FIRE HAZARD

• Facing materials must be properly installed to prevent the risk of fire.
• Make sure that no debris are blocking the cap as a restricted air flow affects gas combustion.
• Close the manual shutoff valve before installing the devices to test valve pressure. These tests must be
performed by a qualified technician.
• Do not store or use gasoline or any other flammable vapors or liquids in the vicinity of the unit.
• High gas intake pressure at valve may cause overheating.
• Check minimum gas pressure intake when other household gas appliances are operating. These verifications
must be performed by a qualified technician.
• Gas accumulation may ignite when purging the line.
• Purge must be performed by a qualified technician.
• When purging gas lines, make sure there are no ignition sources such as sparks or open flames in the same
room as the fireplace.
• The adjustment of the valve is set at the factory. Do not modify.
• Do not connect 110 V wires to the fireplace's valve.
• Never let any fuel or other volatile liquids (gasoline or alcohol) near your fireplace when it is operating.
• Do not obstruct fuel or air inlets in any way.
• Improper wiring will override the safety interlock system, which could cause an explosion.
• If you smell gas, carry out the steps indicated in paragraph 1.1 immediately.
• This unit is equipped with injectors sized specifically for use with natural gas (or propane gas). Do not attempt
to change the injectors in any way; this will cause abnormal operation of the unit and may cause a fire.
