LOCATION
In selecting the location, the aesthetic and functional use of the appliance are primary concerns.
However, vent system routing to the outside
atmosphere and access to the fuel supply are
also important. Consideration should be given to
traffic ways, furniture, draperies, etc., due to
high surface temperatures (
tion should also be free of electrical, plumbing or
other heating/air conditioning ducting.
These direct vent appliances are uniquely suited
for installations requiring a utility shelf positioned directly above the fireplace. Utility shelves
like these are commonly used for locating television sets and decorative plants.
To achieve the lowest possible shelf height, use
the alternative rear vent outlet. Do not insulate
the space between the appliance and the area
above it. See

ON END WITH GLASS PANEL)
Remove these two screws and
use them when installing
the nailing flanges.
All framing details must allow for a minimum clearance to combustible framing
members as shown in
Table 2 on page 4
Note: The CDST fireplace is installed in the
framing by cocking it at an angle, fitting the
collar side in first and then twisting and pushing
the other side in. To minimize the obstruction,
it is helpful to make sure the cap is removed
from the rear collar.
If the appliance is to be elevated above floor level,
a solid continuous platform must be constructed.
Headers may be in direct contact with the appliance top spacers but must not be supported by
them or notched to fit around them. All construction above the appliance must be self supporting,
DO NOT use the appliance for structural support.
Side Nailing Flanges
The fireplace should be secured to the framing
at the side(s) and/or rear of the unit using the
factory-provided nailing flanges. Install the
nailing flanges - 8 (CDST), 4 (CDPF, CDCL and
CDCR) - as shown in
Figure 7
using the
existing screws. Position the fireplace within
the framing. When required, the flanges may
be bent 90 degrees by hand or with the assistance of a hammer. Use wood screws to
secure the nailing flanges to the framing.

VERTICAL TERMINATION SYSTEMS (ROOF)
Figure 21, and Figures 32 through 36 on
pages 14 and 15
and their associated Vertical
Vent Tables illustrate the vertical venting configurations that are allowed to be used with these
appliances. Secure Vent pipe applications are
shown in these figures; Secure Flex pipe may
also be used.
See page 21
. A Vertical Vent Table
summarizes each system’s minimum and maximum vertical and horizontal length values that
can be used to design and install the vent components in a variety of applications.
Both these vertical vent systems terminate
through the roof. In the USA, the minimum
vent height above the roof and/or adjacent
walls is specified in ANSI Z223.1(latest edition); in Canada, by the current CAN-1 B149
installation code. It is also specified in major
building codes. Always consult your local
codes for specific requirements. A general
guide to follow is the Gas Vent Rule (refer to
Figure 4

Vertical (Offset) Installation
Analyze the vent routing and determine the
number of vent sections and elbows required.
Refer to Vertical Vent Figures and Tables onpage 14 and 15 to select the type of vertical
installation desired. Vent sections are available
in net lengths of 4 ¹⁄₂" (114 mm), 10 ¹⁄₂" (267
mm), 22 ¹⁄₂" (572 mm), 34 ¹⁄₂" (876 mm) and 46
¹⁄₂" (1181 mm). Refer to the Vent Section
Length Chart on page 11 for an aid in selecting
length combinations. Elbows are available in
45° and 90° configurations. Refer to
for the SV4.5E45 and SV4.5E90 elbow dimensional specifications.
Where required, a telescopic vent section(SV4.5LA) may be used to provide the installer
with an option in installing in tight and confined spaces or where the vent run made up of
fixed length pieces develops a joint in a undesirable location, or will not build up to the
required length. The SV4.5LA Telescopic Vent
Section has an effective length of from 1 ¹⁄₂" (38
mm) to 7 ¹⁄₂" (191 mm). The SV4.5LA is fitted
with a locking inclined channel end (identical to
a normal vent section component) and a plain
end with 3 pilot holes. Slip the plain end over
the locking channel end of a standard SV4.5
vent component the required distance and secure with three screws.
Maintain a minimum 1" (25 mm) clearance to
combustible materials for all vertical elements.
Clearances for all horizontal elements are 3"
(76 mm) on top, 1" (25 mm) on sides and 1"
(25 mm) on the bottom.
A. Frame ceiling opening - Use a plumb
line from the ceiling above the appliance to
locate center of the vertical run. Cut and/or
frame an opening, 10¹⁄₂" x 10¹⁄₂" (267mm x
267mm) inside dimensions, about this center mark

