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 the fireplace to the cur­rent National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1, or the current CAN/CGA B149, Installation Codes.
The fireplace and its individual shut off 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 shut off 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 fan or blower is installed, the junction box 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.
CARE OF GLASS, AND PLATED PARTS
Do not use abrasive cleaners to clean plated parts. Buff lightly with a clean dry cloth. The fireplace is factory equipped with 3/16" thick tempered glass. Use only replace­ment glass available from your Napoleon dealer.
Do not substitute materials.
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.
Use only accessories designed for and
listed with your specific fireplace.
Provide adequate ventilation and combustion air. Provide adequate accessibility clearance for serv­icing and operating the fireplace. Never obstruct the front opening of the fireplace.
Objects placed in front of the fireplace must be kept a minimum of 48" away from the front face of the unit.
For safe and proper operation of the fireplace fol­low the venting & operating instructions 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 and vapour barrier coming into contact with the fireplace body, it is recommended that the walls of the fireplace enclosure be 'finished' (i.e.: drywall/ sheetrock) as you would finish any other wall of the home. This will ensure that clearance to combustibles is maintained within the cavity.

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 six inch diameter (6"ø) B-vent or class A vent is required. A minimum 10' 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 insu-
VENT SAFETY SWITCH
lated chase is recommended. 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.
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

FRAMING
It is best to frame your fireplace after it is positioned. Use 2x4's and frame to local building codes. FIGURE 7-9.
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 theat clearance to combustibles is maintained within the cavity.
It is not necessary to install a hearth extension with this fireplace system.
When roughing in the fireplace, raise the fireplace to ac­commodate for the thickness of the finished floor materi­als, i.e. tile, carpeting, hard wood, which if not planned for will interfere with the opening of the lower access door and the installation of many decorative flashing accessories.
Objects placed in front of the fireplace should be kept a minimum of 4 feet away from the front face.
Minimum clearance to combustible con­struction from fireplace:
sides, back, bottom and top of the unit 0 inch recessed depth 22 inches
4. Install rigid black pipe, 1/2" type-L copper tubing or, if local codes permit, a 3/8" flex connector and shutoff valve to the gas line and the fireplace gas valve. Seal and tighten securely. An adapter fitting is required between the gas valve and the copper tubing or flex connector. DO NOT KINK
FLEXIBLE CONNECTOR. FIGURE 6.
5. Check for gas leaks by brushing on a soap and water solution.
Do not use open flame.

NAILING TAB INSTALLATION
1) Attach the nailing tabs to the corner posts using the 2 sheet metal screws sup­plied. Secure through the cen­tre of the top and bottom slots in the nailing tab and then through the existing holes in the corner posts.
NAILING TAB
If there are no existing holes, follow these instructions:
Position the nailing tab so that the front face is offset with the front edge of the corner post (approx. ½"). Centre the nailing tab vertically on the corner post.
Figure 12 a.
FIGURE11
Drill through the centre of the top and bottom slots in the nailing tab. Secure using the two sheet metal screws supplied. This allows the nailing tab to slide back and forth for desired framing. Figure 12 b.
2) To determine the final location of the nailing tab you must first determine the thickness of your finishing mate­rial (i.e. drywall). This will determine the dimension from the front edge of the corner post to the nailing tab. Once the nailing tab is in the desired location, drill through the centre hole of the nailing tab. Secure with a sheet metal screw*. Figure 12 c.
* Additional set screws may be installed.
MANTLE CLEARANCES
Combustible materials may be installed flush with the front of the fireplace but must not cover any of the black face­areas of the fireplace. Non-combustible material (brick, stone or ceramic tile) may protrude in these areas.
Combustible mantle clearance can vary according to the mantle depth. Use the graph to help evaluate the clear­ance needed. Figures 11 a & b.

LOG PLACEMENT
PHAZERTM logs and glowing 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 glowing embers for a maximum glowing effect. Log colours may vary. During the initial use of the fireplace, the colours will become more uniform as colour pigments burn in during the heat activated curing process.
FIGURES 19a-e
#1
1. Place the back log (#1) onto the log support tray and in front of the tabs. The tabs maintain an air space between the log and firebox back to facilitate combustion air flow. Ensure that the back of the log rests against the brackets on the back wall of the firebox.

burner with the holes on the bottom of the logs.
3. Tear the glowing embers into pieces and place along the front row of ports covering all of the burner area in front of the small logs (#2 & #3). 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
5. Place the bottom of the right crossover log (#6) against the right outermost grate post and the top into the pocket provided on the center log (#5).
CHARCOAL EMBERS
Randomly place the charcoal embers along the front and sides of the log support tray in a realistic manner. Fine
dust found in the bottom of the bag should not be used.
VERMICULITE
Sprinkle vermiculite around the charcoal embers.
Note: Both charcoal embers and vermiculite are not to be placed on the burner.
CHARCOAL LUMPS
Place the lumps between the logs in a realistic manner taking care not to block any of the burner ports.

OPERATION / MAINTENANCE
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
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.
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. In both cases, open a window to sufficiently ventilate the room.
Purge all gas lines with the glass door of the fireplace removed. Assure that a continuous gas flow is at the burner before installing the door.
FOR YOUR SAFETY READ BEFORE LIGHTING:
A. T his 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 wa-
ter. 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.
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.
WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS
• Turn off all gas to the fireplace.

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.
ADJUSTMENTS
PILOT BURNER ADJUSTMENT
Adjust the pilot screw to provide properly sized flame. Turn in a clockwise direction to reduce the gas flow.
13
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 burner ignites completely on
all openings when the gas knob for the burner 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.
AIR SHUTTER ADJUSTMENT MUST ONLY BE DONE
BY A QUALIFIED GAS INSTALLER!

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.
