7.0 OPERATION

IF YOU DO NOT FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS EXACTLY, A FIRE OR EXPLOSION MAY RESULT

CAUSING PROPERTY DAMAGE, PERSONAL INJURY OR LOSS OF LIFE.

Ensure that a continuous gas fl ow is at the burner before installing the door. When lit for the fi rst time, the
fi replace will emit an odor 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. After extended periods of
non-operation such as following a vacation or a warm weather season, the fi replace may emit a slight odor for
a few hours. This is caused by dust particles in the heat exchanger burning off. In both cases, open a window
to suffi ciently ventilate the room.

A. This fi replace is equipped with an ignition device which automatically lights the pilot. Do not try to light

by hand.

B. Before operating smell all around the fi replace area for gas and next to the fl oor because some gas is

heavier than air and will settle on the fl oor.

C. Do not use this fi replace if any part has been under water. Immediately call a qualifi ed service techni-

cian to inspect the fi replace and replace any part of the control system and any gas control which has
been under water.

• Turn off all gas to the fi replace.

• Open windows.

• Do not try to light any appliance.

• Do not touch any electric switch; do not use
any phone in your building.

!

This model has an air shutter that has been factory set open according to the chart below:

Closing the air shutter will cause a more yellow fl ame, but can lead to carboning.
Opening the air shutter will cause a more blue fl ame, but can cause fl ame lifting
from the burner ports. The fl ame may not appear yellow immediately; allow 15
to 30 minutes for the fi nal fl ame color to be established.

MAINTENANCE

TURN OFF THE GAS AND ELECTRICAL POWER BEFORE SERVICING THE APPLIANCE.

APPLIANCE MAY BE HOT, DO NOT SERVICE UNTIL APPLIANCE HAS COOLED.

DO NOT USE ABRASIVE CLEANERS.

CAUTION: Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls. Wiring errors can cause improper

and dangerous operation. Verify proper operation after servicing. This appliance and its venting system
should be inspected before use and at least annually by a qualifi ed service person. The appliance area must
be kept clear and free of combustible materials, gasoline or other fl ammable vapors and liquids. The fl ow of
combustion and ventilation air must not be obstructed.

1. In order to properly clean the burner and pilot assembly, remove the logs, rocks and/or glass to

expose both assemblies.

2. Keep the control compartment, media, 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 fl ame is large enough to engulf the fl ame sensor and/or thermocouple /

thermopile as well as reaches the burner.

5. Replace the cleaned logs, rocks or glass. Failure to properly position the media may cause carboning

which can be distributed in the surrounding living area.

6. Check to see that the main burner ignites completely on all openings when turned on. A 5 to 10

second total light-up period is satisfactory. If ignition takes longer, consult your local authorized dealer /
distributor.

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

necessary.

8. If for any reason the vent air intake system is disassembled, re-install and re-seal per the instructions

provided for the initial installation.

• Visually inspect the appliance for carbon buildup.

GASKET*

GLASS

When replacing DO NOT SUBSTITUTE MATERIAL, re-

place the gasket (W562-0008) and the glass (W300-0110).
Set new glass into the frame and gently bend tabs into the
gasket to secure.

9.3 CARE OF STAINLESS STEEL

Stainless steel tends to oxidize or stain in the presence of chlorides and sulfi des, particularly in coastal areas
and other harsh environments, such as the warm, highly humid atmosphere around pools and hot tubs. These
stains could be perceived as rust, but can be easily removed or prevented. To provide stain prevention and
removal, wash all stainless steel surfaces every 3-4 weeks or as often as required with fresh water and/or
stainless steel cleaner.

CLEANING THE STAINLESS STEEL SURFACE:

Do not use abrasive cleaners or steel wool on the stainless steel parts. Doing so will scratch the fi nish. Sur-
faces should be cleaned with warm soapy water while the metal is still warm to the touch. To clean stainless
surfaces, use a stainless steel or non-abrasive cleaner. Always wipe in the direction of the grain. Over time,
stainless steel parts discolour when heated, usually to a golden or brown hue. This discolouration is normal
and does not affect the performance of the appliance.
