OPERATION / MAINTENANCE
weather season, the fireplace may emit a slight odour for a
few hours. This is caused by dust particles in the heat ex-
changer burning off. In both cases, open a window to suffi-
ciently ventilate the room.
Purge the gas line with the glass
door removed. Assure that a continuous gas flow is at
the burner before re-installing the door.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
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
LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING:
The gas valve has an interlock device which
will not allow the pilot burner to be lit until the thermo-
couple has cooled. Allow approximately 60 seconds for
the thermocouple to cool.
When lighting and re-lighting, the gas knob cannot be turned
from pilot to off unless the knob is

next step.
3.
Check to see that all burner ports are burning. Clean out
any of the ports which may not be burning or are not burning
