Starting the Fireplace for the First Time
•
Burn the heater at a high setting with the blower off for an extended period (up to 48 hours).
This will cure the painted surfaces. Fumes from the paint curing and oil burning off the steel
will occur. This is normal. We recommend opening a window to vent the room.
•
Condensation may appear on the glass each time you start the fireplace - this is normal.
•
Blue Flames will occur on the fireplace when it first comes on. After fifteen minutes the flames
will turn a more realistic yellow and orange color.
•
Certain installations use a remote "wall switch" to turn the fireplace on and off. If this is the
case, leave the ON/OFF switch "ON".

NOTE FOR REMOTES, THERMOSTATS, OR WALL SWITCHES:
The on/off switch on the fireplace may be required to be left in the ON or OFF position for the fireplace
to operate. Consult your installer or dealer for details.
•
Do not place any combustible items on top of or directly in front of the fireplace, even
temporarily. The optional thermostat may start the fireplace causing a combustible item to
ignite.
•
If the fireplace turns on and off frequently while using the thermostat, you may want to adjust
the flame height down until it produces just enough heat needed.
Adjusting the Flame Height
•
Your fireplace has an adjustable flame to tailor the look and heat output to your specific needs.
It is adjusted by turning the middle dial on the gas control valve.
