C. After the Appliance is Lit
Initial Break-in Procedure
When you light the appliance, you may notice that it pro-
duces heat which does have an associated odor or smell. If
you feel this odor is excessive it may require the initial three
to four hour continuous burn on high followed by a second
burn up to 12 hours to fully drive off any odor from paint and
lubricants used in the manufacturing process. Condensation
of the glass is normal
Issue Solutions
Condensation on the glass This is a result of gas combustion and temperature variations. As the appliance warms, this condensation will
disappear.
Blue fl ames This is a result of normal operation and the fl ames will begin to yellow as the appliance is allowed to burn for 20 to
40 minutes.
Odor from appliance When fi rst operated, this appliance may release an odor for the fi rst several hours. This is caused by the curing of
the paint and the burning off of any oils remaining from manufacturing.
Film on the glass This is a normal result of the curing process of the paint and logs. Glass should be cleaned within 3 to 4 hours of
initial burning to remove deposits left by oils from the manufacturing process. A non-abrasive cleaner such as gas
fi replace glass cleaner may be necessary. See your dealer.
Metallic noise Noise is caused by metal expanding and contracting as it heats up and cools down, similar to the sound produced
by a furnace or heating duct. This noise does not affect the operation or longevity of the fi replace.
Is it normal to see the pilot
fl ame burn continually?
In an Intellifi re ignition system it is normal to see the pilot fl ame, but it should turn off when ON/OFF is turned off.
In a standing pilot system the pilot will always stay on.
