THERMOSTAT

CONTROL OPERATION

You can set the thermostat control knob to any comfort level between HI and LO. The ther- mostat will gradually modulate the heat out- put and flame height from higher to lower set- tings, or pilot, in order to maintain the comfort level you select. The ideal comfort setting will vary by household depending upon the amount of space to be heated, the output of the central heating system, etc.

Note: Selecting the HI setting will cause the burner to remain on without modulating down in most cases.

BLOWER

OPERATION

WARNING: This fireplace has a three-prong, grounded electri- cal plug. This plug helps protect you against electrical shock. Only connect plug to a properly grounded, three-prong recep- tacle. Do not cut or remove the grounding prong from this plug.

Locate the blower switch by opening lower lou- ver on fireplace. Blower switch is located at lower left inside louver door.

This thermostat-controlled blower has a vari- able speed control with an ON/OFF switch. The blower will start when the thermostat senses a sufficient increase in firebox temperature.

Note: It is safe to operate fireplace with blower turned off. However, the blower helps distrib- ute heated air from the fireplace.

Note: Periodically check the louvers of the firebox and remove any dust, dirt, or other ob- structions.
