Fireplace Installation

Continued

Installing logs, lava rock and glowing embers

Each log is marked with a number. These numbers will help you identify the log when installing. It is very important to install these logs exactly as instructed. Do not modify logs. Only use logs sup- plied with fireplace.

Open louvers, remove screen, unlock door latches, and open glass door. See steps 1 and 2 of Removing/Replacing Glass Door, page 19. Install logs according to instructions for fireplace model numbers.

1.Place log #1 (left base log) onto pin on left side of burner as shown in Figure 39.

2.Place log #2 (right base log) onto pin on right side of burner as shown in Figure 39.

3.Place logs #3 (left front log) and log #4 (right front log) onto pins as shown in Figure 40.

4.Place log #5 (right rear log) onto pins on right rear of burner (see Figure 41). Rest log #6 (middle crossover log) on top of log number 2 as shown in Figure 41.

5.Place back end of log #7 (left rear log) onto pin on left rear burner and rest front onto log #1 as shown in Figure 42.

6.Rest log #8 (left crossover log) onto log #3 and rest log #9 (right crossover log) onto logs #4 and #5 as shown in Figure 43.

7.Pull ember material apart into pieces no larger than a dime. Place these pieces loosely and sparingly directly onto the exposed front section of the burner (see Figure 44). 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.

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

8.Close glass door, lock door latches, replace screen, and close louvers (see Removing Glass Door, steps 5 through 7, page 19).

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

WALL SWITCH INSTALLATION

The installation of a wall switch allows you to activate the gas control valve and turn the fireplace on and off. The wall switch is to be connected to the incoming 120 volt regular household wiring that supplies the electricity to the fireplace. See Wiring Diagram on page 21.

optional Remote control

INSTALLATION (model WRC)

Note: If using optional wireless hand-held remote control, the wall switch must be in the ON position to be operational. The remote control then becomes the switching mechanism for fireplace op- eration.

1.Open lower louver panel of firebox.

2.The WRC model receiver does not require a battery. The receiver can be installed by first plugging the short extension cord into the fireplace receptacle. Then plug the receiver unit into the extension cord. Finally plug the ignition module plug into the receiver unit (see Figure 45).
