Flames from the pilot (rear right back side of the pan burner) as
well as the main flame should be visually checked as the log set
is installed.
In normal operation at full rate, the flame appearance should be sets
of yellow flames above the rear burner section, and shorter blue
flames with glowing embers on the front burner section.
NOTE: all flames will be random by design, flame height will go
up and down.
Avoid any drafts that alter burner flame patterns. Do not allow fans
to blow directly into fireplace. Do not place a blower inside the
burner area of the firebox. Ceiling fans may create drafts that alter
flame patterns. Sooting and improper burning will result.
During manufacturing, fabricating and shipping, various
components of this appliance are treated with certain oils, films or
bonding agents. These chemicals are not harmful, but may produce
annoying smoke and smells as they are burned off during the initial
operation of the appliance, possibly causing headaches or eye or
lung irritation. This is a normal and temporary occurrence.
The initial break-in operation should last 2-3 hours with the burner
at the highest setting. Provide maximum ventilation by opening
windows or doors to allow odors to dissipate. Any odors remaining
after this initial break-in will be slight and will disappear with
continued use.
