Step 9. Checking the System – With gas line
installed run initial system checkout before
closing up the front of the unit. Follow the pilot
lighting instructions on page 15.
Note: Instructions are also found on the pull
out panel located on the bottom surface of the
appliance.
When first lighting the appliance, it will take a
few minutes for the line to purge itself of air.
Once purging is complete, the pilot and burner
will light and operate as indicated in the instruc-
tion manual. Subsequent lightings of the appli-
ance will not require such purging. Inspect the
pilot flame (remove logs, if necessary, handling
carefully).
The pilot flame should be steady, not lifting or
floating. Flame should be blue in color with
traces of orange at the outer edge.
The top ³⁄₈" (10 mm) at the pilot generator
(thermocouple) should be engulfed in the pilot
flame (NG only).
Replace logs if removed for pilot inspection.
To light the burner; turn “ON” the optional
remote wall switch (if installed) and rotate the
gas valve control knob counterclockwise to the
“ON” position.
Step 10. Installing the Screen Panel Assem-
bly – Retrieve the screen door frame. Position
the door frame in front of the firebox opening
in the brackets at the base of the fireplace front
opening. Lean the door frame back towards
the fireplace ensuring that the frame seats
evenly as it draws shut.
Install the three (3) ¹⁄₄"-20 x 1" Phillips pan
head screws removed previously and tighten
to secure.
Installing the Optional Glass Door
Position the door frame in front of the firebox
opening, with the joint in the gasket down.
Locate the three (3) tabs at the bottom edge of
the door frame into the three (3) brackets at the
base of the fireplace front opening. Lean the
door frame back towards the fireplace ensuring
that the frame seats evenly as it draws shut.

Remote Control Kit
The Model RCK adds the convenience of re-
mote control for your appliance. The kit in-
cludes a wireless, hand held transmitter and a
