noncombustible insulation after gas supply line has been installed.
• If your factory-built fireplace has air passages on the face for zero capabilities, DO
NOT BLOCK THESE PASSAGES!
• Do not remove or alter the insulation or any structured rigid frame members (metal sides, floor, door frame, face of the
fireplace, etc.).
Figure 5 - Metal Fireplace Zero-Clearance Requirements
IMPORTANT:Please review the following carefully.
It is normal for inserts fabricated of steel to give off some expansion and/or contraction noises during the start up or cool
down cycle. Similar noises are found with your furnace heat exchanger or car engine.
It is not unusual for your insert to give off some odor the first time it is burned. This is due to the curing of the paint and any
undetected oil from the manufacturing process.
Please ensure that your room is well-ventilated. OPEN ALL WINDOWS DURING INITIAL BURN OFF/
CURING PHASE.
Burn your insert for a least six (6) hours on “HIGH” the first time you use it. Place fan in the “OFF” position during
this time.

Read all instructions completely and thoroughly before attempting installation. Failure
to do so could result in serious injury, property damage or loss of life. Operation of
improperly installed and maintained venting systems could result in serious injury,
property damage or loss of life.
WARNING
Failure to follow these instructions will
void the warranty.
NOTICE
INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS
Consult local building codes before beginning the installation. The installer must make sure to select the proper vent system
for installation. Before installing vent kit, the installer must read this insert manual and vent kit instructions.
Only a qualified installer/service person should install venting system. The installer must follow these safety rules:
• Wear gloves and safety glasses for protection.
• Use extreme caution when using ladders or when on rooftops.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Make sure the gas valve knob is in the “OFF” position. Wait at least five (5) minutes before starting maintenance.
VENTING SYSTEM
A qualified agency should examine the venting system annually.
CLEANING GLASS
Clean the ceramic glass periodically. Condensation will sometimes form on the glass during a cold startup. This is normal for
all gas fireplaces and inserts. This condensation often attracts
dust and lint to the surface of the glass. The initial paint curing
of the appliance can also leave a slight film on the glass. This
is a temporary problem.
Your should clean the glass after the first two weeks of use. After that, you should clean the glass no more than two or
three times a season. Use a mild glass cleaner to clean the door. Do not use abrasive cleaners. They will damage the glass
surface.
PILOT AND
BURNER FLAMES
Visually check pilot and
burner flames periodically.
See Figure 41 for typical
burner flame. See Figure
42 for typical pilot flame.
Let glass cool before cleaning. Do not
clean glass when it is hot. Damage
could occur.
