

Manual HI-LO Burner Control Knob
Manual HI-LO Flame Adjustment: (Fig #22)
The HI-LO burner control knob can be rotated in both
directions, providing infinite control of gas flow rate to the
burner and therefore greater comfort control. The HI setting
provides a maximum gas input, and rotating the knob clock-
wise toward the LO setting will reduce the gas input to a
minimum setting.
Wall Thermostat (optional):
Set the wall thermostat to a comfortable temperature. Turn
the HI-LO burner control knob to a desired setting. As heat
is required, the Mirage Gas Insert will turn on or off automati-
cally, as needed.
Extend Shutdown:
To shutdown the appliance including the pilot, partially
depress and turn gas control knob clockwise past "PILOT" to
the "OFF" position. DO NOT FORCE.
NOTE: The SIT control has an interlock device which does
not allow the pilot to be lit when the appliance is at operating
temperature. Let the appliance cool down (approx. 60 sec.)
before attempting to relight the pilot. DO NOT use force to
rotate the control knob.
Primary Air Adjustment
This appliance is provided with primary air adjustment,
which affects flame heights and flame quality of the front and
back burners by controlling the air shutter opening. This
adjustment is preset at the factory for the best flame appear-
ance for most installations. However, adjustment is available
to compensate for varying field conditions, such as vent
system height or altitude, that may affect flame appearance.
The adjustment rods are accessible just to the left of the valve,
in behind the bottom louver, as shown in Fig. #23. Separate
front and back adjusters are provided; the left rod adjusts the
rear burner and the right adjuster controls the front burner.
Pulling the left rod forward closes the rear shutter and
increases the rear flame height. Pushing the right rod upwards
closes the front shutter and increases flame height of the front
burner.
Fig. # 23
To Adjust: (See Fig. # 23)
1) Fold down bottom front louver.
2) Pull or push on adjustment rods to adjust flame.
3) Close bottom front louver.
Caution: Proper air shutter setting is a must. The flame
should not impinge on the top of the firebox. It should
NEVER be set to create sooting on internal parts and glass.
Open air shutter gradually until sooting stops.