To attach a vent component to the appliance
collar, align the dimpled end over the collar,
adjusting the radial alignment until the four locking dimples are aligned with the inlet of the four
inclined channels on the collar (

. Push the vent component against the collar
until it fully engages, then twist the component
clockwise, running the dimples down and along
the incline channels until they seat at the end of the
channels. The unitized design of the SecureVent components will engage and seal both
the inner and outer pipe without the need for
sealant or screws. If desired, a #6 x ¹⁄₂" screw
may be used at the joint, but is not required as
the pipe will securely lock when twisted.
C. Attach vent components to each other - Other
vent sections may be added to the previously
installed section in accordance with the requirements of the vertical vent figures and tables. To
add another vent component to a length of vent
run, align the dimpled end over the inclined
channel end of the previously installed section,
adjusting the radial alignment until the four
locking dimples are aligned with the inlets of the
four incline channels of the previous section.
Push the vent component against the previous
section until it fully engages, then twist the
component clockwise running the dimples down
and along the incline channels until they seat at
the end of the channels.
NOTE: DIAGRAMS & ILLUSTRATIONS NOT TO SCALE.
refer to Figure
This seating position is indicated by the alignment of the arrow and dimple as shown in
Figure 24.
D. Install firestop/spacer at ceiling - When
using Secure Vent, use SV4.5VF firestop/spacer
at ceiling joists; when using Secure Flex, use
SF4.5VF firestop/spacer. If there is living space
above the ceiling level, the firestop/spacer must
be installed on the bottom side of the ceiling. If
attic space is above the ceiling, the firestop/
spacer must be installed on the top side of the
joist. Route the vent sections through the framed
opening and secure the firestop/spacer with 8d
nails or other appropriate fasteners at each
corner. Remember to maintain 1" (25 mm)
clearance to combustibles, framing members, and attic or ceiling insulation when
running vertical chimney sections. Attic insulation shield (96K94) may be used to obtain
the required clearances indicated here. See
installation accessories table on page 26.
E. Support the vertical vent run sections -
Note - Proper venting support is very impor-
tant. The weight of the vent must not be supported by the firplace in any degree.
Support the vertical portion of the venting system every 8 feet (2.4m) above the fireplace vent
outlet. One method of support is by utilizing
field provided support straps (conventional
plumber's tape). Secure the plumber's tape to
the framing members with nails or screws.
Loop the tape around the vent, securing the
ends of the tape to the framing. If desired,
sheet metal screws #6 x ¹⁄₂" length may be
used to secure the support straps to the vent
pipe. See
Figure 25.
Another method, where the vent is not adjacent
to a wall, is illustrated in
Figure 26
. Here, support
straps (96K93) and support plates (96K92) can
be used to support the weight of the vent.

F. Change vent direction to horizontal/inclined run - At transition from or to a horizon-
tal/inclined run, install the SV4.5E45 and
SV4.5E90 elbows in the same manner as the
straight vent sections. The elbows feature a
twist section to allow them to be routed about
the center axis of their initial collar section to
align with the required direction of the next vent
run element. Twist elbow sections in a clock-
wise direction only so as to avoid the possiblity
of unlocking any of the previously connected
vent sections. See

J. Install the storm collar - Install the storm
collar, supplied with the flashing, over the vent/
flashing joint. See
Figure 30.
Loosen the storm
collar screw. Slide collar down until it meets the
top of the flashing. Tighten the adjusting screw.
Apply non-combustible caulking or mastic
around the circumference of the joint to provide
a water tight seal.

