These are direct-vent appliances. They are
designed to operate only when the front glass
enclosure panel is installed. Generally the front
glass enclosure panel should not be removed
except to gain access to the components within
the fi rebox, and the appliance may only be op-
erated without the front glass enclosure panel
in place for very brief periods of time during
appliance checkout and adjustment. Note: The
fl ame appearance will be diminished while the
front glass enclosure panel is removed.
During this appliance checkout and adjust-
ment period, a potential safety hazard exists
- EXERCISE EXTREME CAUTION to prevent
the occurrence of any burn injuries from the
exposed fl ames or hot surfaces. Also note, that
while the front glass enclosure panel (or any of
the panels) is removed, the fl ame appearance
will appear to be smaller than normal.
