WARNING
Do not use this appliance or any part that has
been under water. Immediately call a qualified
service technician to inspect the appliance and
to replace any part of the control system and
any gas control which has been under water.
A properly sized, unobstructed chimney will normally vent all fumes and products of combustion. Any
odor or smoke detected in the room is an indication that the flue is not properly removing the combus-
tion products. Turn off the gas supply valve immediately! The cause of the venting problem must be
discovered and corrected before using this gas log set. Disregarding this warning can cause illness as
well as soot damage to your fireplace, room and furnishings.
Young children are not allowed to operate this unit and must be supervised when they are in the same
room as the appliance.
Fireplace damper MUST be locked fully open when operating the gas log set.
If the fireplace has glass doors, operate gas log set only with doors fully opened. The fireplace screen
must be in place when the appliance is operating and, unless other provisions for combustion air are
provided, the screen shall have an opening(s) for introduction of combustion air.
The log set and its individual shut-off valve MUST be isolated from the gas supply piping system by
closing its individual shut-off valve during any pressure testing of gas supply at test pressures equal to
or less than 1/2 psig.
The log set and its individual shut-off valve MUST be disconnected from the gas supply piping system
during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig.
