CHECKING THE BURNER FLAME
In normal operation at full rate after 15 minutes, the following flame appearances should be observed:
The rear flames above and behind log #2, and in front of log #3, may be yellow. The flames should extend approximately 2" - 4" above log #2. Refer to Figure 27.

Log #4
Front Log
Figure 27 - Correct Appearance of Rear Flames
The front flames are blue, becoming yellowish as they hit the bumps on the face of log #2. The face of log #2 will glow a bright reddish orange when the heater is in operation.
NOTE: When the log set is turned on for the very first time, the burner flames in front of log #2 will appear an opaque orange on the surface of log #2. After two or three hours of continuous operation on the highest setting, the normal bright orange/red glow should be visible.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Avoid any drafts that alter burner flame patterns. Do not allow fans to blow directly into the fireplace. Do not place a blower inside the burn area of the firebox. Ceiling fans may create drafts that alter flame patterns. Sooting and improper burning will result.
