NOTE: (Fig. 1)
* When you install your Majestic fireplace in (D) Room di-
vider or (E) Flat on wall corner positions, a minimum of 6" (X)
(153mm) clearance must be maintained from the perpendicular
wall and the outer edge of the trim.
Before installing the gas fireplace insert, consideration
must be given to the functioning needs of the fireplace.
The size of the fireplace cavity, the design of the
chimney for effective venting should be determined. The
availability of the gas supply as well as electricity for the
insert fan must be confirmed.
IMPORTANT:
PLEASE REVIEW THE FOLLOWING CAREFULLY
Remove any plastic from trim parts before turning the
fireplace ON.
It is normal for fireplaces fabricated of steel to give off
some expansion and/or contraction noises during the
start up or cool down cycle. Similar noises are found
with your furnace heat exchanger or car engine.
It is not unusual for your Majestic gas fireplace to give
off some odor the first time it is burned. This is due
to the curing of the paint and any undetected oil from
the manufacturing process.
Please ensure that your room is well ventilated
- open all windows.
It is recommended that you burn your Majestic
fireplace for a least six (6) hours the first time you use
it. If optional fan kit has been installed, place fan in
the "OFF" position during this time.
