Step 11. Before Lighting the Fireplace
Before lighting the fi replace, be sure to do the following:
Remove all paperwork from underneath the fi replace.
Review safety warnings and cautions
• Read the Safety and Warning Information section at
the beginning of this Installers Guide.
Double-check for gas leaks
• Before lighting the fi replace, double-check the unit for
possible gas leaks.
Double-check vent terminations and front grilles for
obstructions.
• Before lighting the fi replace, double-check the unit for
possible obstructions that could be blocking the vent
terminations or the front grilles.
Double-check for faulty components
• Any component that is found to be faulty MUST BE
replaced with an approved component. Tampering with
the fi replace components is DANGEROUS and voids all
warranties.
A small amount of air will be in the gas supply lines.
When fi rst lighting the fi replace, it will take a few minutes
for the lines to purge themselves of this air. Once the
purging is complete, the fi replace will light and will operate
normally.
Subsequent lightings of the fi replace will not require this
purging of air from the gas supply lines, unless the gas
valve has been turned to the OFF position, in which
case the air would have to be purged.
NOTE: The fi replace should be run 3 to 4 hours on the initial
start-up. Turn it off and let it cool completely. Remove and
clean the glass. Replace the glass and run the fi replace for
an additional 8 hours. This will help to cure the products
used in the paint and logs.

Battery Backup
This appliance may be operated on battery power in the
case of power outage. To operate the appliance turn
both the battery backup switch (right) and the main
on/off switch (left) to “on”. To conserve battery life, turn
the battery backup switch “off” when not in use.
To replace the batteries, remove the screws holding
the control panel in place and pull it out. Be careful not
to disconnect any wires in the process.
NOTE: Remotes or other powered options will not
function during a power outage.
During this break-in period it is recommended that some
windows in the house be opened for air circulation. This will
help avoid setting off smoke detectors, and help eliminate
any odors associated with the fi replace’s initial burning.
