give off some expansion and/or contraction noises
during the start up or cool down cycle. Similar
noises are found with your furnace heat exchanger
or car engine.
IMPORTANT:
PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING CAREFULLY
It is not unusual for gas fi replaces to give off some
odor the fi rst time it is burned. This is due to the
manufacturing process.
Please ensure that your room is well ventilated
during burn off — open all windows.
It is recommended that you burn your fi replace for
at least ten (10) hours the fi rst time you use it. Place
the fan switch in the “OFF” position during this time.
Never connect unit to private
