Operation

Familiarize yourself with the controls of the GF 300 DV. Make sure that anyone else using the appliance is also familiar with the controls and operation procedures.

Always follow the Lighting Instructions on the inside back cover of this manual and also located on the Rating Plate attached to the burner assembly.

1.Once the pilot is lit, burner operation is controlled by the rocker switch located at the left corner of the rear shroud. See fig. 39.

ON / OFF - use for manual control of the burner. T-STAT- use for optional thermostatic or remote control operation. The burner will be controlled by those accessories.

2.During the first few fires, you may notice odor and/or smoke from the stove. This is normal and results from burn-off of manufacturing residue and curing of materials. You may find it helpful to provide additional ventilation and fresh air to alleviate this condition.

3.Condensation may occur on the glass upon each lighting of the appliance. This “fog” will disappear as the appliance heats up.

4.Keep the controls and the area under the appliance free of debris, vacuum this area frequently. Always keep the appliance area clear and free from combus- tible materials, gasoline and other flammable liquids.

If a vacuum is used during any service on the stove, ALWAYS be sure the stove is cold and there are NO hot embers.

5. Remember, this appliance has a continuous burning pilot flame. Exercise caution when using products having combustible vapors. Always shut-off gas supply while servicing the stove.
