4 Safety Precautions

IF YOU SMELL GAS:

* Do not light any appliance

* Extinguish any open flame

* Do not touch any electrical switch or plug or unplug anything

* Open windows and vacate building

* Call gas supplier from neighbor's house, if not reached, call fire department

This unit must be installed by a qualified installer to prevent the possibility of an explosion. Your dealer will know the requirements in your area and can inform you of those people considered qualified. The room heater should be inspected and cleaned before use and at least annually by a qualified service person. More frequent cleaning may be required due to excessive lint from carpeting, bedding material, etc.

The instructions in this manual must be strictly adhered to. Do not use makeshift methods or compromise in the installation. Improper installation will void the warranty and safety listing.

Look for this label:

For LPG only | Pout 11” W.C.

If the label is present, the heater is equipped for LP (propane). If the label is absent, the heater is equipped for NG (natural gas).

This heater is either approved for natural gas (NG) or for propane (LP). Burning the incorrect fuel will void the warranty and safety listing and may cause an extreme safety hazard. Direct questions about the type of fuel used to your dealer. Check the label and flame adjust knob on the gas control valve.

Gas

Contact your local buildin officials to obtain a permit and information on any installation restrictions or inspection requirements in your area. Notify your insurance company of this heater as well.

It is imperative that control compartments, screens, or circulating air passageways of the heater be kept clean and free of obstructions. These areas provide the air necessary for safe operation.

Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable liquids in the vicinity of this heater.

If the flame becomes sooty, dark orange in color, or extremely tall, do not operate the heater. Call your dealer and arrange for proper servicing.

Do not operate the heater if it is not operating properly in any fashion or if you are uncertain. Call your dealer for a full explanation of your heater and what to expect.

Do not operate if any portion of the heater was submerged in water or if any corrosion occurs. Immediately call a qualified service technician to inspect the appliance and to replace any part of the control system and any gas control that has been under water.

Safety Precautions 5

Do not place clothing or other flammable items on or near the heater. Because this heater can be controlled by a thermostat there is a possibility of the heater turning on and igniting any items placed on or near it.

The viewing glass should be opened only for lighting the pilot or conducting service. Do not operate with cracked, broken, or removed glass.

Any safety screen or guard removed for servicing must be replaced prior to operating the heater.

Operate the heater accordin to the instructions included in this manual.

If the main burners do not start correctly turn the gas off at the gas control valve and call your dealer for service.

Light the heater using the builtin piezo igniter. Do not use matches or any other external device to light your heater.

Allow the heater to cool before carrying out any maintenance or cleaning.

Never remove, replace, modify or substitute any part of the heater unless instructions are given in this manual. All other work must be done by a trained technician. Don't modify or replace orifices.

The pilot flame must contact the thermopile and thermocouple (see the illustration to the left). If it does not, turn the gas control valve to "OFF" and call your dealer.

This unit is not for use with solid fuel

Do not place anything inside the firebox (except the included fiber logs).

If the fiber logs become damaged, replace with Travis Industries log set.

Children and adults should be alerted to the hazards of high surface temperature and should stay away to avoid burns or clothing ignition. Young children should be supervised when they are in the same room as the heater.

Instruct everyone in the house how to shut gas off to the appliance and at the gas main shutoff valve. The gas main shutoff valve is usually next to the gas meter or propane tank and requires a wrench to shut off.

This Manual

Do not throw this manual away. This manual has important operating and maintenance instructions that you will need at a later time. Always follow the instructions in this manual.

Travis Industries, Inc. grants no warranty, implied or stated, for the installation or maintenance of your heater, and assumes no responsibility of any consequential damage(s).

6 Operation

Before You Begin

• Read this entire manual before you use your new fireplace (especially the section "Safety

Precautions" on pages 4 & 5). Failure to follow the instructions may result in property damage, bodily injury, or even death.

Location of Controls

The Pilot Flame can be found under the right side log .

Pilot Igniter

ON/OFF Switch

Gas Control Valve

Optional Blower Control Optional Accent Light

Comfort Control

Lift the control cover up and swing it forward to access the controls.

