OPERATING the FIREPLACE
THE FIRST FIRE
When the fireplace is first heated, an odor may be given off by the hot metal. This is normal and is a result of the 'burn off' of the
lubricants and sealants used when manufacturing the fireplace. We recommend that you open the nearby windows for extra
ventilation and then operate the fireplace for at least four hours.
When the glass is cold, some condensation may appear on the glass after lighting the fireplace. This is normal and the
condensation will disappear as the glass warms.
During this first fire, examine the flame for appearance and quality. Examine the burner media for sooting. The flames should look
like those shown below.
After this burn-off period, turn off the fireplace and let it cool completely to room temperature and clean both sides of the glass
and the interior panels as described in the MAINTENANCE section.
Since it is a metal fireplace, the heat-up and cool-down cycles may produce some noises caused by the expansion and contraction
of these metals. The premium materials and build quality of your fireplace will keep these sounds to a minimum.
