b.Placing the Lava Rock and Vermiculite

See Figure 22 for lava rock and vermiculite placement.

c.Placing the Rock Wool

Place a small amount of 1/2” diameter pieces (dime- size) of rock wool on the burner pan so that the rock wool touches but does not cover the holes in the burner pan. This will provide the “glowing embers” look. See Figure 22.

6.GLASS AND SCREEN REPLACEMENT

See page 21 of this instruction manual.

I. DETERMINING THE IGNITION TYPE

To determine whether your appliance is an intermittent pilot ignition or a standing pilot ignition, open the control access panel (Figure 23) to examine the wiring system. If your system has a red ignitor button, as shown in Figure 24, you own a standing pilot ignition appliance. If no red ignitor button is present, you own an intermittent pilot ignition appliance.

You may also check the rating label located on the inside of the control access panel to determine ignition type.
