INTRODUCTION

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

THIS GAS FIREPLACE SHOULD BE INSTALLED AND SERVICED BY A QUALIFIED INSTALLER to conform 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 CAN/CGA B149 Installation Code in Canada or to the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1, and NFPA 54 in the United S t ates. 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 5OIA in the United States.

Purge all gas lines with the glass door of the fireplace open. 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 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 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). When the fireplace is installed directly on carpeting, vinyl tile or other combustible material other than wood flooring, the fireplace shall be installed on a metal or wood panel extending the full width and depth. If the optional heat circulating blower is installed, the blower 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 NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE in the United States.

Minimum clearance to combustible construction from the fireplace:

GENERAL INFORMATION

FOR YOUR SATISFACTION, ALL BURNER ASSEMBLIES HAVE BEEN TEST-FIRED TO ASSURE THEIR OPERATIONS AND QUALITY! Maximum input is 30,000 BTU/h

for natural gas and 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. Maximum output for natural gas is 20,400 BTU/hr at an efficiency of 68% with the fan on. 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. This fireplace is approved for bedroom and bed-sitting room installations and is suitable for mobile home installation.

NO EXTERNAL ELECTRICITY (1 10 VOLTS OR 24 VOL TS) IS REQUIRED FOR THE GAS SYSTEM OPERA TION. Expan-

sion / contraction noises during heating up and cooling down cycles are normal and are to be expected. If utilizing one of Wolf Steel's trim or surround kits, follow the framing instructions on page 14 and the finishing instructions on page 23, for removal of the top extension.

CARE OF GLASS, AND PLATED PARTS

Do not use abrasive cleaners to clean these parts. Buff lightly with a clean dry cloth. The glass is 3/16" tempered glass available from your Napoleon / Wolf Steel Lt d. dealer.

Do not substitute materials.

If the door glass should crack or break, do not operate the fireplace. Replace only with a door assembly certified with the fireplace. See DOOR, LOUVRE AND TRIM INST ALLA- TION for removal and replacement details. Clean the glass after the first 10 hours of operation with a recommended gas fireplace glass cleaner. Thereafter clean as required.

Do not clean glass when hot!

If the glass is not kept clean permanent discolouration and / or blemishes may result.

Provide adequate ventilation air. Provide adequate accessibility clearance for servicing and operating the fireplace. Never obstruct the front opening of the fireplace.

For safe and proper operation of the fireplace follow the venting instruction exactly.

Provide a means for visually checking the vent connection to the fireplace after the fireplace is installed.

In order to avoid the possibility of exposed insulation or vapour barrier coming in contact with the fireplace body, it is recommended that the walls of the fireplace enclosure be “finished” (ie: drywall/sheetrock), as you would finish any other outside wall of a home. This will ensure that clearance to combustibles is maintained within the cavity.

VENTING

This is a vented appliance and must be connected to a chimney in accordance with the current installation codes. In absence of local codes, install to the current National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1, or the current CAN/CGA B149, Installation Codes. This model can be common-vented.

A minimum five inch diameter (5"ø) B-vent or class A vent is required. A minimum 5' vent height is required. Secure the B-vent to the exhaust collar on the stove top with 3 screws. In cold climates, the use of a B-vent and an insulated chase is recommended.

VENTING SAFETY SWITCH

This thermally activated switch, located in front of the draft hood, senses an increase in temperature and acts as a safety shut-off (See 'A' below). It shuts down the gas to the main burner in the event of a severe downdraft of air or a blocked or disconnected chimney flue. If the flue is blocked or has no "draw", the safety switch will automatically shut off the supply of gas to the main burner within 10 minutes.

This switch must be manually reset by depressing the plunger. Refer to Figure 2.

Tampering with the safety switch can result in carbon monoxide poisoning and possible death.

The one wire running from the vent safety switch is attached to terminal 1 of the valve (See 'B' below). The other wire (laying loose in the valve control area) may be attached to a wall switch or thermostat.

