UNVENTED (VENT-FREE) GAS LOG HEATER
Note: Home owners generally prefer to
operate their heater with the chimney
damper closed. This will put all the heat
into the room. However, there may be
times you will desire the full flames of the
High heat setting but will find the heat
output excessive. You can open the chim-
ney damper (if you have one) fully or
partially to release some of the heat.
NOTICE: During initial operation of
new heater, burning logs will give
off a paper-burning smell. Orange
flame will also be present. Open
damper or window to vent smell.
This will only last a few hours.

THERMOSTAT
CONTROL OPERATION
(Thermostat-Controlled
Models Only)
The thermostat control knob can be set to
any comfort level between Hi and Lo.
The thermostat will gradually modulate
the heat output and flame height from
higher to lower settings, or pilot, in order
to maintain the comfort level you select.
The ideal comfort setting will vary by
household depending upon the amount
of space to be heated, the output of the
central heating system, etc.
Note: Selecting the Hi setting with the
control knob will cause the burners to
remain fully on, without modulating down
in most cases.
