THERMOSTAT CONTROL
OPERATION
The thermostat used on this fireplace senses the
room temperature. At times the room may ex-
ceed the set temperature. If so, the burner will
shut off. The burner will cycle back on when room
temperature drops below the set temperature.
The control knob can be set to any heat level
between 1 and 5.
Note:
The thermostat sensing bulb measures
the air near the fireplace cabinet. This may not
always agree with room temperature (depend-
ing on housing construction, installation loca-
tion, room size, open air temperatures, etc.).
Frequent use of your fireplace will let you de-
termine your own comfort levels.
MANUAL LIGHTING
PROCEDURE
1. Follow steps 1 through 5 under Lighting In-
structions, page 24.
2. With control knob pressed in, strike match.
Hold match to pilot until pilot lights.
3. Keep control knob pressed in for 30 sec-
onds after lighting pilot. After 30 seconds,

OPERATING
BLOWER
This blower has three settings: ON, OFF, and
AUTO. In the ON position, the blower will op-
erate constantly. In the OFF position, the
blower will not operate. In the AUTO position,
the blower will start when the thermostat senses
a sufficient increase in firebox temperature.
Note:
Your fireplace and thermostat blower
will not turn on and off at the same time. The
fireplace may run for several minutes before
the blower turns on. After the heater modulates
to the pilot position, the blower will continue to
run. The blower will shut off after the firebox
temperature decreases.
Note:
It is safe to operate fireplace with blower
turned off. However, the blower helps distrib-
ute heated air from the fireplace.

FOR YOUR SAFETY
READ BEFORE LIGHTING
WARNING: If you do not fol-
low these instructions exactly,
a fire or explosion may result
causing property damage, per-
sonal injury or loss of life.
A. This appliance has a pilot which must be
lighted by hand. When lighting the pilot,
follow these instructions exactly.
B. BEFORE LIGHTING smell all around the
appliance area for gas. Be sure to smell next
to the floor because some gas is heavier than
air and will settle on the floor.
WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS
• Do not try to light any appliance.
Do not touch any electric switch; do not
use any phone in your building.
Immediately call your gas supplier from
a neighbor’s phone. Follow the gas
supplier’s instructions.
If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call
the fire department.
C. Use only your hand to push in or turn the
gas control knob. Never use tools. If the
knob will not push in or turn by hand, don’t
try to repair it, call a qualified service tech-
nician or gas supplier. Force or attempted
repair may result in a fire or explosion.