K. Install the vertical termination - The final step
involves installation of the SV4.5CGV-1 Vertical
Termination. Extend the vent sections to the
height as shown in the "Vertical vent termination
section" on page 4. The SV4.5CGV-1 Vertical
Termination
exact same fashion as any other Secure Vent
section. Align the termination over the end of the
previously installed section, adjusting the radial
alignment until the four locking dimples of the
termination are aligned with the inlets of the four
incline channels of the last vent section. Push the
termination down until it fully engages, then twist
the termination clockwise running the dimples
down and along the incline channels until they are
seated at the end of the channels.
(Figure 31)
can be installed in the
G. Continue installation of horizontal/inclined
sections - Continue with the installation of the
straight vent sections in horizontal/inclined run
as described in Step C. Install support straps
every 5 ft. (1.52 m) along horizontal/inclined
vent runs using conventional plumber’s tape.
See page 16, Figure 37.
It is very important
that the horizontal/inclined run be maintained
in a straight (no dips) and recommended to be
in a slightly elevated plane, in a direction
away from the fireplace of ¹⁄₄" rise per foot (20
mm per meter) which is ideal, though rise per
foot run ratios that are smaller are acceptable all
the way down to at or near level.
Figure 29
NOTE: DIAGRAMS & ILLUSTRATIONS NOT TO SCALE.
Figure 31
If the vent system extends more than 5' (1.5 m)
above the roof flashing, stabilizers may be necessary. Additional screws may be used at section joints for added stability. Guide wires may
be attached to the joint for additional support on
multiple joint configurations.

HORIZONTAL (OUTSIDE WALL)
TERMINATION SYSTEM
Figure 37, and Figures 40 to 46 on page 18 to
and their associated Horizontal Vent Table
20
illustrate the horizontal venting configurations
that are allowed to be used with these appliances.
Secure Vent pipe applications are shown in these
figures; Secure Flex pipe may also be used.
page 21.
A Horizontal Vent Table summarizes
each system’s minimum and maximum vertical
and horizontal length values that can be used to
design and install the vent components in a
variety of applications.
Both of these horizontal vent systems terminate
through an outside wall. Building Codes limit or
prohibit terminating in specific areas. Refer to
appliances covered in this document are fitted
with collars having locking inclined channels.
The dimpled end of the vent components fit
over the appliance collar to create the positive
twist lock connection.
A.Plan the vent run -
Analyze the vent routing and determine the
types and quantities of sections required
4 ¹⁄₂" (114 mm), 10 ¹⁄₂" (267 mm), 22 ¹⁄₂" (572
mm), 34 ¹⁄₂" (876 mm) and 46 ¹⁄₂" (1181 mm)
net section lengths are available. Make allowances for elbows as indicated in
page 13
.
Maintain a minimum 1" (25 mm) clearance to
combustibles on the vertical sections. Clearances
for the horizontal runs are; 3" (76 mm) on top, 1"
(25 mm) on sides, and 1" (25 mm) at the bottom.
B. Frame exterior wall opening -
Locate the center of the vent outlet on the exterior
wall according to the dimensions shown in
9 (CDST), 10 (CDPF), 11 (CDCL), or 12 (CDCR)
page 7. Cut and/or frame an opening, 10¹⁄₂" x 12¹⁄₈"
(267 mm x 308mm) inside dimensions, about this
center.
C.Frame ceiling opening - If the vertical
route is to penetrate a ceiling, use plumb line
to locate the center above the appliance. Cut
and/or frame an opening, 10¹⁄₂" x 10¹⁄₂" (267
mm x 267 mm) inside dimensions, about this
center (refer to
Figure 22
on page 12 ).
D. Attach vent components to appliance - To
attach a vent component to the appliance collar,
align the dimpled end over the collar, adjusting the
radial alignment until the four locking dimples are
aligned with the inlets of the four incline channels
on the collar (
refer to Figure 23
on page 12).

Fireplace
Push the vent component against the collar
until it fully engages, then twist the component clockwise, running the dimples down and
along the incline channels until they seat at the
end of the channels. The unitized design of the
Secure Vent components will engage and seal
both the inner and outer pipe elements with
the same procedure. Sealant and securing
screws are not required.
E. Attach vent components to each other -
Other vent sections may be added to the previously installed section in accordance with the
requirements of the vent tables. To add another
vent component to a length of vent run, align
the dimpled end of the component over the
inclined channel end of the previously installed
section, adjusting the radial alignment until the
four locking dimples are aligned with the inlets
of the four incline channels of the previous
section. Push the vent component against the
previous section until it fully engages, then
twist the component clockwise running the
dimples down and along the incline channels
until they seat at the end of the channels.This
seating position is indicated by the alignment
TYPICAL HORIZONTAL VENT INSTALLATION
of the arrow and dimple as shown in
Figure 24
on page 12.
F. Install firestop/spacer at ceiling -
When using Secure Vent, use SV4.5VF firestop/spacer at ceiling joists; when using Secure Flex, use SF4.5VF firestop/spacer. If there
is living space above the ceiling level, the firestop/ spacer must be installed on the bottom
side of the ceiling. If attic space is above the
ceiling, the firestop/ spacer must be installed on
the top side of the joist. Route the vent sections
through the framed opening and secure the
firestop/spacer with 8d nails or other appropriate
fasteners at each corner.

