INTRODUCTION
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS GENERAL INFORMATION
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 States. 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 fireplace and vent surfaces:

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 bathroom, bedroom and bed­sitting room installations and is suitable for mobile home installation
NO EXTERNAL ELECTRICITY (110 VOLTS OR 24 VOLTS) IS REQUIRED FOR THE GAS SYSTEM OPERATION. 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 Ltd. 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 INSTALLA- 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. Deviation from the minimum vertical vent length can create difficulty in burner start-up and/or carboning. 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
VENTING LENGTHS
Use only Wolf Steel or Simpson Dura-Vent Model DV-GS venting components. Minimum and maximum vent lengths, for both horizontal and vertical installations, and air termi­nal locations for either system are set out in this manual and must be adhered to. For Simpson Dura-Vent, follow the installation procedure provided with the venting com­ponents.
When using Wolf Steel venting components, use only ap­proved Wolf Steel rigid / flexible components with the fol­lowing termination kits: WALL TERMINAL KIT GD422, or 1/12 TO 7/12 PITCH ROOF TERMINAL KIT GD410, 8/12 TO 12/12 ROOF TERMINAL KIT GD411, FLAT ROOF TERMI- NAL KIT GD412 or PERISCOPE KIT GD401 (for wall pen- etration below grade). With flexible venting, in conjunction with the various terminations, use either the 5 foot vent kit GD420 or the 10 foot vent kit GD430.
Wolf Steel rigid and flexible venting systems must not be combined.
Wolf Steel and Simpson Dura-Vent venting systems
must not be combined.
These vent kits allow for either horizontal or vertical venting of the fireplace. The maximum allowable horizontal run is 20 feet. The maximum allowable vertical vent length is 40 feet. The maximum number of 5" vent connections is two horizontally or three vertically (excluding the fireplace and the air terminal connections) when using aluminum flex­ible venting.
For optimum flame appearance and fireplace perform­ance, keep the vent length and number of elbows to a minimum.
The air terminal must remain unobstructed at all times. Examine the air terminal at least once a year to verify that it is unobstructed and undamaged.
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.
Nine (9") inches is the minimum bend radius allowed for the 8" diameter flexible liner.
For optimum performance it is recommended that all horizontal runs have a 1 inch rise per foot when using Napoleon flexible vent components.
A terminal shall not terminate directly above a sidewalk or paved driveway which is located between two sin­gle family dwellings and serves both dwellings. Local codes or regulations may require different clearances.
Do not allow the inside liner to bunch up on horizontal or vertical runs and elbows. Keep it pulled tight. A 1¼" air gap all around between the inner liner and outer liner is required for safe operation. Use a firestop when pen­etrating interior walls, floor or ceiling.
Horizontal runs may have a 0 inch rise per foot in all cases using SIMPSON DURA-VENT or NAPOLEON RIGID OR FLEXIBLE venting components when vent­ing.
A clearance to combustibles of 1" all around the vent pipe is required.

FRAMING
See Page 18 for additional framing dimensions. Note: 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. It is best to frame your fireplace after it is positioned and the vent system is installed. Use 2x4's and frame to local building codes.

COUNTERTOP / BAR INSTALLATION
When finishing the fireplace, combustible material may rest directly on of the top extension. In order to achieve a countertop or bar type appearance with the minimum height allowed, framing must be non-combustible and may be done with metal studding attached to the top extension sides or the upper frame of the fireplace.
FIGURE 16
A = 22 " minus finishing material thickness each side.
To install the fireplace face flush with the finished wall, position the framework to accommodate the thickness of the finished wall.
FIGURE 15
Care should be taken to maintain sufficient clearance for the vent installation. A horizontal vent installation requires a minimum height of 39½" using rigid or 43" using flexible vent pipe. (including the 1" clearance to combustibles).
* The top extension may be removed if non-combustible
framing is faced with a non-combustible material placed flush with the front face of the unit and extending from the top of the unit. (Example: cement board) (not supplied). Combustible counter / bar tops must maintain a minimum of 38 inches from the base of the fireplace to the underside of the top.

Mark and cut the vent pipe shield to the determined depth of the combustible wall. Apply a bead of caulking (not sup­plied) to the framework or to the shield plate (in the case of a finished wall) and secure the shield through the opening to the interior wall. The final location of the vent pipe shield
should maintain the required clearance to the 8" vent pipe / liner. Do not fill this cavity with any type of material.
Apply a bead of caulking all around and place a firestop spacer over the vent shield to restrict cold air from being drawn into the room or around the fireplace. Ensure that both spacer and shield maintain the required clearance to combustibles. Once the vent pipe / liner is installed in its final position, apply sealant between the pipe / liner and the firestop spacer.

