Step 12
Before Lighting
the Fireplace
Before lighting the fireplace, be sure to do the
following:
Remove all paperwork and documents from
underneath the fireplace.
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 fireplace, double-check the unit
for possible gas leaks.
Double-check vent terminations and front grilles
for obstructions.
• Before lighting the fireplace, 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 fireplace components is DANGEROUS and
voids all warranties.
A small amount of air will be in the gas supply lines.
When first lighting the fireplace, it will take a few
minutes for the lines to purge themselves of this air.
Once the purging is complete, the fireplace will light
and will operate normally.
The fireplace should be run for 8 hours on the initial
start-up. This will help to cure the chemicals used in
the paint and logs.
Subsequent lightings of the fireplace 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.

components. Now you’re ready to light the fireplace.