Remember to maintain 1" (25 mm) clearance
to combustibles, framing members, and attic or ceiling insulation when running vertical chimney sections. Attic insulation shield
(96K94) may be used to obtain the required
clearances indicated here. See installation
accessories table on page 27.
G. Support the vertical run sections -
See section E on page 12.
H. Change vent direction - At transition from
or to a horizontal/inclined run, install the SV4.5E45
and SV4.5E90 elbows in the same manner as the
straight vent sections. The elbows feature a twist
section to allow them to be routed about the
center axis of their initial collar section to align
with the required direction of the next vent run
element. Twist elbow sections in a clockwise
direction only so as to avoid the possiblity of
unlocking any of the previously connected
vent sections.See
Figure 27 on page 12
.
I. Continue installation of horizontal/inclined
sections - Continue with the installation of the
straight vent sections in horizontal/inclined
run as described in Step E. Install support
straps every 5 ft. (1.52 m) along horizontal/
inclined vent runs using conventional plumber’s
tape. See
Figure 37.
It is very important that
the horizontal/inclined run be maintained in a
straight (no dips) and recommended to be in
a slightly elevated plane, in a direction away
from the fireplace of ¹⁄₄" rise per foot (20 mm
per meter) which is ideal, though rise per foot
run ratios that are smaller are acceptable all the
way down to at or near level. Use a carpenter’s
level to measure from a constant surface and
adjust the support straps as necessary.
It is important to maintain the required clearances to combustibles: 1" (25 mm) at all sides
for all vertical runs; and 3" (76 mm) at the top,
1" (25 mm) at sides, and 1" (25 mm) at the
bottom for all horizontal/inclined runs
J. Assemble vent run to exterior wall - If not
previously measured, locate the center of the
vent at the exterior wall. Prepare an opening as
described in Step B. Assemble the vent system
to point where the terminus of the last section is
within 7¹⁄₂ in. (191 mm) to 11³⁄₄ in. (298 mm)
inboard of the exterior surface to which the
SV4.5HT termination is to be attached, see
ure 39
. If the terminus of the last section is not
Fig-
within this distance, use the telescopic vent
section SV4.5LA, as the last vent section. For
wall thicknesses greater than that shown in
Figure 38
, refer to
Table 3 on page 18
. This table
lists the additional venting components needed
(in addition to the termination and adapter) for a
particular range of wall thicknesses.
K.Attach termination adapter - Attach the
adapter (adapter - SV4.5RCH - provided with
the termination) to the vent section or telescoping vent section), elbow or appliance collar as shown in
Figure 38
in the same manner
as any SV4.5 vent component (refer to Step E).
L.Install Firestop/Spacer at exterior wall -
When using the square termination, install
SV4.5HF (Secure Vent), SF4.5HF (Secure Flex)
Firestop/Spacer over the opening at the exterior side of the framing, long side up, with the
3 inch spacer clearance at the top as shown in
Figure 38
, and nail into place.
(The Firestop/Spacer may also be installed over
the opening at the interior side of the framing.)
When using the round termination, a separate
firestop/spacer is not required since this termination has integral spacers which provide
the same function as a separate firestop/spacer.