DO NOT FILL THIS SPACE WITH ANY TYPE OF MATERIAL.
A vent pipe shield will prevent any materi­als such as insula­tion, from filling up the 1" air space around the pipe. Nail headers between the joist for extra support.
2. Apply a bead of caulking (not supplied) to the framework or to the Wolf Steel vent pipe shield plate or equivalent (in the case of a finished ceiling), and secure over the open­ing in the ceiling. A firestop must be placed on the bottom of each framed opening in a roof or ceiling that the venting system passes through. Apply a bead of caulking all around and place a firestop spacer over the vent shield to restrict cold air from being drawn into the room or around the fire­place. Ensure that both spacer and shield maintain the required clearance to com­bustibles. Once the vent pipe / liner is installed in its final position, apply sealant between the pipe / liner and the firestop spacer.
3. In the attic, after the pipe / liner has been installed, slide the vent pipe collar down to cover up the open end of the shield and tighten. This will prevent any materi­als, such as insulation, from filling up the 1" air space around the pipe.

USING FLEXIBLE VENT COMPONENTS
Use only approved aluminum flexible liner kits marked:
FIGURE 33
"Wolf Steel Approved Venting" as identified by the stamp only on the 8” outer liner.
For safe and proper operation of the fireplace, follow the venting instructions exactly.
HORIZONTAL AIR TERMINAL INSTALLATION
1. Stretch the 5" diameter aluminum flexible liner to the required length taking into account the additional length needed for the finished wall surface. Apply a heavy bead of the high temperature sealant, supplied with the unit, to the inside of the 5" liner approximately 1" from the end. Slip the liner a minimum of 2" over the fireplace vent collar and secure with 3 #8 screws.
2. Using the 8" diameter flexible aluminum liner, apply seal­ant, slide a minimum of 2" over the fireplace combustion air collar and secure with 3 #8 screws.
For optimum performance, it is recommended that horizontal runs have a minimum ¼ inch rise per
foot .
5. From outside, apply a bead of the high temperature seal­ant to the inside of both liners, approximately 1" from the end of each liner.
5. Holding the air terminal (lettering in an upright, readable position), insert into both liners with a twisting motion to ensure that both the terminal sleeves engage into the lin­ers / sealant. Secure the terminal to the exterior wall and make weather tight by sealing with caulking (not supplied).
6. If more liner needs to be used to reach the fireplace, couple them together as illustrated. The vent system must be supported approximately every 3 feet for both vertical and horizontal runs. Use Napoleon support ring assembly W010-0380 or equivalent noncombustible strapping to maintain the minimum 1" clearance to combustibles.
FIGURE 34
The air teminal may be recessed into the exterior wall or siding by 1½", the depth of the return flange.
FIGURE 35
3. Insert the liners through the firestop. Position and se­cure the fireplace using the nailing tabs (2 per side) and/or secure to the floor using screws inserted through the two ¼" diameter holes in the front left and right corners of the base. The liners should be flush with the exterior wall.
VERTICAL AIR TERMINAL INSTALLATION
1. Fasten the roof support to the roof using the screws provided. The roof support is optional. In this case the venting is to be adequately supported us­ing either an alternate method suitable to the au­thority having jurisdiction or the optional roof support.
FIGURE 37
vertically and plumb. Attach the air terminal assembly to the roof support, ensuring that a minimum 16" of air termi­nal will penetrate the roof when fastened.
DO NOT CLAMP THE FLEXIBLE ALUMINUM LINER.
2. Stretch the 5" diameter alumi­num flexible liner to the required length. Slip the liner a minimum of 2" over the inner sleeve of the air terminal and secure with 3 #8 screws. Seal using a heavy bead of the high temperature sealant.
3. Repeat using 8" diameter alu­minum flexible liner.
5. Thread the air terminal pipe assembly down through the roof. The air terminal must be located
FIGURE 36

