15. Do not use appliance if any part

has been exposed to or under water.
Immediately call a qualified service
technician to inspect the room
appliance and to replace any part of
the control system (if using control
system) and any gas control which
has been under water. 

16. To help prevent breakage, new logs

must be broken-in (see Curing Logs
page 6). 

17. Turn log set off and let cool before

SAFETY 
INFORMATION

 

3.    Never install the log set 

  in a recreational vehicle 

where curtains, furniture, clothing, 
or other flammable objects are 
less than 42 inches from the front, 
top, or sides of the log set 

  in high traffic areas 

  in windy or drafty areas 

4.  Before installing in a solid fuel 

burning fireplace, the chimney flue and 
fire-box must be cleaned of soot, 
creosote, ashes and loose paint by a 
qualified chimney cleaner. Creosote 
will ignite if highly heated. Inspect 
chimney flue for damage. 

5. You must operate this log set with a 

fire-place screen in place. Make sure 
fireplace screen is closed before 
running log set. If the fireplace has 
glass doors, they must remain OPEN 
while this log set is in operation.   

6. This log set is designed to be smoke- 

less. If logs ever appear to smoke, turn 
off appliance and call a qualified 
service person. Note: During initial 
operation, slight smoking could occur 
due to log curing and the burning of 
manufacturing residues. You may wish 
to add more ventilation by opening a 
window. 

7. To reduce the creation of soot, follow 

the instructions in the Cleaning and 
Maintenance section, page 6. 

8. Do not allow fans to blow directly into 

the fireplace. Avoid any drafts that alter 
burner flame patterns. Ceiling fans can 
create drafts that alter burner flame 
patterns. Altered burner patterns can 
increase sooting. 

9.Do not use a blower insert, heat 

exchanger insert, or other accessory 
not approved for use with this log set. 

10.This log set needs fresh, outside air 

ventilation to run properly. See the Air 
for Combustion and Ventilation section, 
page 3. 

11. Do not run log set 

 where flammable liquids or 

vapors are used or stored 

  under dusty conditions 

12. Do not burn solid fuel in the fireplace 

after installing the log set. Do not use 
this log set to cook food or burn paper 
or other objects. 

13. Log set becomes very hot when in 

use. Keep children and adults away 
from hot surface to avoid burns or 
clothing ignition. Log set will remain hot 
for a short time after shut-down. Allow 
surface to cool before touching. 

14. Carefully supervise young children 

when they are in the room with log set. 

 

WARNING: Keep flue open 

when operating unit. 

IMPORTANT: Read this owner's 
manual carefully and completely 
before trying to assemble, 
operate, or service this log set. 
Improper use of this log set can 
cause serious injury or death 
from burns, fire, explosion, 
electrical shock, and carbon 
monoxide poisoning. 

1.This appliance, as supplied, is only for 

use with the type of gas indicated on 
the rating plate. This appliance is 
convertible for use with propane/LP, 
using the MANUAL ON/OFF VALVE/ 
SAFETY PILOT KIT. 

2. If you smell gas 

  shut off gas supply 

  do not try to light any appliance 

do not touch any electrical switches; 
do not use any phone in your building 

immediately call your gas supplier 

from a neighbor's phone. Follow the 
gas supplier's instructions 

  if you cannot reach your gas supplier, 
call the fire department

 

Carbon Monoxide Poisoning:

 Early 

signs of carbon monoxide poisoning 
resemble the flu with headaches, 
dizziness, or nausea. If you have these 
signs, the log set may not be working 
properly. 

Get fresh air at once!

 Have 

log set serviced. Some people are 
more affected by carbon monoxide 
than others. These include pregnant 
women, people with heart or lung 
disease or anemia, those under the 
influence of alcohol, and those at high 
altitudes. 

 

Natural Gas:

 Natural gas is odorless. 

An odor-making agent is added to the 
gas. The odor helps you detect a gas 
leak. However, the odor added to the 
gas can fade. Gas may be present 
even though no odor exists. 

 

Make certain you read and understand 
all warnings. Keep this manual for 
reference. It is your guide to safe and 
proper operation of this log set. 

WARNING: Any change to this 

log set or its controls can be 
dangerous. 

1. Remove logs, hearth kit, pan materials, 

and hardware from carton. 

2. Remove all protective packaging applied 

to logs and base for shipment. 

3. Check all items for any shipping damage. 

If damaged, promptly inform dealer 
where you bought the product. 

 CAUTION:

 

Do not remove the 

metal data plates from the burner pan. 
The data plates contain important 
product information.
