CURING LOGS

During the 2-3 hour appliance break-in period, you may detect an odor from the appliance as the various paints and com- pounds used in the manufacturing of this log set cure. This is a normal and tempo- rary situation that is not cause for alarm. However, you may want to provide extra ventilation to the room during this time. To ensure proper curing of the logs:

Ignite a 2" flame and maintain it for 1 hour.

Burn the logs in consecutive 1 hour pe- riods raising the flame an additional 2" to full flame height for a total of three hours.
