ISSUE

SOLUTIONS

Condensation on the glass

This is a result of gas combustion and temperature variations. As the appliance warms, this
condensation will disappear.

Blue fl ames

This is a result of normal operation and the fl ames will begin to yellow as the appliance is al-
lowed to burn for 20 to 40 minutes.

Odor from appliance

When fi rst operated, this appliance may release an odor for the fi rst several hours. This is caused
by the curing of the paint and the burning off of any oils remaining from manufacturing. Odor may
also be released from fi nishing materials and adhesives used around the appliance.

Film on the glass

This is a normal result of the curing process of the paint and logs. Glass should be cleaned
within 3 to 4 hours of initial burning to remove deposits left by oils from the manufacturing
process. A non-abrasive cleaner such as gas fi replace glass cleaner may be necessary. See
your dealer.

Metallic noise

Noise is caused by metal expanding and contracting as it heats up and cools down, similar to
the sound produced by a furnace or heating duct. This noise does not affect the operation or
longevity of the appliance.

Is it normal to see the pilot fl ame burn
continually?

In an Intellifi re ignition system it is normal to see the pilot fl ame, but it should turn off when
ON/OFF is turned off.
