OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS

enclosed to prevent possible shock.
3) Check to ensure there are no gas leaks.
4) Make sure the glass in the door frame is
properly positioned. Never operate the ap-
pliance with the glass removed.
5) Verify that the venting and cap are unob-
structed.
6) Ensure that the brick panels are installed.

press the igniter button several times until

minute, release the gas control knob. The
pilot flame should continue to burn. If the
pilot does not remain lit, repeat operation
allowing a longer period before releasing

further counterclockwise to the "ON" po-
sition.

FIRST FIRE
DO NOT BURN THE APPLIANCE
WITHOUT THE GLASS FRONT IN
PLACE.
The first fire in your stove is part of the paint
curing process. To ensure that the paint is
properly cured, it is recommended that you
burn your fireplace for at least four (4) hours
the first time before you use it with the fan on.
When first operated, the unit will release an
odour caused by the curing of the paint, the
burning off of any oils remaining from manu-
facturing. Smoke detectors in the house may
go off at this time. Open a few windows to
ventilate the room for a couple of hours.
Note: When the glass is cold and the
appliance is lit, it may cause con-
densation and fog the glass. This
condensation is normal and will
disappear in a few minutes as the
glass heats up.
During the first few fires, a white film
may develop on the glass front as part of
the curing process. The glass should be
cleaned after the unit has cooled down
or the film will bake on and become very
difficult to remove. Use a non-abrasive
cleaner and DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CLEAN
THE GLASS WHILE IT IS HOT.
AERATION
ADJUSTMENT
The air shutter can be adjusted by moving the
adjusting wire up or down. The wire is ac-
cessed through the bottom louver opening.
Open the air shutter for a blue flame or close for
a more yellow flame. The burner aeration is
factory set but may need adjusting due to either
the local gas supply or altitude.

shutter is closed too much.
Note: Any damage due to carboning re-
sulting from improperly setting the
aeration controls is NOT covered
under warranty.

Open - Short Blue
Note: Aeration Adjustment should only
be performed by an authorized
Regency Installer at the time of
installation or service.

push up to close aeration cap.
Only when the pilot holds, without pressure
being applied to the control knob, reapply the
tension springs to the door. The unit must
not be operated with the tension springs
unattached.

To ignite or reignite the pilot,
you must first release the
tension springs below the door.