Flame Adjust Knob

An instruction card for operating the fireplace is attached to the inside of the fireplace here. Replace it for easy reference.

Gas Control Knob

Pilot Igniter The pilot igniter is used only to start the pilot. When pressed, it sends an

electrical charge to the pilot assembly. This creates a blue spark directly next to the pilot, igniting the pilot flame.

On/Off Switch This control is used to turn the fireplace burners on and off.

Gas Control Knob This knob is used to control gas to the fireplace and for starting the pilot.

There are three positions, ON, OFF, & PILOT. The pointer to the left of the knob indicates the position this knob is in.

Flame Adjust Knob This knob controls the flame height from low ("LO") to high ("HI"). The

pointer above the knob points to the position this knob is in.

Comfort Control This lever turns the rear burner on and off.

NOTE: THIS IS NOT A SHUTOFF VALVE.

Optional Blower Control This knob controls the speed of the optional internal convection blower

that pushes heated air into the room.

Optional Accent Light This knob controls the optional accent lights located behind the logs.

Starting The Pilot Flame

The pilot flame is required to ignite the main burners (it also plays a safety role). It should be left on once lit. It will stay lit unless the gas control valve is turned to "OFF". However, the pilot will go out if the gas is shut off, the propane tank runs out (or low) or if the stove malfunctions. If the pilot turns off frequently, call your dealer for information. To start the pilot follow the directions below:

WARNING: When lighting or re-lighting the pilot, the

glass must be removed (see page 10).

a Remove the glass (see page 10 for

details).

Operation 7

5 minutes

b Push the gas control knob in slightly and

turn it to the "OFF" position. The knob will not turn from "ON" to "OFF" unless the knob is depressed slightly. Wait five minutes to let any gas that may have accumulated inside the firebox escape. If you smell leaking gas, follow the directions on the cover "IF YOU SMELL GAS".

c Turn the gas control knob to the "PILOT"

position and press the knob in, this will allow gas to flow to the pilot light. Press the button on the pilot igniter repeatedly until you see the pilot light.

WARNING: If the pilot does not light after 15 seconds,

release the knob and call your dealer for service. Do not attempt to light pilot until service has been performed.

NOTE: You may wish to remove the log set to gain

a better view of the pilot (see page 15).

d Keep the gas control knob depressed for

30 seconds once it is lit.

e Release the gas control knob. If the pilot

goes out, repeat step C. If the pilot refuses to stay lit, call your dealer for service. With the pilot lit, proceed to step “f”.

f Replace the glass.

g Turn the gas control knob counter-

clockwise to "ON". The pilot is now lit and the heater can be turned on and off.

8 Operation

Starting the Fireplace for the First Time

• Burn the heater at a high setting with the blower off for an extended period (up to 48 hours).

This will cure the painted surfaces. Fumes from the paint curing and oil burning off the steel will occur. This is normal. We recommend opening a window to vent the room.

• Condensation may appear on the glass each time you start the fireplace - this is normal.

• Blue Flames will occur on the fireplace when it first comes on. After fifteen minutes the flames

will turn a more realistic yellow and orange color.

• Certain installations use a remote "wall switch" to turn the fireplace on and off. If this is the

case, leave the ON/OFF switch "ON".

A switch is provided behind the control cover (below the firebox).

A wall switch may be used to turn the fireplace on and off.

An optional remote may be used (see the instructions included with the remote).

An optional wall thermostat may be used to control the temperature.

NOTE FOR REMOTES, THERMOSTATS, OR WALL SWITCHES: The on/off switch on the fireplace may be required to be left in the ON or OFF position for the fireplace

to operate. Consult your installer or dealer for details.

• Do not place any combustible items on top of or directly in front of the fireplace, even

temporarily. The optional thermostat may start the fireplace causing a combustible item to ignite.

• If the fireplace turns on and off frequently while using the thermostat, you may want to adjust

the flame height down until it produces just enough heat needed.

Adjusting the Flame Height

• Your fireplace has an adjustable flame to tailor the look and heat output to your specific needs.

It is adjusted by turning the middle dial on the gas control valve.
