Operation

1.Your Acadia gas fireplace can be operated manu- ally using the On/Off/T-stat rocker switch or it can be automatically controlled using an optional wall-mounted thermostat and/or remote control device. A separate switch is provided for the optional forced air blower kit.

Familiarize yourself with the location and func- tion of the controls. See Figs. 51 and 52.

Gas Control - Used to control the Pilot light and gas flow from the supply line.

Regulator - Allows you to adjust heat output and flame intensity.

Piezo Ignitor - Push button pilot light ignition.

ON/OFF/ T’STAT Switch - Allows for manual or thermostatic control of the burner.

Always follow the Lighting Instructions located on the inside Back Cover of this manual.

2.For the first several hours of operation, it is common that you will detect some odor as the metal and manufacturing materials cure under heat. This condition is temporary and can be alleviated by allowing plenty of fresh air to circulate through the area.

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

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

When a vacuum is used on any service for the fireplace, ALWAYS be sure the fireplace is com- pletely cold.

5.Remember, your fireplace utilizes a continuously burning pilot flame. Exercise caution when using household products containing combustible vapors.

6.CAUTION: DO NOT OPERATE THIS APPLIANCE WITH THE GLASS REMOVED, CRACKED OR BRO- KEN. REPLACEMENT OF THE GLASS SHOULD BE DONE BY A LICENSED OR QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSON. USE ONLY REPLACEMENT GLASS PRO- VIDED BY YOUR AUTHORIZED JØTUL DEALER. NEVER USE ANY SUBSTITUTE MATERIALS.
