D. After Appliance is Lit

Initial Break-in Procedure

When you light the 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 of 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.

condensation will disappear.

lowed to burn for 20 to 40 minutes.

Odor from fireplace

by the curing of the paint and the burning off of any oils remaining from manufacturing. Odor may

 

also be released from finishing materials and adhesives used around the fireplace.

Film on the glass

to 4 hours of initial burning to remove deposits left by oils from the manufacturing process. A

 

 

non-abrasive cleaner such as gas fireplace glass cleaner may be necessary. See your dealer.

 

 

 

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 fireplace.

Is it normal to see the pilot flame burn

In an intermittent pilot ignition system (IPI), the pilot flame should turn off when appliance is

turned off. Some optional control systems available with IPI models may allow pilot flame to

continually?

remain lit. In a standing pilot system the pilot will always stay on.
