NOT INSTALL the heater. Contact your dealer for the correct model or conversion kit.

GAS PRESSURE ADJUSTMENT NOTE: A QUALIFIED TECHNICIAN MUST PERFORM THIS PROCEDURE!

The supply line pressure is tested to ensure is meets minimum pressure requirements, as listed in the Specifications sections of this manual, for the type of fuel in use (NG or LP).

The unit must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than ½ psig.

During tests in excess of ½ psig (14” w.c.), the heater must be disconnected from the gas supply system. Test by connecting a manometer to the supply line. Adjust the incoming pressure, if necessary, to meet the required supply line pressure.

Once connected to the gas supply, the gas inlet pressure and manifold gas pressure must be tested. The gas inlet tap (6) and manifold pressure tap (7) is located on the control valve (see Figure 14). Connect a manometer to the test points on the gas control valve.

NOTE: For installations from 610-1370 meters (2000-4500ft), the orifice sizes (DMS) for natural and propane gas are 32

and 49 respectively. (Cet appareil est equipé pour des altitudes compries entre 2000 et 4500 pieds (610-1370m) seulement.) See data plate for additional information. For high altitude installations consult the local gas distributor or the authority having

jurisdiction for proper rating methods. If the unit must be adjusted, the information sticker (provided with the high altitude kit) must be filled out completely and mounted to the unit per the instructions provided with the kit.

CAUTION: Fragile! Handle log set with care. Always wear gloves and safety goggles while handling the log set.

LOG PLACEMENT

Only the decorative ceramic fiber log set supplied with the unit should be placed in the firebox. Do not place any other ceramic logs, wood logs, or other materials in the firebox. If the log set is damaged or broken contact your dealer for replacement. The decorative ceramic fiber log set will last a long time, however, they will break if subjected to rough or improper handling. Exact positioning of the log set is required in order to obtain a pleasing flame pattern and

efficient combustion. Incorrect log placement may cause carbon build-up; excess thermal stress on the log set and stove parts, reduced efficiency, and high levels of carbon monoxide. If the log set does not set into the firebox exactly as outlined, contact your dealer for assistance.
