Locate the blower switch by opening lower
louver on fireplace. Blower switch is lo-
cated at lower right inside louver door.

The GA3650TA Series thermostat-con-
trolled blower has a variable speed con-
trol with an ON/OFF switch. The blower
will start when the thermostat senses a
sufficient increase in firebox temperature.
The GA3750 Series variable speed blower
also has an ON/OFF switch built into the
variable speed control.

Note for GA3650TA Series Only:

If

you are using GA3650TA blower, your
fireplace and blower will not turn on and
off at the same time. The fireplace may
run for several minutes before the blower
turns on. After the heater modulates to
the pilot position, the blower will con-
tinue to run. The blower will shut off after
the firebox temperature decreases.

Note:

It is safe to operate fireplace with

blower turned off. However, the blower helps
distribute heated air from the fireplace.

Follow installation instructions included
with the blower accessory.

WARNING: You must operate

this heater with the fireplace
screen in place. Make sure fire-
place screen is in place before
running heater.

NOTICE: During initial operation
of new heater, burning logs will
give off a paper-burning smell.
Open damper or window to vent
smell. This will only last a few
hours.

Because this fireplace has an electronic
ignition system, in the event there is a loss
of power, it will be necessary to manually
light the pilot with the piezo ignitor. After
the pilot is lit, the main burner will light
automatically.

1.

Follow steps 1 through 3 under Nor-
mal Lighting Instructions
, page 21.

2.

Set manual ignition bypass switch on
control panel to ON position (manual
ignition position). See Figure 52.

3.

The pilot is attached to the rear of
the front burner. You will be able to
see the pilot and spark electrode
without removing the screen or logs.

4.

Place the magnetic manual override
handle, provided with this unit, on
the end of the gas valve stem (see Fig-
ure 51).

5.

Turn the override handle fully coun-
terclockwise

to the PILOT po-

sition. The handle will not stop but
will begin to slip when you have fully
turned to the PILOT position.

6.

While holding the valve handle in the
PILOT position, press and release
piezo ignitor button (see Figure 52).
This will light the pilot. If needed,
keep pressing ignitor button until pi-
lot lights.

7.

When pilot flame is lit, hold manual
override handle until thermocouple
heats (approximately 5 to 15 sec-
onds). If pilot goes out, repeat pro-
cess. If several attempts to light the
pilot fail, contact a qualified service
person or gas supplier for repairs.
