Remove the se-
curing screws lo-
cated on either of
the firebox sides
as illustrated.
Remove protective
plastic wrap from
all four panels.
Centre the rear
brick panel
against the back of
the firebox. Place
the left brick panel
against the left
side of the firebox,
ensuring that it
butts up to the rear
panel.
Excess material may be trimmed with a utility knife. Secure
in place using a retainer bracket and 2 of the screws. Re-
peat for the right side.

This is a thermally activated switch, attached to the back of
the unit and extending up into the dilution draft hood, which
senses the change in temperature and shuts down the
gas valve in the event of a severe downdraft of air or a
blocked or disconnected vent. It acts as a safety shutoff to
prevent a build up of carbon monoxide or an explosion of
unburnt gases during start up. If the flue is blocked or has
no "draw", the spill switch will automatically shut off the
supply of gas within about 5-10 minutes.
TAMPERING WITH THE SWITCH CAN RESULT IN
CARBON MONOXIDE (CO) POISONING AND POS-
SIBLE DEATH.
A check for correct venting action must be made before
the installed insert is left with the customer.
Test after installing the unit into either the GI-700 ZERO
CLEARANCE KIT or a vented noncombustible fireplace in
the following manner:
1. Close all doors and windows in the room / start exhaust
fans in the home / turn fireplace blower off.
2. Set controls to "high" and light the unit.
3. Wait 5 minutes. Light a match and hold it to the spill tube
opening.
4. Venting action is satisfactory if smoke is drawn into the
spill tube. Venting action is unsatisfactory if the flame and
smoke are not drawn into the tube.
5. If venting action is unsatisfactory, turn the unit off, wait
10 minutes and try again. If the smoke or flame is still not
drawn into the spill tube, turn the unit off and check for
adequate fresh air supply, vent blockage or restriction. If
necessary, consult with a qualified inspector.
When shipped, the brick panels range in colour from
white to varying shades of brown. During initial use, the
panels will darken temporarily and emit a slight odour
for a few hours. This is a normal condition that will not
occur again. Simply open a window to sufficiently venti-
late the room. The appearance of the panels will perma-
nently lighten in colour with use.
