OPERATING
FIREPLACE
FOR YOUR SAFETY
READ BEFORE
LIGHTING
WARNING: If you do not fol-
low these instructions exactly, a
fire or explosion may result caus-
ing property damage, personal
injury or loss of life.
A. This appliance has a pilot which lights
automatically when using the sup-
plied wall switch or remote control.
If you have a power outage, the pilot
may be lighted by hand with push-
button piezo ignitor. When lighting
the pilot, the following warnings
must be followed.
B. BEFORE LIGHTING smell all
around the appliance area for gas. Be
sure to smell next to the floor because
some gas is heavier than air and will
settle on the floor.
WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL
GAS
• Do not try to light any appliance.
• Do not touch any electric switch;
do not use any phone in your building.
• Immediately call your gas supplier
from a neighbor’s phone. Follow
the gas supplier’s instructions.
• If you cannot reach your gas sup-
plier, call the fire department.
C. Electric Power Outage Only: Use only
your hand to turn the manual over-
ride handle on the gas control knob.
Never use tools. If the knob will not
turn by hand, don’t try to repair it,
call a qualified service technician or
gas supplier. Force or attempted re-
pair may result in a fire or explosion.
D. Do not use this appliance if any part
has been under water. Immediately
call a qualified service technician
to inspect the appliance and to re-
place any part of the control sys-
tem and any gas control which has
been under water.
NORMAL LIGHTING
INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: You must operate
this heater with the fireplace screen
in place. Make sure fireplace screen
is in place before running heater.
NOTICE: During initial operation
of new heater, burning logs will
give off a paper-burning smell.
Open damper or window to vent
smell. This will only last a few hours.
CAUTION: Do not try to adjust
heating levels by using the equip-
ment shutoff valve.
Figure 51 - Control Locations
1. STOP! Read the safety information,
in column 1.
2. Make sure equipment shutoff valve
is fully open.
3. Wait five (5) minutes to clear out any
gas. Smell for gas around heater and
near floor. If you smell gas, STOP!
Follow “B” in the safety information
on warnings plate. If you don’t smell
gas, go to the next step.
A. Using Supplied Wall Switch
1. Set manual ignition bypass switch on
the control panel to the OFF position
(automatic ignition position).

Note: You may be running this heater
for the first time after connecting to

ing season. If so, the ON/OFF button
may need to be pressed again. This will
allow air to bleed from gas system. If
several attempts to light pilot fail, con-
tact a qualified service person or gas
supplier for repairs. Until repairs are
made, light and operate manually (see
Manual Lighting Instructions for Elec-
tric Power Outage, page 22).

seconds), main burner will automati-
cally light on high flame.
