•Embers CANNOT be placed directly over ports. Care should be taken not to cover the lighting trail of ports (from back to front).

•When placing Glowing Embers® onto the burner care should be taken so that the ports are not covered. Place the dime-size ember pieces just in front of the port trail, but not on or in between the ports. Failure to follow this procedure will likely cause lighting and sooting problems.

•Place Mystic Embers on areas of base refractory away from port holes. Use this material to give the appliance a realistic ash bed.

•Save the remaining ember materials for use during appliance servicing. The embers provided should be enough for 3 to 5 applications.
