Step 11. Before Lighting the Fireplace

Ember Light Replacement Bulb

In the lower gas valve compartment you will find three ac- cess panels for the three light bulbs (see Figure 54).

ACCESS PANEL

Using a 5/16” nut driver remove the two bolts (see Figure 55).

ACCESS PANEL

Figure 55.

Pull the access panel to expose the light bulb. Wearing clean cotton gloves replace the bulb. Any skin oils which get on a new bulb will greatly shorten the life of the bulb. The bulb can be cleaned with isopropyl alcohol (see Figure 56).

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.

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.

NOTE: The fireplace 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 fireplace for an additional 8 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 fireplace’s initial burning.

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.
