When finishing the front of the fireplace, combustible mate-
rial must never overlap into the face of the unit.
There are two different ways the unit can be set and fin-
ished. Figure 28 shows the fireplace face flush with the wall
covering material. In this case a 12” piece of non-combus-
tible material must be placed above the fireplace, see Fig-
ure 27 (top). Use the nailing tabs that are set back 1/2”.
The second way the fireplace can be set and finished is to
cover the entire face of the fireplace with non-combustible
material, see Figure 27 (bottom). In this case the fireplace
is set flush with the stud, see Figure 29. Use the forward set
of nailing tabs.
No matter what method is used, the finishing material must
NEVER pass the 1/2” metal edge around the opening and
overhang into the glass opening.
WARNING: FACING AND/OR FINISHING MA-
TERIAL MUST NEVER OVERHANG INTO THE
GLASS OPENING.
Positioning the Logs
If the gas logs have been factory installed they should not
need to be positioned. If the logs have been packaged
separately, refer to the instructions that accompany the
logs. Save the log instructions with this manual.
If sooting occurs, the logs might need to be repositioned
slightly to avoid excessive flame impingement.
Step 11. Positioning the Logs,
and Placing the Ember Material
Placing the Ember Material
Ember material is shipped with this gas fireplace. To place
the ember material:
• Remove the ash lip that is located in front of the glass.
• Remove the side panels that are located in front of the
glass.
• Remove the pull mesh firescreen by unhooking from the
fireplace.
• Pull and release the four glass latches (2 per side) lo-
cated on the sides of the glass frame.
• Grasping the upper lip with one hand and the lower lip
with the other, pull the bottom of the glass out first. Guide
the bottom while letting the top drop down under the top
of the opening (see Figure 30).

• There are two types of ember shipped with the unit. Plati-
num Embers for the burner surface and Mystic Embers
for the floor of the unit.
• Do NOT place Platinum Embers between log #3 and
log #4. They may disrupt the flames and are not visible.
• Place Mystic Embers on the floor of the unit. Use the
Mystic Embers to hide the pilot wires on the left side of
the burner.
• Save the remaining ember materials for use during fire-
place servicing.
• Replace the glass firescreen and door front trim on the
unit.
