C. After Appliance is Lit
Initial Break-in Procedure
When you light the appliance, you may notice that it produces heat which does have an associated odor or smell.
If you feel this odor is excessive it may require the initial
three to four hour continuous burn on high followed by a
second burn up to 12 hours to fully drive off any odor from
paint and lubricants used in the manufacturing process.
Condensation of the glass is normal.
CAUTION
• Prevent accidental appliance operation when not
attended.
• Unplug or remove batteries from remote control if absent
or if appliance will not be used for an extended period of
time.
• Property damage possible from elevated temperatures.
NOTE: The appliance should be run three to four hours
on the initial start-up. Turn it off and let it cool completely.
Remove and clean the glass. Replace the glass and run
the appliance for an additional 12 hours. This will help to
cure the products used in the paint and logs.
During this break-in period it is recommended that some
windows in the house be opened for air circulation. This will
help avoid setting off smoke detectors, and help eliminate any
odors associated with the appliance’s initial burning.
WARNING
Fire Risk.
High Temperatures.
Keep combustible household items away from
appliance.
Do NOT obstruct combustion and ventilation air.
• Do NOT place combustible items on top of or
in front of appliance.
• Keep furniture, draperies away from

This is a result of gas combustion and temperature variations. As the appliance warms, this
condensation will disappear.
This is a result of normal operation and the fl ames will begin to yellow as the appliance is al-
lowed to burn for 20 to 40 minutes.
When fi rst operated, this appliance may release an odor for the fi rst several hours. This is
caused by the curing of the paint and the burning off of any oils remaining from manufacturing.
If appliance has not been used for some time, dust can build up and cause an odor.
This is a normal result of the curing process of the paint and logs. Glass should be cleaned
within 3 to 4 hours of initial burning to remove deposits left by oils from the manufacturing
process. A non-abrasive cleaner such as gas fi replace glass cleaner may be necessary. See
your dealer.
Noise is caused by metal expanding and contracting as it heats up and cools down, similar to
the sound produced by a furnace or heating duct. This noise does not affect the operation or
longevity of the appliance.

b. Thermopile may not be generating suffi cient millivoltage.
Check the ON/OFF switch and wires for proper connections. Place
the jumper wires across the terminals at the switch. If the burner
comes on, replace the defective switch. If the switch is OK, place the
jumper wires across the switch wires at the gas valve. If the burner
comes on, the wires are faulty or connections are bad.
If the pilot fl ame is not close enough physically to the thermopile,
adjust the pilot fl ame.
Be sure the wire connections from the thermopile at the gas valve
terminals are tight and that the thermopile is fully inserted into the
pilot bracket.
Check the thermopile with a millivolt meter. Take the reading at
TH-TP&TP terminals of the gas valve. The meter should read 325
millivolts minimum, while holding the valve knob depressed in the
pilot position, with the pilot lit, and the ON/OFF switch in the OFF
position. Replace the faulty thermopile if the reading is below the
specifi ed minimum.
With the pilot in the ON position, disconnect the thermopile leads
from the valve. Take a reading at the thermopile leads. The reading should be 325 millivolts minimum. Replace the thermopile if the
