OPERATION AND CARE OF YOUR APPLIANCE

1.Appliance operation may be controlled through the optional ON/OFF unit rocker switch, located in the lower control compartment, or through a remotely located optional wall switch or wall thermostat. Separate switches may provide independent control for the forced air blower and remote fireplace operation (op- tional equipment).

2.These heater rated units are equipped with a two stage (HI, LOW) gas control valve. To cycle the burner between the HI and LOW settings, rotate the control knob, located in the center of the valve front face, clockwise and counter- clockwise respectively.

3.When lit for the first time, the appliance will emit a slight odor for an hour or two. This is due to the “burn-in” of the internal paints and lubricants used in the manufacturing process. Additionally, when lit for the first time, this appliance may produce smoke, this is normal and should be expected. For the first few hours, operate the appliance with doors and windows open to encourage the dissipation of smoke and fumes.

4.Upon each lighting of the appliance, conden- sation may occur and fog the inside of the glass panel. This condition will disappear shortly as the appliance heats.

5.Keep lower control compartment clean by vacuuming or brushing at least twice a year. More frequent cleanings may be required due to excessive lint from carpeting, bedding mate- rials, etc. It is important that the control com- partments, burners and circulating air pas- sageways of the heater be kept clean.

6.Always turn off gas to pilot before cleaning. Before relighting, refer to the lighting instruc- tions in this manual. Instructions are also found on a pull-out panel located on the floor of the appliance.

7.Always keep the appliance area clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable liquids.

8.Remember, this appliance has a continuous burning pilot flame. Exercise caution when using products with combustible vapors.

CLEANING AND SERVICING

WARNING: TURN OFF THE UNVENTED GAS ROOM HEATER AND ALLOW TO COOL BEFORE CLEANING.

Only limited cleaning will be required under the normal use of the heater. Dust the front grate, the top of the piezo cover and the control knob occasionally. Do not use cleaning fluids to clean the logs or any other part of the room heater.

Remove the log assembly, gently handling by holding each log at each end. Use a vacuum cleaner to remove loose particles from the base and from around the burners. Gloves are rec- ommended to prevent the fibers from pricking your skin. If the skin is pricked, wash gently with soap and water. Replace the logs as de- tailed in Step 12 Assembling the Logs.

If, after a period of use, the flames start to exhibit unusual shapes and behavior, or the burners fail to ignite smoothly, then the burner holes may require some cleaning. If this hap- pens, it is preferable to contact your nearest dealer to get the appliance serviced.
