Mendota DXV-60 Installation & Operating Instructions Manual page 33

13. Main burner should now light IMMEDIATELY and flame should not "lift" off burner. If there is any delay in igni-
tion or if flame is "lifting off" burner, turn off burner and carefully check for proper installation of logs/coals, vent
system and proper pilot flame impingement on burner and thermopile. Logs or coals must not block pilot flame or
main burner flame. Vent system must be leak proof.
DO NOT PROCEED WITH OPERATION UNLESS BURNER "CYCLES" ON/OFF WITHOUT DELAYS!
14. To reduce heat output, turn Hi/Lo Knob counterclockwise to desired temperature (see PAGE 31).
Heat output can be reduced to 29,000 BTUH using the Hi-Lo Control. NEVER "over fire" by increasing BTUH
above nameplate specifications. NEVER turn down (reduce) pilot flame below the minimum 250 millivolts.
15. To reduce the flame and heat down to 9,500 BTUH., use the rocker switch (see step 7) to turn off rear burner.
NOTE: The rear burner is controlled by a 9 Volt DC solenoid valve. One 9 volt cell battery (located behind the
control panel) provides power for this unique feature. Replace with a new high quality battery annually.
16. Open windows for first two hours of operation.
NOTICE: Initial heater start-up will cause some NON TOXIC "off gassing" of adhesives, gasket binders, paint
and other materials. Most nuisance odors will be eliminated after the first two hours of operation; however, slight
amounts may be present during first 24 hours of initial operation. To eliminate all nuisance odors, continuously
operate this fireplace on the HIGH setting for 8 to 12 hours.
SHUT DOWN PROCEDURE:
1. Turn Remote Control or Thermostat to "OFF". Pilot will remain lit for return to normal service.
2. For complete shutdown turn Gas Cock Dial (see PAGE 30) to "OFF".
WARNING: Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls. Wiring errors can cause
improper and dangerous operation. Verify proper operation after servicing.
