INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: You must operate
this fireplace with the fireplace
screen in place. Make sure fire-
place screen is installed before
running fireplace.
NOTICE: During initial operation
of new fireplace, burning logs
will give off a paper-burning
smell. Orange flame will also be
present. Open window to vent
smell. Operate fireplace on HI

4. Wait five (5) minutes to clear out any gas.

Note: You may be running this fireplace for
the first time after hooking up to gas sup-
ply. If so, the control knob may need to be
pressed in for 30 seconds or more. This will
allow air to bleed from the gas system.

after lighting pilot. After 30 seconds, release

Note: If pilot goes out, repeat steps 3
through 7. This fireplace has a safety in-
terlock system. Wait one (1) minute before
lighting pilot again.
8. Turn control knob counterclockwise
to desired heating level. The main
burner should light. Set control knob to any
heat level between HI and LO.
