NOTICE: It is normal for steel appliances to make expansion/
contraction noises as they heat up or cool down. Similar noises
are found with your furnace or car engine.
It is normal for your gas fireplace to give off some odor the first
time it is burned. This is due to the curing of the paint and any
oil from the manufacturing process. If odor becomes offensive,
open windows.
Burn the fireplace for at least six hours the first time you use
it. Keep the fan in the "OFF" mode during this time.
NOTICE: Turn off the gas before servicing appliance.
Have a qualified service person perform the following
(inspections) at the beginning of each heating season:
•
Check Vent System
Inspect the fireplace and venting system before initial use and
at least annually. Inspect the external vent cap on a regular
basis to make sure no debris is interferes with the air flow.
•
Clean Burner and Control Compartment
Keep the control compartment, logs, and burner areas surrounding
the logs clean by vacuuming or brushing at least twice a year.
•

Cleaning the Glass
Clean the glass periodically. We recommend gas fireplace glass
cleaner. During start-up, condensation forms on the inside of the
glass causing lint, dust and other airborne particles to cling to the
glass. Also initial paint curing may deposit a film on the glass. Allow
the fireplace to cool and then clean the glass two or three times with
gas fireplace glass cleaner or a non-abrasive household cleaner
and warm water. After that, clean the glass two or three times during
each heating season or more often if necessary.
Clean glass with cleaner designed for fireplaces.
Do not use Ammonia based or abrasive cleaners on glass.
Do not attempt to clean glass when glass is hot.
Wiring
