WARNING: CHILDREN AND ADULTS

OF HIGH SURFACE TEMPERATURES. USE
CAUTION AROUND THE APPLIANCE TO
AVOID BURNS OR CLOTHING IGNITION.
YOUNG CHILDREN SHOULD BE SUPER-

ROOM AS THE APPLIANCE.
OPERATION AND CARE OF YOUR
APPLIANCE
1. Appliance operation may be controlled
through the optional ON/OFF unit rocker switch,
located in the lower control compartment, or
through a remotely located optional wall switch
or wall thermostat. Separate switches may pro-
vide independent control for the forced air
blower and remote fireplace operation (op-
tional equipment).
2. These heater rated units are equipped with a
two stage (HI, LOW) gas control valve. To cycle
the burner between the HI and LOW settings,
rotate the control knob, located in the center of
the valve front face, clockwise and counter-
clockwise respectively.
3. When lit for the first time, the appliance will
emit a slight odor for an hour or two. This is
due to the “burn-in” of the internal paints and
lubricants used in the manufacturing process.
Additionally, when lit for the first time, this
appliance may produce smoke, this is normal
and should be expected. For the first few
hours, operate the appliance with doors and
windows open to encourage the dissipation of
smoke and fumes.
4. Upon each lighting of the appliance, conden-
sation may occur and fog the inside of the glass
panel. This condition will disappear shortly as
the appliance heats.
5. Keep lower control compartment clean by
vacuuming or brushing at least twice a year.
More frequent cleanings may be required due
to excessive lint from carpeting, bedding mate-
rials, etc. It is important that the control com-
partments, burners and circulating air pas-
sageways of the heater be kept clean.
6. Always turn off gas to pilot before cleaning.
Before relighting, refer to the lighting instruc-
tions in this manual. Instructions are also found
on a pull-out panel located on the floor of the
appliance.
7. Always keep the appliance area clear and free
from combustible materials, gasoline and other
flammable liquids.
8. Remember, this appliance has a continuous
burning pilot flame. Exercise caution when
using products with combustible vapors.
CLEANING AND SERVICING
WARNING: TURN OFF THE UNVENTED
GAS ROOM HEATER AND ALLOW TO COOL
BEFORE CLEANING.
Only limited cleaning will be required under
the normal use of the heater. Dust the front
grate, the top of the piezo cover and the control
knob occasionally. Do not use cleaning fluids
to clean the logs or any other part of the room
heater.
Decorative Arch Kits
Two arch kits are available for the CFST appli-
ance. A one piece complete door arch kit and a
four (4) piece arch frame kit. Both kits are easy
to install and do not require hardware to attach
them to the standard door frame. The four-
piece arch frame kit can be installed without the
bottom or bottom and side pieces to customize
the look of your appliance. This kit can be
retrofitted to previously installed CFST appli-
ances. The decorative arches may not be used
in conjunction with the screen panel kit.
Remove the log assembly, gently handling by
holding each log at each end. Use a vacuum
cleaner to remove loose particles from the base
and from around the burners. Gloves are rec-
ommended to prevent the fibers from pricking
your skin. If the skin is pricked, wash gently
with soap and water. Replace the logs as de-
tailed in Step 9 Assembling the Logs.
If, after a period of use, the flames start to
exhibit unusual shapes and behavior, or the
burners fail to ignite smoothly, then the burner
holes may require some cleaning. If this hap-
pens, it is preferable to contact your nearest
dealer to get the appliance serviced.
