Before lighting the fireplace, be sure to do the
following:
Review safety warnings and cautions
• Read the
Safety and Warning Information section at
the beginning of this Installers Guide.
Double-check for gas leaks
• Before lighting the fireplace, double-check the unit for
possible gas leaks.
Double-check flue terminations and front grilles for
obstructions.
• Before lighting the fireplace, double-check the unit for
possible obstructions that could be blocking the flue
terminations or the front grilles.
Double-check for faulty components
• Any component that is found to be faulty
MUST BE
replaced with an approved component. Tampering with
the fireplace components is
DANGEROUS and voids
all warranties.
A small amount of air will be in the gas supply lines.
When first lighting the fireplace, it will take a few minutes
for the lines to purge themselves of this air. Once the
purging is complete, the fireplace will light and will operate
normally.
Subsequent lightings of the fireplace will not require this
purging of air from the gas supply lines,
unless the gas
valve has been turned to the OFF position, in which
case the air would have to be purged.
NOTE: The fireplace should be run for 3 to 4 hours on
the initial start-up. Turn it off and let it cool completely.
Remove and clean the glass. Replace the glass and run
the fireplace for an additional 8 hours. This will help to
cure the products used in the paint and logs.
