GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
THIS GAS FIREPLACE INSERT SHOULD BE INST ALLED AND SERVICED BY A QUALIFIED INSTALLER to con-
form with local codes. Installation practices vary from re­gion to region and it is important to know the specifics that apply to your area, for example: in Massachusetts State:
• The fireplace damper must be removed or welded in the open position prior to installation of a fireplace insert or gas log.
• The appliance off valve must be a “T” handle gas cock.
• The flexible connector must not be longer than 36 inches.
• The appliance is not approved for installation in a bedroom or bathroom unless the unit is a direct vent sealed combustion product.
• WARNING: This product must be installed by a licensed plumber or gas fitter when installed within the commonwealth of
Massachusetts.
In absence of local codes, install to the current CAN1­B149 Installation Code in Canada or to the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1, and NFPA 54 in the United States. Mobile home installation must conform with local codes. In the absence of local codes, install to the current standard for gas equipped mobile housing CAN/CSA Z240 MH Series in Canada or the manufactured home construction and safety standard, Title 24 CFR, part 3280, or the Fire Safety Criteria for manufactured home installa­tions, Sites and Community Standard ANSI/NFPA 501A in the United States.
Purge all gas lines with the glass door of the fireplace insert opened. Assure that a continuous gas flow is at the burner before closing the door.
Under extreme vent configurations, allow several min­utes (5-15) for the flame to stabilize after ignition.
The fireplace insert and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa). The fireplace insert must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure test­ing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa). A 1/8 inch NPT plug, accessible for test gauge connection, must be installed immediately upstream of the gas supply connection to the fireplace insert. The fireplace insert must be electrically connected and grounded in accordance with local codes. In the absence of local codes, use the current CSA C22.1 CANADIAN ELECTRICAL CODE in Canada or the ANSI/NFPA 70-1990 NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE in the United States.

GENERAL INFORMATION
FOR YOUR SATISFACTION, THIS FIREPLACE INSERT HAS BEEN TEST-FIRED TO ASSURE ITS OPERATION AND QUALITY!
Minimum inlet gas supply pressure is 4.5 inches water column for natural gas and 11 inches water column for propane. Maximum inlet gas pressure is 7 inches water column for natural gas and 13 inches water column for propane. Manifold pressure under flow conditions is 3.5 inches water column for natural gas and 10 inches water column for propane. When the fireplace is installed at el­evations above 4,500ft, and in the absence of specific rec­ommendations from the local authority having jurisdiction, the certified high altitude input rating shall be reduced at the rate of 4% for each additional 1,000ft. Expansion / contraction noises during heating up and cool­ing down cycles are normal and to be expected.
Maximum input is 24,000 BTU/hr for natural gas and pro­pane. Maximum output for natural gas and propane is 20,400 BTU/hr at an efficiency of 85% with the fan on. Maxi­mum A.F.U.E. (annual fuel utilization efficiency) rating is 79 % for natural gas and propane. This fireplace insert is not approved for closet or recessed installations. It is ap­proved for bathroom, bedroom and bed-sitting room in­stallations and is suitable for mobile homes. The natural gas model is suitable for installation in a mobile home that is permanently positioned on its site and fuelled with natu-
ral gas. This insert must be recessed into a vented noncombus­tible wood-burning fireplace (prefabricated or masonry) only. The minimum fireplace opening size in which the heater is to be installed is:
HEIGHT 14½ inches WIDTH 25 inches DEPTH 11 inches
The minimum allowable chimney flue size is 6" round.
The minimum distance, from the bottom of a combustible mantle projecting 3" maximum from the wall to the top of the aluminium trim, is 3".

The sheet-metal parts of the fireplace, in which the gas fireplace insert is to be installed, must not be cut.
If the wood-burning factory-built fireplace has no gas access hole(s) provided, an access hole of 1½ inch or less may be drilled through the lower sides or bottom of the fireplace in a proper workman like manner. This access hole must be plugged with non-combustible in­sulation after the gas supply line has been installed.
Ensure that existing chimney cleanouts fit properly. The refractory, glass doors, screen rails, screen mesh
and log grates may be removed from the fireplace be­fore installing the gas fireplace insert.
Smoke shelves, shields and baffles may be removed if attached by mechanical fasteners.
The ventilation openings in the fireplace may be ob­structed by the backer plates, aluminium trim etc. but these parts are not to be applied so as to have an air­tight seal.

