Starting the Heater for the First Time

Cleaning Gold Surfaces

Fingerprints or other marks left on gold surfaces may become etched in place if they are not wiped
clean prior to turning the stove on. Clean gold surfaces with denatured alcohol and a soft cloth when
the heater is cold.

Fumes from the Painted Surfaces Curing

Burn the heater at a medium setting for approximately one hour the first time. This will cure the
painted surfaces. Fumes from the paint curing and oil burning off the steel may occur. This is
normal. We recommend you open the window to vent the room.

Condensation

Water may appear on the glass each time you start the heater - this is normal.

Blue Flames

The flames will be blue when first started. After fifteen minutes the flames will turn a more realistic
yellow and orange color.

N o t e :

If the heater turns on and off frequently while using the thermostat, you may want to
adjust the flame height down until it produces just enough heat needed.

Adjusting the Flame Height

Your heater has an adjustable flame to tailor the look and heat output to your specific needs. It is
adjusted by turning the middle dial on the gas control valve.
