Starting the Heater for the First Time
•Burn the heater at a high setting with the blower off for an extended period (up to 48 hours). This will cure the painted surfaces. Fumes from the paint curing and oil burning off the steel will occur. This is normal. We recommend opening a window to vent the room.
•Condensation may appear on the glass each time you start the heater - this is normal.
•Blue Flames will occur on the heater when it first comes on. After fifteen minutes the flames will turn a more realistic yellow and orange color.
•Certain installations use a remote "wall switch" to turn the heater on and off. If this is the case, leave the ON/OFF switch "ON".

For systems with wall thermostats, use this switch to control the temperature (right is hotter, left cooler). Some systems require the on/off switch to be on.
•Do not place any combustible items on top of or directly in front of the heater, even temporarily. The optional thermostat may start the heater causing a combustible item to ignite.
•If the heater turns on and off frequently while using the thermostat, you may want to adjust the flame height down until it produces just enough heat needed.
Adjusting the Flame Height
•Your heater has an adjustable flame to tailor the look and heat output to your specific needs. It is adjusted by turning the middle dial on the gas control valve.
