OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
sounds. You should also be aware that as there
are temperature changes within the unit these
sounds will likely re-occur. Again, this is normal
for steel fi reboxes.
Blower Thermodisc:
When this thermally activated switch turns ON
it will create a small "clicking" sound. This is the
switch contacts closing and is normal.
Pilot Flame:
While the pilot fl ame is on it can make a very
slight "whisper" sound.
Gas Control Valve:
As the gas control valve turns ON and OFF, a
dull clicking sound may be audible, this is normal
operation of a gas regulator or valve.
Unit Body/Firebox:
Different types and thicknesses of steel will
expand and contract at different rates resulting
in some "cracking" and "ticking" sounds will be
heard throughout the cycling process.
MAINTENANCE
INSTRUCTIONS
1) Always turn the gas valve to off before
cleaning. For relighting, refer to lighting
instructions. Keep the burner and control
compartment clean by brushing and
vacuuming at least once a year. When
cleaning the logs, use a clean soft paint
brush as the logs are fragile and easily
damaged.
2) Clean (never when unit is hot) appliance,
door and louvers with a damp cloth. Never
use an abrasive cleaner. The gold louvers
(and optional gold door) may be scratched
if abrasives are used to clean them.
The heater is fi nished in a heat resistant
paint and should only be refi nished with heat
resistant paint (not with wall paint). FPI uses
StoveBrite Paint - Metallic Black #6309.
3) Make a periodic check of burner for proper
position and condition. Visually check the
fl ame of the burner periodically, making sure
the fl ames are steady; not lifting or fl oating.
If there is a problem, call a qualifi ed service
person.
4) The appliance and venting system must be
inspected before use, and at least annually,
by a qualifi ed fi eld service person, to ensure
that the fl ow of combustion and ventilation
air is not obstructed.
During the annual service call, the burners
should be removed from the burner tray
and cleaned. Replace the embers but do
not block the pilot.
5) Keep the area near the appliance clear and
free from combustible materials, gasoline
and other fl ammable vapours and liquids.
6) Each time the appliance is lit, it may cause
condensation and fog the glass. This
condensation and fog is normal and will
disappear in a few minutes as the glass
heats up.
Never operate the appliance without the
glass properly secured in place or with
the door open.
7) Do not use this appliance if any part has been
under water. Immediately call a qualifi ed
service technician to inspect the appliance
and to replace nay part of the control system
and any gas control which has been under
water.
8) Periodically check the pilot fl ames. Correct
fl ame pattern has three strong blue fl ames: 1
fl owing around the thermopile and 1 around
the thermocouple, and 1 fl owing across the
rear of the burner (it does not have to be
touching the burner).
1) Push in gas control knob slightly and turn to “PILOT” position.
2) Push in control knob all the way and hold in until the pilot lights
up. Continue to hold the control knob in for about 20 seconds
after the pilot is lit. Release knob.
3) Push in gas control knob slightly and turn to "ON" position.
4) Turn ON the fl ame switch.
2) Wait fi ve (5) minutes to clear out any gas. If you then smell gas
STOP! follow “B” in the safety information above on this label. If
you don’t smell gas, go to the next step.
3) Turn knob on gas control counterclockwise to “PILOT”.
4) Push in control knob all the way and hold in. Immediately push
black button on spark igniter until pilot lights. Continue to hold the
control knob in for about 1/2 minute after the pilot is lit. Release
knob and it will pop back up. Pilot should remain lit. If it goes out,
repeat steps 3) and 4).
If knob does not pop up when released, stop and immediately call
your service technician or gas supplier.
If the pilot will not stay lit after several tries, turn the gas control
knob to “OFF” and call your service technician or gas supplier.
5) Turn gas control knob counterclockwise to “ON”.
