Heat & Glo LifeStyle 7000XLT manual Before Lighting the Fireplace, Heating Control

Step 11. Before Lighting the Fireplace

Before lighting the fireplace, be sure to do the following:

Remove all paperwork from underneath the fireplace. Review safety warnings and cautions

•Read the Safety and Warning Information section at the beginning of this Installers Guide.

Double-check for gas leaks

•Before lighting the fireplace, double-check the unit for possible gas leaks.

Double-check vent terminations and front grilles for obstructions.

•Before lighting the fireplace, double-check the unit for possible obstructions that could be blocking the vent ter- minations or the front grilles.

Double-check for faulty components

•Any component that is found to be faulty MUST BE re- placed with an approved component. Tampering with the fireplace components is DANGEROUS and voids all war- ranties.

A small amount of air will be in the gas supply lines. When first lighting the fireplace, it will take a few minutes for the lines to purge themselves of this air. Once the purging is complete, the fireplace will light and will operate normally.

NOTE: The fireplace should be run for 8 hours on the initial start-up. This will help to cure the chemicals used in the paint and logs.

Subsequent lightings of the fireplace will not require this purging of air from the gas supply lines, unless the gas valve has been turned to the OFF position, in which case the air would have to be purged.

Step 12. Lighting the Fireplace

You’ve reviewed all safety warnings, you’ve checked the fireplace for gas leaks, you know the vent system is unobstructed, and you’ve checked for faulty components. Now you’re ready to light the fireplace.

!WARNING: PLEASE REFER TO THE USER’S MANUAL FOR ALL CAUTIONS, SAFETY, AND

WARNING INFORMATION PERTAINING TO THE LIGHTING AND OPERATION OF THE FIREPLACE.

Step 13. Heating Control

These models are equipped with a baffle which will allow you to control usable heat output. The baffle control lever is located at the lower left corner of the unit behind the lower grille. See Figure 32.

FOR LESS HEAT: Push the baffle lever back and up to lock. This will open the baffle.

FOR MORE HEAT: Pull the baffle lever forward and down. This will close the baffle.
