Log Installation
1. Remove logs from the packaging.
As with all plastic, these bags are not toys
and should always be kept away from chil-
dren and infants.
2. Place left rear log on rear log support.
Ensure that log is firmly positioned and there is no
side-to-side movement. (Figs. 11 & 12)
3. Carefully place Ember Log between grate and
burner. (Figs. 11 & 12)
4. Place the front of right rear log on the burner and the
back of the log on the rear log support.

the logs are secure. (Fig. 11 & 12)

First Firing
Upon completing the gas line connection, a small
amount of air will be trapped in the line. When first
lighting the unit with pilot light, it will take a few minutes
to purge the trapped air. Once purging is complete, the
pilot and burner will light and operate as indicated in the
instruction manual. Subsequent lightings of the appli-
ance will not require purging.
When lit for the first time, the appliance will emit a slight
odor for an hour or two. This is due to paint and lubri-
cants used in the manufacturing process. After each
lighting, vapor may condense and fog the glass; this
moisture disappears in a few minutes of burning.
Flame Adjustment
For units equipped with Hi/Lo valves, flame adjustment
is accomplished by rotating the Hi/Lo adjustment knob
located near the center of the gas control.

Flame Characteristics
It is important to periodically perform a visual check of
the pilot and the burner flames. Compare them to the il-
lustrations below (Figs. 14, 15, 16). If any of the flames
appear abnormal call a service person.