INSERT VENT CONNECTION
Move the insert close to its final position inside the wood­burning fireplace. This unit is equipped with 6 levelling screws located as follows: two are on either side of the circulation blower on the rear panel; four are located front and back on either side beneath the log support. Level using four of the levelling screws. See Figure 1a. Levelling the unit will eliminate rocking or excessive noise when the fan is in operation. Once the unit is level, move it partially into place within the fireplace to allow for all connections to be made. It is not practical to level the insert once the it has
been installed. Determine the required depth prior to in­stalling the unit and adjust the four levelling screws accord­ingly.
CHIMNEY CONNECTION
Chimney installation must conform to both national and local code requirements. The chimney must be lined with one 2" or 3" diameter liner for intake and one 3" diameter liner for exhaust. The minimum and maximum vent lengths are 10 and 35 feet respectively. Recommended Continent al kits come in 3 lengths: While the liners must be continuous from the fireplace to the terminal, to achieve the needed length, they may be coupled, using an aluminium coupler, provided installation is sealed & secured.

GDI-320KT VENT KIT 20FT GDI-325KT VENT KIT 25 FT GDI-335KT VENT KIT 35 FT
We recommend that exhaust vents that pass through unheated spaces, such as a garage or attic, be wrapped in a protective sleeve to minimize condensa­tion and reverse flow symptoms. See Trouble Shooting for details. This unit is approved for use with a 2" liner for air intake and a 3" liner for exhaust. For best performance, however, it is recommended to use two 3" liners. If a 2" liner is used for the intake, it is necessary to adjust the primary air shutter. See "Air Shutter Settings" on page 11.
1. OUTSIDE: Slip one end of a liner a minimum of 2" over one of the collars of the terminal. Se­cure using 3 screws. Then seal the joint and screw heads with high tempera­ture sealant. Repeat with the other liner.
NOTE: We recommend that the other end of the exhaust liner be marked to eliminate the exhaust liner being con­nected to the intake collar at the unit.
FIGURE 2
2. Gently stretch the liners to the required lengths and in­sert into the chimney . Place the terminal onto the top of the chimney cap and fit the flashing plate to suit. Make weather tight by sealing with caulking (not supplied) and fasten to the chimney with screws and plugs (not supplied)
3. INSIDE: Attach and secure the flex liners to the vent connection assembly using the same procedure as be­fore, ensuring that the marked exhaust liner is attached
to the exhaust collar.

WALL SWITCH / THERMOSTAT GAS INSTALLATION
For ease of accessibility, an optional remote wall switch or millivolt thermostat may be installed in a convenient location. Route 2-strand solid core millivolt wire from the gas fireplace insert to the wall switch / millivolt ther­mostat. The recommended maximum lead length de­pends on the wire size:
WIRE SIZE MAX. LENGTH
14gauge 100 feet 16gauge 60 feet 18gauge 40 feet
Do not connect either the wall switch, thermo­stat or gas valve to electricity (110 VOLTS).
Install suitable supply piping connection to the 3/8" flex
connector supplied (as per local gas codes).
FIGURE 6
The insert may now be pushed into its final posi­tion inside the wood-burn­ing fireplace. Secure the in­sert to the fireplace using perforated strapping at­tached to the two securing holes on either side of the unit as shown. We recom-
mend that the trim be in­stalled before the unit is placed into its final position.

SECURING
HOLES
FINISHING
In order to close off the fireplace opening or if the opening is larger than the 3- or 4-sided aluminium extrusion trim kits, it is recommended to reduce the opening using a non­combustible material such as ceramic tile, marble, etc or the GIZBP6-3 or GIZBP6-4 backer plate kits. The outside edge of the backer plate is finished off with gold trim in­cluded in each kit. A deluxe flashing kit complete with mar­quis trim may also be used to complete the installation. These flashing and trim combinations are available in 6 and 9 inch widths as well as many finishes to accent any room decor. Mounting brackets, GIZBRKT, are required to install the deluxe flashing. Detailed installation instructions are included with each kit. If this unit is being installed into an existing wood burning, zero clearance fireplace, then be aware of this precaution:
Any circulation air opening may be covered (with non­combustible material) but not sealed!
ALUMINIUM EXTRUSION TRIM KIT
INSTALLATION
The insert can be equipped with either a 3- or 4-sided trim kit to finish off the fire­place opening. Slide the trim assembly over the keyholes (2 per side) and drop into place. If installing the op-
tional 3- or 4-sided backer plate (GIZBP6-3 or GIZBP6-
4), it must be hung prior to the trim kit installation us­ing the same keyholes.

LOG PLACEMENT DOOR INSTALLATION
Positioning the logs improperly will cause flame im­pingement and carboning.
PHAZERTM logs and glowing embers, exclusive to Continental
Fireplaces, glow when exposed to direct flame and provide a unique and realistic glowing effect that is different in every installation. Take the time to carefully position the glowing embers for a maximum glowing effect. Use only certified
PHAZERTM logs available from your Continental / Wolf S teel
Ltd. dealer.
1. Place the rear log (#1) onto the two log supports and against the air intake pipe.