VERTICAL OR HORIZONTAL VENTING USING
SECURE FLEX
KITS AND COMPONENTS
Secure Flex venting kits and components may be
used in any venting application in place of rigid
Secure Vent (SV4.5) direct vent components. All
restrictions, clearances and allowances that pertain to the rigid piping apply to the flexible venting.
Secure Flex
kits may not be modified; also,
under no circumstances may separate sections
of flex pipe be joined together.
Using adapter (SV4.5RF), Secure Flex kits
may be added to the end of a vent run made up
of rigid Secure Vent (SV4.5) vent sections
provided that doing so does not violate any of
the venting length, height, routing, horizontal
to vertical ratio requirements or clearance
considerations detailed in this manual.
Secure Flex kits come with an adapter that can
be fitted to the inclined channel end of the last
Secure Vent (SV4.5) vent section in a rigid
system in the exact same fashion as any other
Secure Vent section.
Align the dimpled end of the adapter over the
previously installed section or appliance collar, adjusting the radial alignment until the four
locking dimples of the adapter are aligned with
the inlets of the four incline channels of the last
vent section or collar. Push on the adapter
until it fully engages, then twist the adapter
clockwise running the dimples down and along
the incline channels until they seat at the end
of the channels.
Attach the flexible vent to the adapter as
follows
(also see Figure 47 ):
A. Install the Inner Flex Pipe -
1. Install the small gear clamp loosely around
the inner flexible vent pipe, push it back out of
the way.
2. Apply a bead of Mill-Pac Black (700
°F)
high temperature sealant - Catalog No.
10K81) to the inner adapter collar, approxi-
mately ¹⁄₂ inch from the end.
3. Pull and extend the inner flexible vent pipe.
4. Slide the inner flex pipe over the adapter
collar. Ensure the flexible vent pipe completely
engages the adapter collar to a distance of 1³⁄₄
inches from the end, and that it is free from
damage or tears.
5. Slide the gear clamp down and tighten it
fully to secure the flexible vent to the adapter
inner collar approximately ³⁄₄ inch from the
end of the flex.
6. Install three screws 120 degrees apart through
the flexible vent pipe and into the adapter collar
just below the gear clamp to provide additional
security to the connection.
B. Install the Outer Flex Pipe -
1. Install the large gear clamp loosely around
the outer flexible vent pipe, push it back out of
the way.
NOTE: OUTER PIPE IS PULLED AWAY TO
SHOW THE DETAIL OF THE INNER PIPE
Apply ONLY MIL-PAC BLACK HIGH
TEMPERATURE SEALANT (Catalog No.
10K81) to the outside surface of both
collars of the adapter (be especially
careful to fill the grooves of the outer
collar to be covered by the flexible
pipe) and slide flexible pipe over
inner and outer adapter collars.

collar which extend approximately 1 inch from
the end and to the flat surface, approximately 1³⁄₈
inches from the end.
3. Pull and extend the outer flexible vent pipe.
4. Slide the outer flex pipe over the adapter
collar. Ensure the flexible vent pipe completely
engages the adapter collar to a distance of 1³⁄₄
inches from the end, and that it is free from
damage or tears.
5. Slide the gear clamp down and tighten it
fully to secure the flexible vent to the adapter
outer collar approximately ³⁄₄ inch from the
end of the flex.
6. Install three screws 120 degrees apart
through the flexible vent pipe and into the
adapter collar just below the gear clamp to
provide additional security to the connection.
C. Route Flex Vent -
Ensure that the flex vent is properly routed to
provide the required clearance. Do not allow
the flexible vent to bend in a radius tighter than
5" (127 mm). Refer to
Figure 48
. Space out the
internal flex vent spacers evenly - approximately every 6 inches - and avoid kinking of
inner pipe. Support horizontal sections of flex

ure 53
illustrates two methods for connecting
the gas supply. The flex-line method is acceptable in the U.S., however, Canadian requirements vary depending on locality. Installation
must be in compliance with local codes.
These appliances are equipped with a gas flex
line for use (where permitted) in connecting the
unit to the gas line. A gas flex line is provided
to aid in attaching the direct vent appliance to
the gas supply. The gas flex line can only be
used where local codes permit. See
for flex line description. The flex line is rated for
both natural and propane gas. A manual shut
off valve is also provided with the flex line.
The gas control valve is located in the lower
control compartment. To access the valve proceed as follows: Open the control compartment access panel
(Figure 54)
by actuating the
spring-loaded magnetic catches securing the
panel, gently depressing the outer top corners
of the panel until the catches "pop" the panel
free, allowing it to swing out and down to open.
The millivolt control valve has a ³⁄₈"
(10 mm) NPT thread inlet port. The electronic
control valve has a ¹⁄₂" (13 mm) NPT thread inlet
port and is fitted with a ¹⁄₂" x ³⁄₈" (13 mm x
10 mm) NPT fitting.

