D. After Appliance is Lit

Initial Break-in Procedure

When you light your appliance, you may notice that it pro- duces heat which does have an associated odor or smell. If you feel this odor is excessive it may require the initial three to four hour continuous burn on high followed by a second burn up to 12 hours to fully drive off any odor from paint and lubricants used in the manufacturing process. Condensation on the glass is normal.

NOTE: The appliance should be run three to four 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 appliance for an additional 12 hours. This will help to cure the products used in the paint and logs.

During this break-in period it is recommended that some windows in the house be opened for air circulation. This will help avoid setting off smoke detectors, and help eliminate any odors associated with the appliance’s initial burning.

E. Frequently Asked Questions

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 allowed 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. If appliance has not been used for some time, dust can build up and

 

cause an odor.

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 appliance 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.