HIGH LIMIT SWITCH

This thermally activated switch, located in front of the draft hood, senses an increase in temperature and acts as a safety shut-off (See 'A' below). It shuts down the gas to the main burner in the unlikely event of the unit overheating. The HI Limit switch will automatically reset after the unit has cooled down, resuming gas flow to the main burner.

LOG PLACEMENT

PHAZERTM logs, glowing and charcoal embers, exclusive

to Napoleon fireplaces, provide a unique and realistic glowing effect that is different in every installation. Take the time to carefully position the embers for a maximum glowing effect. Figures 27 A - H.

LOCA TING PINS

1. Looking at the unit from the valve side, place log #1 diagonally across the textured burner cover onto the pins. The texture is designed to cradle the underside of the log.

LOCA TING PINS

PILOT

5. When pieces #3a and #3b are attached to create log #3, the upper end of log #3 should rest in the groove, on top of log # 2.

6. As with log # 1, log #4 is also cradled by the texture of the burner cover and the pin in the base. Position log #4 so that the lower end fits onto the pin. The upper end rests against the moulded locater on the top of log # 1.

2. Depending on the type of installation, the view of the log positioning will reverse. Here the lower end of log #2 rests near the back left corner of the firebox on the locating pin. The upper end sits on top of log #1, inside the groove on log #2.

#3a

3. Log # 3 is made up of two pieces, a and b. Piece #3a is the base of log #3. The base sits diagonally in the designated area located between logs #1 and fits tight up against #2.

4. The slot in the underside of piece #3b fits over #3a. Place the end of piece #3b onto the pin.

7. Like log #3, log #5 also comes in two pieces. The base (#5a) slopes outwards between logs #2 and #4. As with pieces #3a & b, piece #5b fits over piece #5a. Place the end of piece #5b onto the pin.

8. The upper end of log #5 rests in the groove, on top of log #4 and creates the final appearance of log set.

and place on the ported area of the burner. 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. PHAZER

logs glow when exposed to direct flame.

CHARCOAL EMBERS

Randomly place the embers around the bottom brick panels in a realistic manner but not in contact with the flames. Keep ember dust away from burner ports to avoid plugging them.

Fine dust found in bottom of bag not to be used. PHAZER

logs, and embers glow when exposed to direct flame. Use only certified PHAZERTM logs, glowing embers and charcoal embers available from your Napoleon / Wolf Steel Ltd. dealer.

OPTIONAL BLOWER INSTALLATION

THIS BLOWER IS NOT SUITABLE FOR THE 4 SIDED ISLAND INSTALLATION.

THERMODISC WIRES TO BLOWER

in accordance with local codes. In the absence of local codes, use the current CSA C22.1 C in Canada or the ANSI/NFPA 70 NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE in the United States.

Remove the blower from its mounting bracket and attach to the bracket supplied with the fireplace. This bracket is found secured on the mounting stud located at the bottom of the vent side wall.

ANADIAN ELECTRICAL CODE

FIGURE 42

The blower bracket contains two holes that allow the blower to be positioned away from the intended gas supply hole.

Position the vibration reducing pad, centred, onto the threaded stud, piercing a hole into the pad. The blower must be able to be positioned entirely onto the pad.

Tilt the blower onto its side and slide it past the controls. Position the blower under the clip and onto the stud. Secure with a wing nut.

THERMODISC BRACKET

FIGURE 44

Remove the thermodisc bracket from the top of the firebox. Remove the thermodisc from the bracket supplied in the

blower kit and install the thermodisc into the fireplace bracket. Then replace the bracket in the location it was removed.

Connect the two ends of the unattached wires by the bracket to the thermodisc.

Connect the opposite ends of the wires to the red and black leads of the blower harness.

The wire harness provided in this kit is a universal harness. When installed, ensure that any excess wire is contained, preventing it from making contact with moving or hot objects.

