Use a glove to avoid contact if hot. For best results
when fine-tuning the flame picture, initially leave
the middle lever unchanged from its factory set-
ting. Move the other two levers as needed to
increase or decrease the brightness and length of
the flame: moving left will increase the flame;
moving right will decrease the flame.
MONITORING THE GAS FLAME
Periodically, the flames of the Clarity Fireplace
Insert should be checked while it is in operation.
The flames should be well-defined and stable. They
should be bright yellow with a blue base where
attached to the burner ports. The flames should not
look orange or sooty. Portions of the logs will glow
red when the flames are properly adjusted.
If you find the flames to be other than that
described here, do not operate the heater. Consult
a qualified service person or your Harman dealer
for advice.
Operation
HOW TO LIGHT THE FIRE
1. STOP! Read the safety information on the
lighting instructions label on the stove.
2. If using the optional thermostat, set thermo-
stat to the lowest setting.
3. Turn off electric power to the appliance.
4. Turn the ON-OFF/THERMOSTAT switch to
the OFF position.
5. Push in the gas control knob slightly and turn
it clockwise to "OFF."
NOTE: The knob cannot be turned from "PILOT"
to "OFF" unless it is pushed in slightly. Do not
force it.
6. Wait five (5) minutes to clear out any gas. If
you then smell gas, STOP! Follow "B" in the safety
information on the swing-out label. If you don't
smell gas, go to the next step.
7. Set the High-Low Regulator to High by turning
it fully counterclockwise.
8. Press in the gas control knob slightly and turn
counterclockwise to "PILOT."
9. Find the pilot by looking through the round
opening on the left end of the center log.
10. Push the control knob fully down and hold.
Immediately push the red piezo ignitor button to
light the pilot. It is normal to have to push the red
button several times before the pilot ignites. Con-
tinue to hold the control knob in for about one (1)
minute after the pilot is lit. Release the knob and it
will pop back up. Pilot should remain lit. If it goes
out, repeat steps 5 through 9.
•If the knob does not pop up when released,
stop and immediately call your service technician
or gas supplier.
•If the pilot will not stay lit after several tries,
turn the gas control knob to "OFF" and call your
service technician or gas supplier.
