TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT

(TN/TP MODELS)

The Hi/Lo reference on the control knob (Fig. 19) is to indicate a higher or lower temperature setting. This setting

controls the heat by reducing then

CERAMIC REFRACTORY

RFS42 ONLY

1.Remove bay window assembly and glass frame (see "Glass frame Removal" section).

2.Remove logs from the unit.

LOGS MAY BE HOT

3. Remove refractory from packaging.

Refractory are fragile and must be handled with care. Where at all possible, two hands should be used when handling.

4.Take centre refractory piece and place it at the very back of the firebox.

5.Take left or right side refractory and slide it along the side of the firebox and on top of the bottom support channel. Be sure to slide it back to hold the centre piece in place and the leading edge faces forward.

6.Fasten top tab support against the refractory to hold it in place.

7.Repeat steps 5 and 6 for remaining side refactory.

8.Insert refractory pieces into the Bay Window as per Fig. 23.
