CAUTION: Air shutter is hot while the Vision™ gas stove
is operating and should only be adjusted using a heat
resistant glove.
The air shutter control lever is located on the bottom of the
stove directly to the left of the gas valve. The lever is linked
to the primary air shutter on the main burner. The air shutter
regulates the amount of primary air the burner receives and,
therefore, how clean the stove burns. The air shutter should
only be adjusted by a qualified gas technician. The stove
should burn for about 15 minutes with the logs installed
before adjusting the air shutter. Moving the lever to the left
will open the shutter and turn the flames more transparent
and blue. Moving the lever to the right will close the shutter
and turn the flames more orange. Caution: The air shutter
should never be set so as to make the tips of the flames
sooty or create sooting on the viewing glass, logs, or firebox
ceiling. If soot begins to form after burning, the air shutter
should be opened gradually until the sooting condition
stops. Gas quality and gas pressure may vary, which can
affect the burning characteristics of the stove.

peration
As the Vision gas stove is burning, a number of normal op-
erational sounds may be heard. The flow of gas through the
gas valve and orifice may make a rushing or whistling noise.
If this noise is objectionable, it can be reduced by turning
down the flame. Turning down the flame can reduce total
heat output by more than 30%. When the blower turns on,
the sound of rushing air may be heard. The blower sounds
may be reduced by adjusting the speed control located on the
blower assembly. Also, a slight clicking sound may be heard
as the gas valve or blower switch is turned on and off.

C
uring
This stove has been painted with StoveBright high tempera-
ture metallic paint. It leaves the factory dry to the touch, but
completes the curing process as the stove is used. To cure
the paint, burn the appliance four successive times for ten
minutes each time with a five minute cool down between
each firing. Also some parts of the appliance may be lightly
coated with machining oil. Ventilate the house during these
first firings as the paint and oil give off carbon dioxide and
unpleasant odors. It is recommended that persons sensi-
tive to an imbalance in the indoor air quality avoid the stove
during the curing process.
