OPERATION
BEFORE LIGHTING
1) Do not use this appliance if any part has been under water. Immediately call a qualified
service technician to inspect the appliance and to replace any part of the control system and
any gas control which has been under water.
2) Make sure that there are no obstructions in the air intake or venting system.
3) Clear the immediate area of combustible materials, gasoline, and other flammable liquids
and vapours.
4) Make sure that the gas log is in its proper place.
THE FIRST FIRE:
During the first few hours of operation the appliance will release an odor. This is caused by the
burning off of residual oils used in the manufacturing process and by the curing of the high heat
paint. The ceramic glass window may require cleaning after this initial "burn in." Please read
the instructions on cleaning in the MAINTENANCE section before doing so.
The optional gold plated items must be absolutely clean before you light each fire. The acid
from your fingerprints may permanently etch the gold plating.
If the protective packaging that accompanied the gas log is still in place, follow the instructions
in the LOG PLACEMENT section.
LIGHTING PROCEDURE
WARNING: If you do not follow these lighting instructions exactly, a fire or explosion may
result causing property damage, personal injury, or loss of life.
