Variable Flame Height Adjustment
( Millivolt Appliances only)
1. All Millivolt appliances are equipped with a
variable gas control valve. Flame height for
these models may be adjusted through a range
between fixed low and high settings, alter-
nately, while the appliance is in operation. Ad-
just the flame height as desired after lighting
the appliance by rotating the variable adjust-
ment control knob located on the front of the
valve
(refer to Figure 3 - SIT, 4 - Honeywell)
.
2. When lit for the first time, this appliance will
emit a slight odor for an hour or two. This is
due to the “burn-in” of internal paints and
lubricants used in the manufacturing process.
3. Keep lower control compartment clean by
vacuuming or brushing at least twice a year.
More frequent cleaning may be required due
to excessive lint from carpeting, bedding ma-
terials, etc. It is important that control com-
partments, burners and circulating air pas-
sageways of the appliance be kept clean.
4. Always turn off gas to the pilot (millivolt
appliances) before cleaning. Before re-light-
ing, refer to the lighting instructions in this
manual. Instructions are also found on a pull-
out panel located on the floor of the appliance.
Electronic Appliances -
To light electronic appliances refer to the de-
tailed lighting instructions found in both En-
glish and French on
pages 14 and 15
of these
instructions respectively. Electronic appliance
lighting instructions may also be found on
the pull out lighting instruction labels at-
tached to the gas control valve. If your elec-
tronic appliance is equipped with an optional
remote wall switch or remote control kit the
appliance main burner may be turned on and
off with the wall switch or remote control.
If your electronic appliance is not equipped
with a wall switch or remote control, the main
burner must be turned off and on with the gas
control switch. Toggle the switch from ON to
OFF to operate the main burner .

5. Always keep the appliance area clear and
free from combustible materials, gasoline and
other flammable liquids.
6. Remember, Millivolt appliances have a con-
tinuous burning pilot flame. Exercise caution
when using products with combustible vapors.
Glass Cleaning
It will be necessary to clean the glass periodi-
cally. During start-up it is normal for conden-
sation to form on the inside of the glass. This
can cause lint, dust and other airborne par-
ticles to cling to the glass surface. Also initial
paint curing may deposit a slight film on the
glass. It is therefore recommended that the
glass be cleaned two or three times with a non-
ammonia household cleaner and warm water
(a gas fireplace glass cleaner is recommended).
After that the glass should be cleaned two or
three times during each heating season, de-
pending on the circumstances present.
Note: Clean glass after first two weeks of
operation.
WARNING: DO NOT USE ABRASIVE
CLEANERS. NEVER CLEAN THE GLASS
WHEN IT IS HOT.
Maintenance
The appliance and venting system should be
thoroughly inspected before initial use and at
least annually by a qualified service techni-
cian. However, more frequent periodic inspec-
tions and cleanings should be performed by
the homeowner. Homeowner must contact a
qualified service technician at once if any
abnormal condition is observed.
Refer to the maintenance schedule for mainte-
nance tasks, procedures, periodicity and by whom
they should be performed. Always verify proper
operation of the appliance after servicing.
