Operation
1. Your Acadia gas fireplace can be operated manu-
ally using the On/Off/T-stat rocker switch or it can
be automatically controlled using an optional
wall-mounted thermostat and/or remote control
device. A separate switch is provided for the
optional forced air blower kit.
Familiarize yourself with the location and func-
tion of the controls. See Figs. 51 and 52.
Gas Control - Used to control the Pilot light and
gas flow from the supply line.
Regulator - Allows you to adjust heat output and
flame intensity.
Piezo Ignitor - Push button pilot light ignition.
ON/OFF/ T’STAT Switch - Allows for manual or
thermostatic control of the burner.
Always follow the Lighting Instructions located
on the inside Back Cover of this manual.
2. For the first several hours of operation, it is
common that you will detect some odor as the
metal and manufacturing materials cure under
heat. This condition is temporary and can be
alleviated by allowing plenty of fresh air to
circulate through the area.
3. Condensation may develop on the glass upon
each lighting of the appliance. This “fog” will
disappear as the glass heats.
4. Keep the controls and the area under the appli-
ance free of debris; vacuum this area frequently.
Always keep the appliance area clear and free
from combustible materials, gasoline and other
flammable liquids.
When a vacuum is used on any service for the
fireplace, ALWAYS be sure the fireplace is com-
pletely cold.
5. Remember, your fireplace utilizes a continuously
burning pilot flame. Exercise caution when using
household products containing combustible
vapors.
6. CAUTION: DO NOT OPERATE THIS APPLIANCE
WITH THE GLASS REMOVED, CRACKED OR BRO-
KEN. REPLACEMENT OF THE GLASS SHOULD BE
DONE BY A LICENSED OR QUALIFIED SERVICE
PERSON. USE ONLY REPLACEMENT GLASS PRO-
VIDED BY YOUR AUTHORIZED JØTUL DEALER.
NEVER USE ANY SUBSTITUTE MATERIALS.
