Operating Instructions

For Your Safety, Read Safety Precautions

And Lighting Instructions Before Operating

The ideal flame will be blue at the base and light orange above. The flames should be of medium height. If the flames look like this (refer to Figure 59 or the Front Cover), no adjustment is needed. If the flames are fairly short and mostly blue, the fireplace is getting too much air. Therefore, the air shutter should be closed slightly until the correct flames are achieved. Flames that are very orange, with tall, dark, stringy tips, are not getting enough air. Open the air shutter until the flames clean up. If the shutter is opened, or closed all the way, and the correct flames cannot be attained, turn off the gas and contact the dealer.

Warning: Incorrect air shutter adjustment may lead to improper combustion, which is a safety hazard. Contact the dealer if there is any concern about the venturi adjustment.

REMOTE CONTROLS (OPTIONAL):

This fireplace can use an optional remote control or an optional cordless wall thermostat. If either of these are to be used to control the fireplace for the majority of the time, leave the ON/OFF switch (on the rear of the unit) in the “ON” position. Consult the instructions included with the remote/wall thermostat for operation guidelines. When insalling the Remote Control module, cut out the label along the dotted line of the Cara Control Panel, and mount the module to the back of the panel using the two (2) provided Torx T-20 screws and nuts.

BLOWER SPEED:

For units equipped with blowers, the blower will come on only when the fireplace is up to temperature (approximately 12 minutes with unit on high). The blower is equipped with a variable fan controller, located in the front control panel. This manual control will adjust the fan speed from high to low or turn the fan off. A remote control for the fan is available through your dealer.
