use tools. If the knob will not turn by hand, do not try to
repair it. Call a qualified service technician. Force or
attempted repair may result in a fire or explosion.
D. Do not use this fireplace if any part has been under
water. Immediately call a qualified service technician to
inspect the fireplace and replace any part of the control
system and any gas control which has been under wa-
ter.
GAS KNOB
When lit for the first time, the fireplace will emit a slight
odour for a few hours. This is a normal temporary condi-
tion caused by the curing of the logs and the "burn-in" of
internal paints and lubricants used in the manufacturing
process and will not occur again. Simply open a window to
sufficiently ventilate the room.
After extended periods of non-operation such as following
a vacation or a warm weather season, the fireplace may
emit a slight odour for a few hours. This is caused by dust
particles in the heat exchanger burning off. Open a window
to sufficiently ventilate the room.
PURGE ALL GAS LINES WITH THE GLASS DOOR OF
THE FIREPLACE OPEN. ASSURE THAT A CONTINU-
OUS GAS FLOW IS AT THE BURNER BEFORE
CLOSING THE DOOR.
