4.Grate
The factory installed integral grate must be used to hold the logs from falling out of an open fireplace and to allow air to pass between the burning logs. It is important to keep the fire off the hearth and to allow the ashes to collect beneath the fire, thereby forming a layer of additional heat protection.
5.Firescreen
A firescreen is always provided to control sparks. It must be closed whenever the fireplace is in use. Glass doors or firescreens must not be used to hold burning material inside the fireplace. Only those glass doors specifically tested and listed for use with the specific fireplace model should be used. Screens should be closed when the glass doors are closed.
CAUTION:
When left closed while burning your fireplace, firescreens and glass doors will be HOT.
Handle with care!
WARNING!
Do not store fuel within the clearances to com- bustibles, or in the space required for refueling and ash removal. See maintenance instructions, “Clear Space Near the Fireplace”.
