BURNER FLAME ADJUSTMENT

The air shutter, located at the underside of the main burner (see Figure 48), has been factory preset to the proper air-to-gas ratio which results in an even, clean burning flame across the burner (see Figure 49). If readjustment is necessary, you can restore the proper air-to-gas ratio by loosening the air shutter screw and rotating the air shutter until the proper flame setting is achieved (the shutter's normal setting is “full opened”. Do not forget to retighten the air shutter screws.

OPERATING GUIDELINES AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS

When lit for the first time, the appliance may emit a slight odor for about 16 - 24 hours. This is normal and is due to the “curing” of the logs and the “burn-in” of internal paints and lubricants used in the manufacturing process. Keep compartments, logs, burners, and area surrounding the logs clean by vacuuming or brushing at least twice a year. Temporary removal of the log set may ease the cleaning of the burner and pilot assembly. In cleaning, take care not to alter the pilot or burner location. Be sure appliance is cool before each maintenance session.

CAUTION: The appliance and logs can get very hot - Handle only when cool.

WARNING: Turn off gas and wall switch before servicing appliance. Any safety screen or guard re- moved for servicing the appliance must be replaced prior to operating the appliance.

WARNING: Make certain wires and gas lines are not touching the underside of the firebox.

WARNING: Children and adults should be alerted to the hazards of high surface temperatures, and to stay away from the appliance to avoid burns or cloth- ing ignition. Young children should be carefully super- vised when they are in the same room as the appliance.

WARNING: Have a qualified agency periodically inspect the vent system at the start of each heating season, for any obstruction which may hinder its normal operation. Never obstruct the flow of com- bustion and ventilation air. Keep the front of the appliance clear of all obstacles and materials.
