C. 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.

CAUTION

•Prevent accidental appliance operation when not attended.

•Unplug or remove batteries from remote control if absent or if appliance will not be used for an extended period of time.

•Property damage possible from elevated temperatures.

CAUTION

•Smoke may set off smoke detectors.

Smoke and odors may be irritating to sensitive individuals.

D. Frequently Asked Questions

ISSUE

SOLUTIONS

 

 

Condensation of the glass

This is a result of gas combustion and temperature variations. As the appliance warms, this

condensation will disappear.

 

 

 

Blue flames

This is a result of normal operation and the flames will begin to yellow as the appliance is al-

lowed to burn for 20 to 40 minutes.

 

 

 

 

When first operated, this appliance may release an odor for the first several hours. This is

Odor from appliance

caused by the curing of the paint and the burning off of any oils remaining from manufactur-

ing. Odor may also be released from finishing materials and adhesives used around the

 

 

appliance.

 

 

Film on the glass

This is a normal result of the curing process of the paint and logs. Glass should be cleaned

within 3 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

Metallic noise

the sound produced by a furnace or heating duct. This noise does not affect the operation or

 

longevity of the appliance.

 

 

Is it normal to see the pilot flame burn

In an Intellifire ignition system it is normal to see the pilot flame, but it should turn off when

continually?

ON/OFF is turned off. In a standing pilot system the pilot will always stay on.