5. Remove nails from the shingles, above and to the sides of the chimney. Place the flashing over the air terminal and slide it underneath the sides and upper edge of the shingles. Ensure that the air terminal is properly centered within the flashing, giving a 3/5" margin all around. Fasten to the roof. Do not nail through the lower portion of the flashing. Make weather-tight by sealing with caulking. Where possible, cover the sides and top edges of the flash­ing with roofing material.
6. Apply a heavy bead of weatherproof caulking 2 inches above the flashing. Slide the storm collar around the air terminal and down to the caulking. Tighten to ensure that a weather-tight seal between the air terminal and the collar is achieved. Attach the other storm collar centered between the air intake and the air exhaust slots onto the air termi­nal. Tighten securely. Attach the vertical rain cap.
Spacers are attached to the 5" inner flex liner at prede­termined intervals to maintain a 1-1/5" air gap to the 8" outer liner. These spacers must not be removed.
USING RIGID VENT COMPONENTS
For optimum performance it is recommended that all horizontal runs have a ¼ inch rise per foot. For safe and proper operation of the fireplace, follow the venting instructions exactly.
The vent system must be supported approximately every 3 feet for both vertical and horizontal runs. Use Napoleon vent spacers W615-0033 every 3 feet and on either side of each elbow to maintain the minimum 1¼" clearance be­tween the outer and inner vent pipes. Use Napoleon sup­port ring assembly W010-0380 or equivalent noncombus­tible strapping to maintain the minimum 1" clearance to combustibles for both vertical and horizontal runs.
HORIZONTAL AIR TERMINAL INSTALLATION
1. Move the fireplace into position. Measure the vent length required between terminal and fireplace taking into account the additional length needed for the finished wall surface and any 1¼" overlaps between venting compo-
nents.
2. Apply high temperature sealant to the outer edge of the 5" inner collar of the fireplace. Attach the first vent compo­nent and secure using 3 self tapping screws. Repeat us­ing 8" piping.
3. Holding the air terminal (lettering in an upright, readable position), insert into both vent pipes with a twisting motion to ensure that both the terminal sleeves engage into the vent pipes and the sealant. Secure the terminal to the exte­rior wall and make weather tight by sealing with caulking (not supplied). The air teminal may be recessed into the
exterior wall or siding by 1½", the depth of the return flange.
FIGURE 40
7. If more liner needs to be used to reach the fireplace, couple them together as illustrated. The vent system must be supported approximately every 3 feet for both vertical and horizontal runs. Use Wolf Steel support ring assembly W010- 0370 or equivalent noncombustible strapping to maintain a clearance to combustibles of 1".
FIREPLACE VENT CONNECTION
1. Install the 5 inch diameter aluminum flexible liner to the fire­place. Secure with 3 screws and flat washers. Seal the joint and screw holes using the high temperature sealant provided.
2. Install the 8 inch diameter aluminum flexible liner to the fireplace. Attach and seal the joints.
VERTICAL AIR TERMINAL INSTALLATION
1. Move the fireplace into position.
2. Fasten the roof support to the roof using the screws
provided. The roof support is optional. In this case the vent­ing is to be adequately supported using either an alternate method suitable to the authority having jurisdiction or the optional roof support.
3. Apply high temperature sealant to the outer edge of the inner sleeve of the air terminal. Slip a 5" diam­eter coupler a minimum of 2" over the sleeve and secure using 3 screws.
5. Apply high temperature sealant to the outer edge of the of the out­side sleeve of the air terminal. Slip a 8" diameter coupler over the sleeve and secure as before.Trim the 8" coupler even with the 5" coupler end.
5. Thread the air terminal pipe assembly down through the roof support and attach, ensuring that a minimum 16" of air terminal will penetrate the roof when fastened. If the
attic space is tight, we recommend threading the Wolf Steel vent pipe collar or equivalent loosely onto the air terminal assembly as it is passed through the attic. The air terminal must be located vertically and plumb.
6. Remove nails from the shingles, above and to the sides
of the chimney. Place the flashing over the air terminal and slide it underneath the sides and upper edge of the shingles. Ensure that the air terminal is properly centered within the flashing, giving a 3/5" margin all around. Fasten to the roof. Do NOT nail through the lower portion of the flashing. Make weather-tight by sealing with caulking. Where possible, cover the sides and top edges of the flashing with roofing material.

