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 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 manufac-
turing process.
Please ensure that your room is well ventilated-open
all windows.
It is recommended that you burn your ﬁreplace for at least
ten (10) hours the ﬁrst time you use it. If the optional fan
kit has been installed, place the fan switch in the “OFF”
position during this time.