Secure all joints tightly using appropriate
tools and sealing compounds (ensure propane resistant compounds are used in propane applications).
Turn on gas supply and test for gas leaks using
a soapy water solution. Never use an open
flame to check for leaks.
A. Mix a 50% dish soap, 50% water solution.
B. Light the appliance (refer to the lighting
instructions provided in the Homeowner's Care
and Operation Instructions).
C. Brush all joints and connections with the
soapy water solution to check for leaks. If bubbles
are formed, or gas odor is detected, turn the gas
control knob to the “OFF” position. Either tighten
or refasten the leaking connection and retest as
described above.
D. When the gas lines are tested and leak
free, observe the individual tongues of flame
on the burner. Make sure all ports are open
and producing flame evenly across the
burner. If any ports are blocked, or partially
blocked, clean out the ports.
NOTE: DIAGRAMS & ILLUSTRATIONS NOT TO SCALE.
When first lighting the appliance, it will take
a few minutes for the line to purge itself of
air. Once purging is complete, the pilot and
burner will light and operate as indicated in
the instruction manual. Subsequent lightings
of the appliance will not require such purging. Inspect the pilot flame (remove logs, if
necessary, handling carefully).
Millivolt Appliance Checkout
The pilot flame should be steady and, not lifting
or floating. Flame should be blue in color with
traces of orange at the outer edge.
The top ³⁄₈" (10 mm) at the pilot generator
(thermopile) and the top ¹⁄₈" min (tip) of the
quick drop out thermocouple should be engulfed in the pilot flame. The flame should
project 1" (25 mm) beyond the hood at all three
ports
(Figure 55)
.
Replace logs after pilot inspection.
To light the burner: turn “ON” the unit-mounted
ON/OFF switch or the wall-mounted ON/OFF
switch or the thermostat (depending on the
type of control installed), and rotate the gas
valve control knob counterclockwise to the
“ON” position.

Step 10. BURNER ADJUSTMENTS
Flame Appearance and sooting
Proper flame appearance is a matter of taste.
Generally, most people prefer the warm glow of
a yellow to orange flame. Appliances operated
with air shutter openings that are too large will
exhibit flames that are blue and transparent.
These weak, blue and transparent flames are
termed anemic. If the air shutter opening is too
small sooting may occur.
Sooting is indicated by black puffs developing at
the tips of very long orange flames. Sooting
results in black deposits forming on the logs,
appliance inside surfaces and on exterior surfaces adjacent to the vent termination. Sooting is
caused by incomplete combustion in the flames
and lack of combustion air entering the air
shutter opening. To achieve a warm yellow to
orange flame with an orange body that does not
soot, the shutter opening must be adjusted
between these two extremes.
No smoke or soot should be present. Reposition
the log set if flames impinge on any part of it.
If the log set is properly positioned and sooting
conditions exist, the air shutter opening on the
main burner tube should be adjusted. Normally,
the more offsets in the vent system, the greater
the need for the air shutter to be opened further.
Burner Adjustment
WARNING: AIR SHUTTER ADJUSTMENT
SHOULD ONLY BE PERFORMED BY A
QUALIFIED PROFESSIONAL SERVICE
TECHNICIAN.
IMPORTANT: ENSURE THAT THE GLASS
ENCLOSURE PANELS ARE IN PLACE
AND SEALED DURING ADJUSTMENT.
CAUTION: THE AIR SHUTTER DOOR AND
NEARBY APPLIANCE SURFACES ARE HOT.
EXERCISE CAUTION TO AVOID INJURY WHILE
ADJUSTING FLAME APPEARANCE.
To adjust the flame, rotate the adjustment rod
(located in the lower control area) counterclockwise to increase or clockwise to reduce the air
shutter opening. Adjust the air shutter to the
recommended setting as shown in
Figure 58
Allow the burner to operate for at least 15
minutes. Observe the flame continuously. If it
appears weak or sooty as previously described,
adjust the air shutter by rotating the adjustment rod until the flame appearance is as
desired.
The adjustment rod and associated adjustable air
shutter is patented technology. Flame adjustments can be made quickly and accurately to taste
without the need of disassembling the appliance
and waiting for 15 minutes after each adjustment.
Propane models may exhibit a flame pattern
that may candle or appear stringy. If this is
problematic or persists as the appliance is
continually operated, adjust the air shutter
closed as described in the previous paragraphs.
Operate the appliance for a period of time as the
effect diminishes, ensuring that the appliance
does not develop sooty flames.
When satisfied that the appliance operates properly, proceed to finish the installation. Leave the
control knob in the ON position and the remote
switch OFF. Close the lower control compartment door.
