OPERATION / MAINTENANCE

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

If heater shuts off, do not relight until you provide fresh air. If heater keeps shutting off, have it serv- iced. Keep burner and control compartment clean.

When lit for the first time, the fireplace will emit a slight odour for a few hours. This is a normal temporary condi- tion caused by the curing of the logs and the "burn-in" of internal paints and lubricants used in the manufacturing process and will not occur again. After extended periods of non-operation such as following a vacation or a warm weather season, the fireplace may emit a slight odour for a few hours. This is caused by dust particles burning off. In both cases, open a window to sufficiently ventilate the room.

FOR YOUR SAFETY READ BEFORE OPERATING

WARNING: IF YOU DO NOT FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS EXACTLY, A FIRE OR EXPLO- SION MAY RESULT CAUSING PROPERTY DAMAGE, PERSONAL INJURY OR LOSS OF LIFE.

A. This fireplace is equipped with a pilot which must be lit by hand while following these instructions exactly.

B. Before operating smell all around the fireplace area for gas and next to the floor because some gas is heavier than air and will settle on the floor.

C. Use only your hand to push in and turn the gas control knob. Never use tools. If the knob will not push in and turn by hand, do not try to repair it. Call a qualified service technician. Force or attempted repair may result in a fire or explosion.

D. Do not use this fireplace if any part has been under wa- ter. Immediately call a qualified service technician to in- spect the fireplace and replace any part of the control sys- tem and any gas control which has been under water.

WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS:

• Do not try to light any appliance.

• Do not touch any electric switch; do not use any phone in your building.

• Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbour's phone. Follow the gas supplier's instructions.

• If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire

department.
