After extended periods of non-operation such as following a
vacation or a warm weather season, the fi replace may emit a
slight odour for a few hours. This is caused by dust particles in
the heat exchanger burning off. In both cases, open a window
to suffi ciently ventilate the room. Purge all gas lines with the glass door of the fi replace removed
or opened. Assure that a continuous gas fl ow is at the burner
before installing the door.
When lit for the fi rst time, the fi replace will emit a slight odour
for a few hours. This is a normal temporary condition caused
by the "burn-in" of internal paints and lubricants used in the
manufacturing process and will not occur again.
• Turn off all gas to the fi replace.
• Open windows.
• Do not try to light any appliance.
• Do not touch any electric switch; do not use any phone in your
building.
• Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbour's phone.
Follow the gas supplier's instructions.
• If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fi re depart-
ment.
GAS KNOB

tools. If the knob will not turn by hand, do not try to repair it. Call
a qualifi ed service technician. Force or attempted repair may

D. Do not use this fi replace if any part has been under water. Im-
mediately call a qualifi ed service technician to inspect the fi replace
and replace any part of the control system and any gas control
which has been under water.
