K. After Fireplace is Lit
Initial Break-in Procedure
• The fireplace should be run three to four hours continuously on high.
• Turn the fi replace off and allow it to completely cool.
• Remove fi xed glass assembly. See Section 14.I.
• Clean fi xed glass assembly. See Section 3.
• Replace the fi xed glass assembly and run continuously on high an additional 12 hours.
This cures the materials used to manufacture the fi re- place.
NOTICE! Open windows for air circulation during fi replace break-in.
• Some people may be sensitive to smoke and
odors.
• Smoke detectors may activate.
L. Frequently Asked Questions
ISSUE SOLUTIONS
Condensation on the glass
Blue fl ames
Odor from fi replace
Film on the glass
Metallic noise
This is a result of gas combustion and temperature variations. As the fi replace warms, this condensation will disappear.
This is a result of normal operation and the fl ames will begin to yellow as the fi replace is al- lowed to burn for 20 to 40 minutes.
When fi rst operated, this fi replace may release an odor for the fi rst several hours. This is caused by the curing of materials from manufacturing. Odor may also be released from nishing materials and adhesives used near the fi replace. These circumstances may require additional curing related to the installation environment.
This is a normal result of the curing process of the paint and logs. Glass should be cleaned within 3 to 4 hours of initial burning. A non-abrasive cleaner such as gas appliance glass cleaner may be necessary. See your dealer.
Noise is caused by metal expanding and contracting as it heats up and cools down, similar to the sound produced by a furnace or heating duct. This noise does not affect the operation or longevity of the fi replace.
