OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
1)The FIRST FIRE in your stove is part of the paint curing process. To ensure that the paint is properly cured, it is recommended that you burn your fireplace for at least four
(4) hours the first time you use it with the fan on. When first operated, the unit will release an odour caused by the curing of the paint and the burning off of any oils remaining from manufacturing. Smoke de- tectors in the house may go off at this time. Open a few windows to ventilate the room for a couple of hours. The glass panel may require cleaning.
Do Not Attempt To Clean The Glass
While it is still hot!
Note: When the glass is cold and the appliance is lit, it may cause con- densation and fog the glass. This condensation is normal and will disappear in a few minutes as the glass heats up.
DO NOT BURN THE APPLIANCE WITHOUT THE GLASS FRONT IN PLACE.
2)Read and understand these instructions before operating this appliance.
3)Check to see that all wiring is correct and enclosed to prevent possible shock.
4)Check to ensure there are no gas leaks.
5)Make sure the glass in the door frame is properly positioned. Never operate the appliance with the glass removed.
6)Verify that the venting is unobstructed.
7)Verify log placement. If the pilot cannot be seen when lighting the unit - the logs have been incorrectly positioned.
8)The unit should never be turned off, and on again without a minimum of a 60 second wait for purging.
LIGHTING
PROCEDURE
IMPORTANT: Gas cock knob cannot be turned from "PILOT" to "OFF" unless it is partially depressed.
1)Turn burner OFF using "ON/OFF" switch.
2)Turn gas control knob so indicator points to "OFF" position and allow 5 minutes for any gas in the combustion chamber to escape.
3)Turn gas control knob counterclockwise so indicator points to the "PILOT" position. Depress the gas control knob fully. De- press the igniter button several times until the pilot lights. After approximately one minute, release the gas control knob. The pilot flame should continue to burn. If the pilot does not remain lit, repeat operation allowing a longer period before releasing gas control knob.
4)When the pilot stays lit, turn the gas knob further counterclockwise to the "ON" posi- tion.
5)Use the ON/OFF switch, wall switch, ther- mostat or remote control to turn on the unit.
6)Rotate the flame height regulator (Hi/Lo) to adjust the flame height higher or lower.
SHUTDOWN
PROCEDURE
1)Use the "ON/OFF" switch, wall switch, thermostat or remote control to turn off the burner.
2)Push in the PILOT knob slightly and turn clockwise to "OFF". Do not force.
3)Turn off all electric power to the appliance if service is to be performed.
MAINTENANCE
INSTRUCTIONS
1)Always turn off the gas valve before cleaning. For relighting, refer to lighting instructions. Keep the burner and control compartment clean by brushing and vacu- uming at least once a year.
When cleaning the logs, use a soft clean brush as the logs are fragile and easily damaged.
2)Clean appliance and door with a damp cloth (never when unit is hot). Never use an abrasive cleaner. The glass should be cleaned with a gas fireplace glass cleaner (when it starts to cloud up).
3)The heater is finished in a heat resistant paint and should only be refinished with heat resistant paint. Regency uses Stove Brite Paint - Metallic Black #6309.
4)Make a periodic check of burner for proper position and condition. Visually check the flame of the burner periodically, making sure the flames are steady; not lifting or floating. If there is a problem, call a qualified service person.
5)The appliance and venting system must be inspected before use, and at least annual- ly, by a qualified field service person, to ensure that the flow of combustion and ventilation air is not obstructed.
During the annual service call, the burners should be removed from the burner tray and cleaned. Replace the embers and rock wool.
6)Each time the appliance is lit, it may cause condensation and fog the glass. This condensation is normal and will disappear in a few minutes as the glass heats up.
7)Caution: Label all wires prior to disconnec- tion when servicing controls. Wiring errors can cause improper and dangerous oper- ation. Verify proper operation after serv- icing.
