IMPORTANT:
PLEASE REVIEW THE FOLLOWING CAREFULLY
It is normal for fireplaces fabricated of steel to give off some expansion and/or contraction noises during the start up or cool down cycle. Similar noises are found with your furnace heat exchanger or car engine.
It is not unusual for your Majestic gas fireplace to give off some odour the first time it is burned. This is due to the curing of the paint and any undetected oil from the manufacturing process.
Please ensure that your room is well ventilated - open all windows.
It is recommended that you burn your Majestic fireplace for a least six (6) hours the first time you use it. If optional fan kit has been installed, place fan in the "OFF" position during this time.
