8.Place lava rock along sides and front of firebox bottom in areas that are visible only. 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.

9.Pull ember material apart into pieces no larger than a dime. Place these pieces loosely and sparingly directly onto the exposed sec- tion of the front burner and along the space between the burner and grate prongs (see Figure 46). 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.

10.Close glass door, lock door latches, replace screen, and close louvers (see Removing/Replacing 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 wir- ing that supplies the electricity to the fireplace. Refer to wiring diagram below.
