Step 11. Before Lighting the Appliance

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

Remove all paperwork from underneath the appliance.

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 appliance, double-check the unit for possible gas leaks.

Double-check vent terminations and front grilles for obstructions.

Before lighting the appliance, 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 appliance components is DANGEROUS and voids all war- ranties.

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

Subsequent lightings of the appliance 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.

NOTE: The appliance should be run 3 to 4 hours on the initial start-up. Turn it off and let it cool completely. Remove and clean the glass. Replace the glass and run the appliance for an additional 12 hours. This will help to cure the products used in the paint and logs.

During this break-in period it is recommended that some windows in the house be opened for air circulation. This will help avoid setting off smoke detectors, and help eliminate any odors associated with the appliance’s initial burning.

Step 12. Lighting the Appliance

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