Operating Instructions
PILOT LIGHT:
1.Turn off the gas to the fireplace. If not recently done, remove the glass and let the unit air out for at least five (5) minutes to clear out any gas. Turn on gas to the heater. Leak test all joints with soapy water. NEVER USE OPEN FLAME FOR LEAK TESTING.
2.Start the pilot by pressing the gas control knob and turning it to PILOT.
While holding the gas control knob in, press the piezo ignitor several | ���������� | ������������ | |
times until the pilot light starts. Hold the gas control knob in for 30 | |||
|
| ||
seconds. Check that the pilot has fully engulfed the thermocouple |
|
| |
assembly (see Figure 3). |
|
| |
3. Start the main burner by turning the gas control knob to ON and then |
|
| |
turn the rocker switch to ON. Check that all burner ports have flame. |
|
| |
4. Leak test all gas joints again. | Figure 3. | Pilot Flame |
AIR SHUTTER:
The air shutter adjustment lever is centered above the controls (see Figure 4).
The air shutter allows the amount of air coming into the fireplace to be adjusted in order to accommodate different climates and venting arrangements. Start the pilot and then the burner. Make sure the pilot flame is burning normally and none of the burner ports are plugged. Let the fireplace burn for roughly fifteen minutes and then examine the flames, compare the flames to Figure 40.
The ideal flame will be blue at the base and light orange above. The flames should be of medium height. If the flames look like this, no venturi adjustment is needed. If the flames are fairly short and mostly
| blue, the fireplace is getting too much | |
��� ������� | air. Therefore, the air shutter should be | |
closed (push in) slightly until the correct | ||
| ||
| flames are achieved. Flames that are | |
���� ��� � ���� | very orange, with tall, dark, stringy tips, | |
| are not getting enough air. Open (pull | |
| out) the venturi until the flames clean | |
���� ��� � ����� | up. If the venturi is opened, or closed all | |
| the way, and the correct flames cannot | |
| be attained, turn off the gas and contact | |
| the dealer. | |
| Warning: Incorrect venturi adjustment | |
| may lead to improper combustion, which | |
| is a safety hazard. Contact the dealer if | |
| there is any concern about the venturi | |

REMOTE CONTROLS:
This fireplace can use an optional remote control or an optional cordless wall thermostat. If either of these are to be used to control the fireplace for the majority of the time, leave the ON/OFF switch (on the control panel) in the remote/thermostat position. Consult the instructions included with the remote/wall thermostat for operation guidelines.
