Installing lava rock and glowing embers

It is very important to keep logs exactly as installed. Do not modify logs. Only use log set designed for this fireplace. Logs under log/grate assembly are attached to burner. Do not attempt to move these logs as this will damage logs.

WARNING: Logs are unitized and attached to the grate. Do not handle log/grate assembly by logs. Always pick up by grate.

Open louvers, remove screen, unlock door latches and open glass door. See Removing Glass Door, steps 1 and 2, page 25.

1.Pull ember material apart into pieces no larger than a dime. Place these pieces loosely and spar- ingly directly onto the exposed front section of the burner (see Figure 43). This will create the glowing ember appearance as the flame touches the ember material. Do not block air slots by using too much ember material in one area. It is not necessary to use all of the ember material provided.

2.Pour lava rock onto plenum but not onto flat burner. It is not necessary to use all of the lava rock provided.

NOTICE: Do not put lava rock on burner or under burner. Placing lava rock on burner will cause performance problems.

3.Close glass door, lock door latches, replace screen and close louvers (see Removing Glass Door, steps 5 through 7).

WARNING: The glass door must be securely in place before running this fireplace. Do not run this fireplace if glass is missing or broken.
