Outside Combustion Air Controls

Many appliances are equipped, when installed,
with an outside (make-up air) vent system that
is designed to provide the appliance with outside
make-up air for combustion when in operation.
The combustion air control lever for the outside
air system is standard on all appliances but
should not be operated if the complete system
is not installed. Refer to Figure 4. When the
complete outside air vent system is installed,
the installer will remove the securing screw from
the combustion air control lever located on the
left side of the fi replace bottom opening.

If the securing screw has not been removed
and you have reason to believe that you have
a complete outside air system, contact your
distributor to have your appliance inspected for
the presence of the complete system. DO NOT
assume that you have this system in place.

and Securing Screw Location

Figure 4

To open the outside air shutter, open the bottom
control access panel, reach into control com-
partment and pull the combustion air control
lever all the way out. The outside air shutter
should be fully open when the fi replace is in
use and completely closed when the fi replace
is not being used. Closing it when not in use
will prevent outside cold air from entering the
dwelling.

Step 13. Spillage Test and Safety Limit
Switch Operation

Spillage Test

After appliance installation, perform this spill-
age test to verify that proper venting conditions
exist:

1 - Place unit in its normally-operated condi-

tion, that is, with the glass enclosure panel
in place.

2 - Close all doors and windows in the room.

Turn on all exhaust fans in the house.

3 - Light the appliance.
4 - Wait 15 minutes.
5 - To check for venting action, start by holding

a smoke producing device within an inch
of one edge (side edge, not top or bottom
edge) of the glass enclosure panel. The
smoke should be drawn toward the edge
of the glass enclosure panel. Continue the
test by moving the smoke producing device
along the entire length of both side-edges
of the glass door.

6 - If the smoke is not drawn towards the

edges of the glass door turn off the
appliance and call a qualifi ed service
technican.

Manually-Reset Safety Limit Switch

This appliance is equipped with a manually-reset
blocked fl ue safety limit switch. Refer to Figure
5 on Page 7
for its location. If, during appliance
operation, the fl ame goes out (independently of
the burner on/off wall switch), it may be due to
the operation of this safety limit switch. First
allow the appliance to cool
. Remove top louver
panel. Then reset the safety limit switch by
pushing the red reset button, located between
the wire terminals, on the back of the switch.
See Detail A of Figure 5 for location.

The appliance should then relight and remain
lit. Reinstall top louver panel. If the appliance
does not relight, turn off the appliance and call
for a qualifi ed service technician
.

To replace the blocked fl ue safety limit
switch
refer to Figure 5 on Page 7 (Details
B and C):

NOTE - This procedure should only be performed
by a qualifi ed service technician.

Important - Turn electrical power off before
beginning this procedure.

1 - Lower the bottom control compartment

access panel. Remove the glass enclosure
panel: open the latch (located in the center
of the unit front opening, under the fi rebox
fl oor) securing the glass enclosure panel.
Remove the panel by tilting it outward at
the bottom and lifting it up. Set the door
aside protecting it from inadvertent dam-
age. See Figure 6 on Page 7.

2 - Remove the lintel securing screws (3) and

then remove the lintel. One of the lintel
cabinet top holes is shown in Figure 5
(Detail B)
.

3 - Remove the scoop securing screws (3)

and then remove the scoop. See Figure
5 (Detail B)
.

4 - Remove the safety switch bracket securing

screws (2), and pull the switch/bracket
assembly, with low voltage wires attached,
through the side panel slot into the fi rebox.
See Figure 5 (Detail C).
