Placing Lava Rock in Front of Burner on Fireplace Floor
Spread lava rocks on fireplace floor in front of the burner pan.
The lava rocks are for decorative effect and are not required for
fireplace operation.
ATTENTION: DO NOT PLACE LAVA ROCKS ON BURNER,
LOGS OR ROCK WOOL. THE LAVA ROCKS SHOULD
ONLY BE PLACED ON THE FIREPLACE FLOOR.
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 after 10 to 15 minutes, the flame
appearance should be sets of yellow flames.
NOTE: all flames will be random by design, flame height will
go up and down.
Glowing embers (rock wool) can cover the pan burner in between
the front and middle logs, but very little is necessary to cover this
area. Excess ember material causes the yellow flame to become
orange and stringy. Apply just enough to obtain slow glow and a
gold yellow flame.
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.

PLACEMENT OF GLOWING EMBERS AND LAVA ROCK
Placement of the glowing embers (rock wool) is very individual
and light coverage will provide your best effects. We recommend
separation of the rock wool by hand and make your coverage as
light and fluffy as possible.
Place just enough embers on the burner to obtain the glow and a
gold, yellow flame.
Do not place embers (rock wool) over large ports in rear portion
of burner.
Rock wool should not be placed in the area of the pilot assem
