WHEN STOVE IS HOT)
If the optional blower is installed, the sound of rushing air may be heard
when the blower is on. 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 come on and off.
Paint Curing
This stove has been painted with a high temperature 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 sensitive to an imbalance in the indoor air quality avoid the
stove during the curing process.
Optional Wall Thermostat
If an optional wall thermostat is to be installed, install the thermostat per
the manufacturers instructions (provided with the thermostat). Failure
to follow manufacturers instructions could result in a malfunction. Pay
special attention to the thermostat location requirements. If the loca-
tion requirements are not adhered to the appliance, erratic operation or
failure may occur.
Do not mount the thermostat where it may be affected by:
• Radiant heat from this appliance, fireplaces, sun or other heat
sources.
• Drafts or dead spots behind doors or in corners.
• Hot or cold air from ducts.
Optional Blower
An optional blower (part # 75194) may be installed on your stove to
maximize heat distribution. See your Lennox Hearth Products dealer for
blower information. The optional blower is equipped with a three-prong
(grounding) plug for your protection against shock hazard and should
be plugged directly into a properly grounded three-prong receptacle. Do
not cut or remove the grounding prong from this plug.
CAUTION: Label all wires prior to disconnection when servic-
ing controls. Wiring errors can cause improper and dangerous
operation.
ATTENTION: Au moment de l'entretien des commandes,
étiquetez tous les fils avant de les débrancher. Des erreurs
de cáblage peuvent entraîner un fonctionnement inadéquat et
dangereux.
Air Shutter Adjustment
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 down will open the shutter and turn the flames
more transparent and blue. Moving the lever up 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.

Quiet Operation
As the Vintage™ gas stove is burning, a number of normal operational
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%.