Drywall dust will penetrate into the blower bearings, causing irreparable damage. Care must be taken to prevent drywall dust from coming into contact with the blower or its compartment. Any damage resulting from this condition is not covered by the warranty policy.

Because the blower is thermally activated, when turned on, it will automatically start approximately 10 minutes after lighting the fireplace and will run for approximately 30 - 45 minutes after the fireplace has been turned off. Use of the fan increases the output of heat.

OPERATION / MAINTENANCE

FOR YOUR SAFETY READ BEFORE LIGHTING:

Purge the gas line with a glass door open. Assure that a continuous gas flow is at the burner before re-installing the door.

A. This fireplace is equipped with a pilot which must be lit by

hand while following these instructions exactly.

B. Before operating smell all around the fireplace area for

gas and next to the floor because some gas is heavier than air and will settle on the floor.

C. Use only your hand to turn the gas control knob. Never use

tools. If the knob will not turn by hand, do not try to repair it. Call a qualified service technician. Force or attempted repair may result in a fire or explosion.

D. Do not use this fireplace if any part has been under water.

Immediately call a qualified service technician to inspect the fireplace and replace any part of the control system and any gas control which has been under water.

• Turn off all gas to the fireplace.

• Open windows.

• Do not try to light any appliance.

• Do not touch any electric switch; do

LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS

1. Stop! Read the above safety information on this label.

2. Turn off all electric power to the fireplace.

3. Turn the gas knob clockwise to off.

4. Wait five (5) minutes to clear out any gas. If you smell

gas including near the floor. S top! Follow "B" in the above safety information on this label. If you don't smell gas go the next step.

5. Turn gas knob counter-clockwise to pilot.

6. Depress slightly and hold gas knob while lighting the

pilot with the push button ignitor. Keep knob depressed for one minute, then release. If pilot does not continue to burn, repeat steps 3 through 5.

WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS:

not use any phone in your building.

• Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbour's phone. Follow the gas supplier's instructions.

• If you cannot reach your gas supplier , call the fire department.

WARNING: The gas valve has an interlock device which will not allow the pilot burner to be lit until the thermocouple has cooled. Allow approximately 60 seconds for the thermocouple to cool. When lighting and re-lighting, the gas knob cannot be turned from pilot to off unless the knob is depressed

slightly.

7. With pilot lit, depress and turn gas knob counter-clock-

wise to on.

8. If equipped with remote on-off switch/thermostat, main burner may not come on when you turn valve to on. Remote switch must be in the on position to ignite burner.

9. Turn on all electric power to the fireplace.

1. Turn off all electric power to the fireplace if service is to be performed.

2. For a complete shut-down procedure: push in gas control knob slightly and turn clockwise to off. Do not force.

MAINTENANCE

CAUTION: Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls. Wiring errors can cause improper and dangerous operation. Verify proper operation af ter servicing. This fireplace and its venting system should be inspected before use and at least annually by a qualified service person. The fireplace area must be kept clear and free of combustible materials, gasoline or other flammable vapours and liquids. The flow of combustion and ventilation air must not be obstructed.

1. In order to properly clean the burner and pilot assembly,

remove the logs to expose both assemblies.

2. Keep the control compartment, logs, burner, air shutter open-

ing and the area surrounding the logs clean by vacuuming or brushing, at least once a year.

3. For a temporary shut-down procedure: set thermostat to lowest setting or remote switch to off. Press and turn the gas knob clockwise to pilot.

Turn off the gas and electrical power before servicing the fireplace.

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 and thermopile and reaches toward the burner with the third jet.

5. Replace the cleaned logs.

6. Check to see that the main and runner burners ignite com-

pletely on all openings when the gas knob for the burners is turned on. A 5 to 10 second total light-up period is satisfactory . If ignition takes longer, consult your Napoleon dealer / distributor.

7. Check that the gasketing on the sides, top and bottom of the door is not broken or missing. Replace if necessary.
