turn by hand, do not try to repair it. Call a qualified
service technician. Force or attempted repair may re-

If heater shuts off, do not relight until you provide
fresh air. If heater keeps shutting off, have it serv-
iced. Keep burner and control compartment clean.
When lit for the first time, the fireplace will emit a slight
odour for a few hours. This is a normal temporary condi-
tion caused by the curing of the logs and the "burn-in" of
internal paints and lubricants used in the manufacturing
process and will not occur again.
After extended periods of non-operation such as following
a vacation or a warm weather season, the fireplace may
emit a slight odour for a few hours. This is caused by dust
particles burning off. In both cases, open a window to suf-
ficiently ventilate the room.
Purge the gas line with the glass door open. Assure
that a continuous gas flow is at the burner before clos-
ing the door.

with the push button igniter. Keep knob fully depressed

on. When the pilot has been turned off, ignition of the

may not come on when you turn the valve to on. Re-
mote switch must be in the on position to ignite burner.
