Turn the ﬁ replace up and down using the remote control to conﬁ rm

that the full range of inputs is achieved.

Light the ﬁ re and allow to warm up for 10–15 minutes to evaluate

the ﬂ ame picture.

The burner is equipped with an adjustable air

shutter to control primary aeration. See ﬁ gures below. The shutter is

factory-set at an aeration gap, which will give optimum performance

for the vast majority of installations. In a few unusual installations,

ﬂ ame picture may be improved by adjusting the aeration. The need

for adjustment should be determined only by operating the appliance

with the ceramic fuel effects and window installed.

Increasing aeration will cause the ﬂ ame to appear more

transparent and blue making the ceramic fuel effects

glow more.

Decreasing aeration will cause the ﬂ ames to appear

more yellow or orange making the fuel effects glow less.

Too little aeration may result in black carbon

forming and dropping into the ﬁ rebox.

Important: The fret retainer brackets are designed to

maintain the required space in front of the window to

allow the window to move and relieve during a hard

start. It is very important to ensure this area in front

of the window is kept clear at all times.

Fret Retainer Brackets Installation

Screw 2 thumbscrews into sides of each support

leg if not done previously when support legs were

installed. Fit the slotted holes in the fret retainers over

the thumbscrews, push fret retainers downwards and

tighten screws.

Cast Iron Fret Installation

Adjust screw heads on back of fret to the thickness of

the retainer bracket and drop the fret into place while

guiding the screw heads into the slots in the bracket.

Clip the ash pan cover onto the fret.
