Operation/Care Of Your Appliance - Firecraft Superior Standard BBV-42RMN Homeowner's Care And Operation Instructions Manual

Millivolt appliances may be fitted at time of
manufacture with either a Honeywell millivolt
gas control valve or as SIT millivolt gas control
valve. Both valves have been tested with and
approved for use with these appliances and
are listed accordingly.
Test gage connections are provided on the
front of the millivolt gas control valve (identi-
fied A for the manifold side and E for inlet
pressure for SIT equipped appliances, or IN
and OUT for Honeywell equipped appliances).
A ¹⁄₈" NPT test gage connection is provided on
the electronic gas control valve adjacent to the
outlet to the main burner.
Minimum inlet gas pressure to the appliance is
5.0 inches water column (9.5 MmHg) for natu-
ral gas and 11 inches water column (20.55
MmHg) for propane for the purpose of input
adjustment.
Maximum inlet gas supply pressure to the
appliance is 10.5 inches water column (19.95
MmHg) for natural gas and 13.0 inches water
column (24.25 MmHg) for propane.
The appliance must be isolated from the gas
supply piping system (by closing its individual
manual shut-off valve) during any pressure
testing of the gas supply piping system at test
pressures equal to or less than ¹⁄₂ psig (3.5
kPa).
The appliance and its individual shut-off valve
must be disconnected from the gas supply
piping system during any pressure testing of
that system at pressures in excess of ¹⁄₂ psig
(3.5 kPa).
These appliances must not be connected to a
chimney or flue serving a separate solid fuel
burning appliance.
WARNING: FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH
THE INSTALLATION AND OPERATING IN-
STRUCTIONS PROVIDED IN THIS DOCU-
MENT WILL RESULT IN AN IMPROPERLY
INSTALLED AND OPERATING APPLI-
ANCE, VOIDING ITS WARRANTY. ANY
CHANGE TO THIS APPLIANCE AND/OR
ITS OPERATING CONTROLS IS DANGER-
OUS. IMPROPER INSTALLATION OR USE
OF THIS APPLIANCE CAN CAUSE SERI-
OUS INJURY OR DEATH FORM FIRE,
BURNS, EXPLOSION OR CARBON MON-
OXIDE POISONING.
Carbon Monoxide Poisoning: Early signs of
carbon monoxide poisoning are similar to
the flu with headaches, dizziness and/or nau-
sea. If you have these signs, obtain fresh air
immediately. Turn off the gas supply to the
appliance and have it serviced by a qualified
professional, as it may not be operating
correctly.
WARNING: B-VENT APPLIANCES ARE NOT
DESIGNED TO OPERATE IN NEGATIVELY
PRESSURED ENVIRONMENTS (PRESSURE
WITHIN THE HOME IS LESS THAN PRES-
SURES OUTSIDE). SIGNIFICANT NEGA-
TIVELY PRESSURED ENVIRONMENTS
CAUSED BY WEATHER, HOME DESIGN,
OR OTHER DEVICES MAY IMPACT THE
OPERATION OF THESE APPLIANCES.
NEGATIVE PRESSURES MAY RESULT IN
POOR FLAME APPEARANCE, SOOTING,
DAMAGE TO PROPERTY AND/OR SEVERE
PERSONAL INJURY. DO NOT OPERATE
THESE APPLIANCES IN NEGATIVELY PRES-
SURED ENVIRONMENTS.
WARNING: CHILDREN AND ADULTS
SHOULD BE ALERTED TO THE HAZARDS
OF HIGH SURFACE TEMPERATURES. USE
CAUTION AROUND THE APPLIANCE TO
AVOID BURNS OR CLOTHING IGNITION.
YOUNG CHILDREN SHOULD BE CARE-
FULLY SUPERVISED WHEN THEY ARE IN
THE SAME ROOM AS THE APPLIANCE.
WARNING: DO NOT PLACE CLOTHING
OR OTHER FLAMMABLE MATERIALS
ON OR NEAR THIS APPLIANCE.

OPERATION AND CARE OF YOUR
APPLIANCE
1. Appliance operation may be controlled
through a remotely located optional wall switch.
Separate switches may provide independent
control for the remote controlled fireplace op-
eration (optional equipment). In lieu of remote
or remote wall switch operation, the appliance
must be operated directly through the controls
located on the front of the valve located within
the control compartment under the removable
refractory access panel, Figure 1 .

Operation of millivolt and electronic gas con-
trol systems are different. Before lighting and
operating your appliance determine if you have
a millivolt or electronic appliance. Refer to
Figure 1 to access the gas control compart-
ment below the lower refractory panel. Milli-
volt appliances will be fitted with one of the two
gas control valves shown in Figure 2 . Appli-
ances with electronic systems will be fitted
with the electronic valve shown in Figure 3 .
Familiarize yourself with the differing controls
for the valve your appliance uses.
