OPERATION BGD36CF & BGD42CF

Purge all gas lines with the glass door of the fireplace removed or opened. Assure that a continuous gas flow is at the burner before installing the door.

When lit for the first time, the fireplace will emit a slight odour for a few hours. This is a normal temporary condition caused by the "burn-in" of internal paints and lubricants used in the manufacturing process and will not occur again.

After extended periods of non-operation such as following a vacation or a warm weather season, the fireplace may emit a slight odour for a few hours. This is caused by dust particles in the heat exchanger burning off. In both cases, open a window to sufficiently ventilate the room.