4. Tear the glowing embers into pieces and place along the front row of ports covering all of the burner area in front of the logs. Care should be taken to shred the embers into thin, small irregular pieces as only the exposed edges of the fibre hairs will glow. The ember material will only glow
when exposed to direct flame; however, care should be taken to not block the burner ports. Blocked burner ports
can cause an incorrect flame pattern, carbon deposits and delayed ignition. Log colours may vary . During the initial use of the fireplace, the colours will become more uniform as colour pigments burn in during the heat activated curing process.

OPERATION / MAINTENANCE
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
The on-off switch is located behind the left side control door.
Purge all gas lines with the glass door open. Assure that a continuous gas flow is at the burner before clos­ing the door. Allow several minutes (5-15) for the flame to stabilize after ignition.
Do not operate the main burner of the in­sert with the door removed.

When lit for the first time, the fireplace will emit a slight odour for a few hours. This is a normal temporary con­dition caused by the "burn-in" of paints and lubricants used in the manufacturing process and will not occur again. Simply open a window to sufficiently ventilate the room. After extended periods of non-operation such as following a vacation or a warm weather season, the fireplace may emit a slight odour for a few hours. This is caused by dust particles in the heat exchanger burning off. Open a window to sufficiently ventilate the room.
PURGE THE GAS LINE WITH THE GLASS DOOR OPEN.

2. Keep the control compartment, logs, burner , air shutter open­ing and the area surrounding the logs clean by vacuuming or brushing, at least once a year.
3. Check to see that all burner ports are burning. Clean out any of the ports which may not be burning or are not burning properly.
4. Check to see that the pilot flame is large enough to engulf the thermocouple on one leg and reaches toward the burner on the other leg.
5. Replace the cleaned logs.
6. Check to see that the main burner ignites completely on all
openings when the gas knob for the burner is turned on. A 5-10 second total light-up period is satisfactory. If ignition takes longer, consult your Continental dealer/distributor.
7. Check that the door gasketing is not broken or missing. Replace if necessary.

REPLACEMENT BLOWER INSTALLATION
The Napoleon gas fireplace insert comes standard with a blower, a heat sensor, variable on/off speed control and a power cord. Because the blower is thermally activated, when turned on, it will automatically start approximately 15 minutes after lighting the fireplace and will run for approxi­mately 30 minutes after the fireplace has been turned off. Use of the fan increases the output of heat. Air, drawn in through the lower slot, is driven up the back of the firebox, and exhausted as hot air through the upper slot.

5. Replace the blower using the existing bracket. Slide the vibration reducing pad (A) into the clip (C) and up against the threaded stud (B) at the other end. The blower must be able to be positioned entirely onto the pad.
Slide the blower into the clip (C). Secure to the threaded stud using the existing lock washer and wing nut. Ensure that the blower does not touch the fireplace base or the firebox.
6. Reconnect the two wires. Holding the replacement gas­ket in place, reattach the blower access door and panel. Replace the logs. Re-install the fire viewing door.
7. Turn the gas supply and electricity back on.
Drywall dust will penetrate into the blower bearings caus­ing irreparable damage and must be prevented from coming into contact with the blower or its compartment. Any damage resulting from this condition is not cov­ered by the warranty policy.

PILOT BURNER ADJUSTMENT
Remove the pilot screw cap. Adjust the pilot screw to pro­vide properly sized flame. Turn in a clockwise direction to reduce the gas flow. Replace the pilot screw cap.
FIGURE 27
VENTURI ADJUSTMENT
This unit is approved for use with a 2" liner for air intake and a 3" liner for exhaust. For best performance, however, it is recommended to use two 3" liners. Air shutter settings will differ depending on the liner sys­tem used. Use the charts below to determine the correct air shutter setting:
3"/ 3" LINER SYSTEM
NG 1
LP 3
AIR SHUTTER SETTING
2"/ 3" LINER SYSTEM

LP 5
AIR SHUTTER SETTING
Closing the air shutter will cause a more yellow flame, but can lead to carboning. Opening the air shutter will cause a more blue flame, but can cause flame lifting from the burner ports. The flame may not appear yellow immediately; allow 15 to 30 minutes for the final flame colour to be estab­lished.
Air shutter adjustment must only be done by a qualified gas installer!

VENT RESTRICTION
Some vent configurations may display a very active flame. If this appearance is not desirable, the vent exit may be re­stricted using the restrictor plate shown in FIGURE 6b. Bend the flap up as shown to reduce the velocity of the exhaust gases, slowing down the flame pattern and creating a more traditional appearance.

HELPFUL HINT :
A mirror will let you see the opening of the air shutter without removing the burner. Scribe a line along the venturi tube and air shutter cap. Open or close according to the original opening by using the scribed line as your datum.
