Operating Guidelines

Before operating this heater, please review the safety warnings pages at the beginning of this manual and those precautions and warnings listed below.

1.Know what type of ignition system this model has (standing pilot) and follow the applicable SAFETY and LIGHTING instructions.

2.Check to ensure there are no gas leaks. If you are unsure, turn gas off to the heater and call a service person or your gas utility.

CAUTION: Clothing or other flammable material should not be placed on or near the appliance.

WARNING: Children and adults should be alerted to the hazard of high surface temperature and should stay away to avoid burns or clothing ignition. Young children should be carefully supervised when they are in the same room as the appliance.

3.Tampering is DANGEROUS and voids all warranties. Any component that is found to be faulty, must be replaced with an approved component.

Initial Lighting (Figure 21)

Upon completing the gas line or turning the gas valve "ON" after it has been in the "OFF" position, a small amount of air will be in the lines. When first lighting the appliance, it will take a few minutes for the lines to purge themselves of this air. Once the purging is complete, the appliance will light and operate satisfactorily.

Subsequent lightings of the appliance will not require such purging if the gas valve is not turned to "OFF."

Standing Pilot Operation

1.Follow the SAFETY and LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS for standing pilot controls found in this manual and on labels found attached to the appliance.

CAUTION: During the initial purging and subsequent lightings, never allow the gas valve control knob to remain depressed in the "pilot" position without pushing the piezo ignitor button at least once every second.

2.During the heating season, leave the control valve knob in the "ON" position. This will allow the pilot flame to remain lit. Turn the burner flame on or off with the appliance ON/OFF rocker switch, wall switch, remote control kits or 750 millivolt wall thermostat.

NOTE: The gas control valve allows you to increase or decrease the height of the main burner flame. The control valve has a pressure regulator with a knob as shown in Figure 21. Rotate the knob clockwise to "HI" to increase the flame height and counterclockwise to "LO" to decrease the flame height.

3.When the heating season is over, turn the on/off switch to "OFF" and the control valve to "OFF". The system, including the pilot light, will be shut down.

Figure 21

Maximum and Minimum Input

The gas valve on the appliance allows the input to adjust between a maximum input of 30,000 Btuh for Natural gas and Propane gas to a minimum input of 19,500 Btuh for Natural and 22,000 Btuh for Propane. Please be advised, the maximum input provides the greatest amount of yellow flame and ember glow on the log set. The minimum input substantially decreases the yellow flame and ember glow on the log set.

Maintenance & Service Instructions

IMPORTANT: Turn off gas before servicing appliance. It is recommended that a competent service technician perform these check- ups at the beginning of each heating season.

DO NOT put anything around the heater that will obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air. See clearances.

DO examine venting system periodically. Clean and replace dam- aged parts. Examinations should be made at the start of the heating season and also in mid heating season under average conditions.