8. Apply a heavy bead of waterproof caulking 2 inches above the flashing. Slide the storm collar around the air terminal and down to the caulking. Tighten to ensure that a weather­tight seal between the air terminal and the collar is achieved. Attach the other storm collar centered between the air intake and air exhaust slots onto the air terminal. Tighten securely. Attach the rain cap.
8. Continue adding rigid venting sections, sealing and securing as above. Attach a 5" collapsed telescopic pipe to the last section of rigid piping. Secure with screws and seal. Repeat using a 8" telescopic pipe.
9. Run a bead of high temperature sealant around the outside of the 5" elbow. Pull the adjustable pipe a mini­mum 2" onto the elbow. Secure with 3 screws. Repeat with the 8" telescopic pipe.
10. In the attic, slide the vent pipe collar down to cover up the open end of the shield and tighten. This will prevent any materials, such as insulation, from filling up the 1" air space around the pipe.
It is best to frame your fireplace after it is positioned and the vent system is installed. Use 2x4's and frame to local building codes.
See PAGE 14 for bar type / countertop installation.
GAS INSTALLATION
1. Move the fireplace into position and secure to the floor
using #10 hex head screws (not supplied).
2. Route a 3/8" N.P.T. black iron gas line, 1/2" type-L
copper tubing or equivalent to the fireplace.
3. For ease of accessibility, an optional remote wall switch or millivolt thermostat may be installed in a conven­ient location. Route 2-strand (solid core) millivolt wire through the electrical hole located at the bottom left side of the unit.
The recommended maximum lead length depends on
wire size:

GLOWING EMBERS
Tear the embers into small pieces 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 mate-
rial 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. PHAZERTM 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
INSTALLATION TO BE DONE BY A QUALIFIED IN­STALLER and 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.
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.
FIGURE 60
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.

Remove the "Z" shaped mounting bracket secured to the burner, by the pilot. Remove the thermodisc from the bracket supplied in the blower kit and attach to the mounting bracket. Attach the connectors from the black and white wires to the thermodisc.
Do not overtighten thermodisc or distort housing.
Attach the connectors from the black and red wires to the blower. Attach and secure the variable speed switch using the nut provided. Plug the harness cord into the receptacle.
FIGURE 62
FIGURE 63
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
When lit for the first time, the fireplace will emit a slight odour for a few hours. This is a normal temporary condi­tion caused by the curing of the logs and the "burn-in" of internal paints and lubricants used in the manufacturing process and will not occur again. Simply open a window to sufficiently ventilate the room.
FOR YOUR SAFETY READ BEFORE LIGHTING:
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.
After extended periods of non-operation such as following a vacation or a warm weather season, the fireplace may emit a slight odour for a few hours. This is caused by dust particles in the heat exchanger burning off.
Purge the gas line with a glass door open. Assure that a continuous gas flow is at the burner before re-install­ing the door.

LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
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.
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. Stop! Follow "B" in the above safety information on this label. If you don't smell gas go the next step.
TO TURN OFF GAS
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
Turn off the gas and electrical power before servicing the
fireplace.
CAUTION: Label all wires prior to disconnection when servic­ing controls. Wiring errors can cause improper and dangerous operation. Verify proper operation after 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 open­ing and the area surrounding the logs clean by vacuuming or brushing, at least once a year.
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.
7. With pilot lit, depress and turn gas knob counter-clock­wise 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.
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.
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.

ADJUSTMENTS
PILOT BURNER ADJUSTMENT
Adjust the pilot screw to provide properly sized flame. Turn in a clockwise direction to reduce the gas flow.
FIGURE 64
FIGURE 65
WARNING: This is a fast act­ing thermocouple. It is an in­tegral safety component. Replace only with a fast act­ing thermocouple supplied by Wolf Steel Ltd.
VENTURI ADJUSTMENT
Natural gas models have air shutters set at 1/4 (.250") inch open. Propane gas models have air shutters set at 7/16 (.437) inch open. Closing the air shutter will cause a more yellow flame, but can lead to carboning. Opening the air shutter will cause a more blue flame, but can cause flame lifting from the burner ports. The flame may not appear yellow immediately; allow 15 to 30 minutes for the final flame colour to be established.
FIGURE 66
AIR SHUTTER ADJUSTMENT MUST ONLY BE DONE BY A QUALIFIED GAS INSTALLER!
RESTRICTING VERTICAL VENTS
Vertical installations may display a very active flame.If this appearance is not desirable,the vent exit must be restricted using the optional restrictor vent kit, RP40-KT. This will
reduce the velocity of the exhaust gases,slowing down the flame pattern and creating a more traditional gentle appearance. Specific instructions are included with the kit.
