OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

NORMAL OPERATING 

SOUNDS OF 

GAS APPLIANCES

It is possible that you will hear some sounds from 
your gas appliance. This is perfectly normal due to 
the fact that there are various gauges and types 
of steel used within your appliance. Listed below 
are  some  examples.  All  are 

normal operating 

sounds 

and should not be considered as defects 

in your appliance.

Blower: 

Regency  gas  appliances  use  high  tech  blowers 
to push heated air farther into the room. It is not 
unusual  for  the  fan  to  make  a  "whirring"  sound 
when  ON. This  sound  will  increase  or  decrease 
in volume depending on the speed setting of your 
fan speed control.

Burner Tray: 

The  burner  tray  is  positioned  directly  under  the 
burner tube(s) and logs and is made of a different 
gauge  material  from  the  rest  of  the  firebox  and 
body. Therefore, the varying thicknesses of steel 
will expand and contract at slightly different rates 
which can cause "ticking" and "cracking" sounds. You 
should also be aware that as there are temperature 
changes  within  the  unit  these  sounds  will  likely 
re-occur. Again, this is normal for steel fireboxes.

Gas Control Valve:

 

As the gas control valve turns ON and OFF, a dull 
clicking sound may be audible, this is normal opera-
tion of a gas regulator or valve.

Unit Body/Firebox:

 

Different  types  and  thicknesses  of  steel  will  ex-
pand  and  contract  at  different  rates  resulting  in 
some "cracking" and "ticking" sounds will be heard 
throughout the cycling process.

RESETTING THE UNIT

If the appliance goes to 'lockout', the system 

will have to be reset by depressing the reset 
button - located on the right side of the unit 
by glass frame.

*Important

: Wait at least 5 min for any un-

burned gas to clear before resetting the 
appliance.

1) "Turn unit "on" via remote or touch pad.

2)

 Locate the reset button on the bottom right 

side of the fascia.

3

)

 Press and release the reset button - once. 

4

)

 Wait for approximately 3 seconds - the

    pilot sparks can be heard and seen. It will
    take approximately 2 to 3 seconds for the 

flame to be lit.

NOTE:

  Wait 5 minutes between reset 

              attempts.

NOTE

:   If unit fails to light after 25 seconds; wait 5 

min, then manually reset using red button 
on the right hand side below glass frame.

COPY OF LIGHTING PLATE INSTRUCTIONS

FOR YOUR SAFETY READ BEFORE LIGHTING

A) BEFORE LIGHTING smell all around the appliance 

area for gas. Be sure to smell next to the floor because 

some gas is heavier than air and will settle on the 

floor.

WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS

  -  Do not try to light any appliance

  -  Do not touch any electric switch, do not use   

any phone in your building

  -  Immediately call your gas supplier from a   

  neighbors phone. Follow the gas supplier’s    

  instructions.

  -   If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire 

department.

B) Do not use this appliance if any part has been under 

water. Immediately call a qualified service technician 

to inspect the appliance and to replace any part of 

the control system and any gas control which has 

been under water.

This appliance needs fresh air for safe operation and 

must be installed so there are provisions for adequate 

combustion and ventilation air.
