OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
1) Read and understand these instructions
before operating this appliance.
2) Check to see that all wiring is correct and
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) Verify log placement. If the pilot cannot be
seen when lighting the unit - the logs have
been incorrectly positioned.
7) The unit should never be turned off, and on
again without a minimum of a 60 second
wait.
4) When the pilot stays lit, turn the gas knob
further counterclockwise to the "ON" posi-
tion.
5) Use the thermostat or remote control to turn
on the unit.
6) Rotate the fl ame height regulator to adjust
the fl ame height higher or lower.
SHUTDOWN
PROCEDURE
1) Use the thermostat or remote control to turn
off the main burner.
2) Turn the main gas control clockwise to the
"OFF" position to turn off the pilot (push
knob in slightly).
3) Turn off all electric power to appliance if
service is to be performed.
FIRST FIRE
The fi rst fi re 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 fi replace for at least four (4) hours
the fi rst time you use it with the fan on. When
fi rst operated, the unit will release an odour
caused by the curing of the paint, the burning
off of any oils remaining from manufacturing.
Smoke detectors in the house may go off at
this time. Open a few windows to ventilate the
room for a couple of hours.
The glass panel may require cleaning
after the unit has cooled down.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CLEAN THE
GLASS WHILE IT IS HOT.
Note: When the glass is cold and the appli-
ance is lit, it may cause condensation
and fog the glass. This condensation
is normal and will disappear in a few
minutes as the glass heats up.
DO NOT BURN THE APPLIANCE
WITHOUT THE GLASS FRONT IN
PLACE.
NORMAL OPERATING
SOUNDS OF GAS
APPLIANCES
It is possible that you will hear some sounds
from your gas appliance. This is perfectly normal
due to the fact that there are various gauges
and types of steel used within your appliance.
Listed below are some examples. All are normal
operating sounds and should not be considered
as defects in your appliance.
Blower:
Regency
®
gas appliances use high tech blowers
to push heated air farther into the room. It is not
unusual for the fan to make a "whirring" sound
when ON. This sound will increase or decrease
in volume depending on the speed setting of
your fan speed control.
Burner Tray:
The burner tray is positioned directly under the
burner tube(s) and logs and is made of a differ-
ent gauge material from the rest of the fi rebox
and body. Therefore, the varying thicknesses of
steel will expand and contract at slightly different
rates which can cause "ticking" and "cracking"
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.
LIGHTING
PROCEDURE
IMPORTANT: Gas on/off knob cannot be
turned from "PILOT" to "OFF" unless it is
partially depressed.
1) Turn stove OFF using the Burner "ON/OFF"
switch, remote or thermostat.
2) Turn gas control knob so indicator points
to "OFF" position and allow 5 minutes for
any gas in the combustion chamber to
escape.
3) Turn gas control knob counterclockwise
so indicator points to the "PILOT" position.
Depress the gas control knob fully. Depress
the igniter button several times until the
pilot lights. After approximately one minute,
release the gas control knob. The pilot fl ame
should continue to burn. If the pilot does not
remain lit, repeat operation allowing a longer
period before releasing gas control knob.
CONVECTION FAN
OPERATION
The fan operates automatically - turn the knob
on the pedestal control panel to adjust to the
desired speed. The fan will turn on as the stove
comes up to operating temperature. After the
unit has been turned off and the unit cooled to
below a useful heat output range the fan will
shut off automatically.
During the fi rst few fi res, a white fi lm
may develop on the glass front as part
of the curing process. The glass should
be cleaned or the fi lm will bake on and
become very diffi cult to remove. Use a
non-abrasive cleaner and NEVER clean
the glass while it is hot.
IMPORTANT
To ignite or reignite the pilot, the
door to the fi rebox must be opened.
Only when the pilot holds, without pressure
being applied to the control knob, should the
door to the fi rebox be closed. The unit must
never be operated with the glass or door
open.
NOTE: For all propane units and units
equipped with electric spark boxes, see
"Copy of Lighting Plate Instructions" sec-
tion for more details.
