codes. Installation practices vary from region to region and
it is important to know the specifics that apply to your area,
for example: in Massachusetts State:
• The fireplace damper must be removed or welded in the open
position prior to installation of a fireplace insert or gas log.
• The appliance off valve must be a “T” handle gas cock.
• The flexible connector must not be longer than 36 inches.
• The appliance is not approved for installation in a bedroom or
bathroom unless the unit is a direct vent sealed combustion
product.
• WARNING: This product must be installed by a licensed
plumber or gas fitter when installed within the commonwealth
of Massachusetts.
In absence of local codes, install to the current National
Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1, or the current CAN/CGA
B149, Installation Codes.
Purge all gas lines with the glass door of the fire-
place removed. Assure that a continuous gas flow
is at the burner before installing the door.
Under extreme vent configurations, allow several
minutes (5-15) for the flame to stabilize after igni-
tion.
Altitudes greater than 4000ft. require a minimum
vent run of 12ft.
The fireplace and its individual shutoff valve must be discon-
nectedfromthegassupplypipingsystemduringanypressure
testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig
(3.5 kPa). The fireplace must be isolated from the gas supply
piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve
during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system
at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).
A 1/8 inch NPT plug, accessible for test gauge connection,
must be installed immediately upstream of the gas supply
connection to the stove.
Thisfireplacemust be connected toanyacceptedlinedchim-
ney system listed to ULC-S635M (in Canada) or UL-1777 (in
USA).Theventingconnectionmustbe in compliance with the
vent manufacturers installation instructions.
The draft hood must be installed so it is in the same atmo-
spheric pressure zone as the combustion air inlet to the
fireplace.
Provide adequate ventilation and combustion air. Provide
adequate accessibility clearance for servicing and op-
erating the fireplace. Never obstruct the front opening
of the fireplace.
This insert must be recessed into a vented noncombustible
woodburning fireplace (prefabricated or masonry) only.
The minimum fireplace size in which the heater is to be
installed is:
HEIGHT 17½ inches WIDTH 25½ inches DEPTH 16½
inches
The minimum distance, from the bottom of a combustible
mantle projecting 6" maximum from the wall to the top of the
unit, is 8".
The fireplace, when installed, must be electrically connected
andgrounded in accordance with local codes. Inthe absence
oflocal codes, use the currentCSAC22.1 CANADIAN ELEC-
TRICAL CODE in Canada or the ANSI/NFPA 70 NATIONAL
ELECTRICALCODE in the United States. The blower power
cord must be connected into a properly grounded receptacle.
Thegroundingprongmustnotbe removed from the cord plug.
FOR YOUR SATISFACTION, THIS FIREPLACE HAS BEEN
TEST-FIRED TO ASSURE ITS OPERATION AND QUAL-
ITY! Maximum input is 24,000 BTU/hr for natural gas and
22,000 BTU/hr for propane. When the fireplace is installed
at elevations above 4,500ft, and in the absense of specific
recommendationsfrom the local authority having jurisdiction,
the certified high altitude input rating shall be reduced at the
rate of 4% for each additional 1,000ft. Maximum output for
naturalgas is 15,900 BTU/hr and 16,000 BTU/hrfor propane.
Minimuminletgassupplypressure is 4.5 inches water column
for natural gas and 11 inches water column for propane. This

PHAZERTM logs and charcoal embers, exclusive to CONTI-
NENTAL Fireplaces, provide a unique and realistic glowing
effect that is different in every installation. Take the time to
carefully position the charcoal embers for a maximum glow-
ing effect.
1. Placethefront log onto the mainburner,pushingit as
closeaspossibletotheburnerportswithout blocking/covering
them. The left and right spacing between the log ends and
the burner ports should be equal.
YOU MAY FIND IT EASIER TO PLACE SOME CHAR-
COAL EMBERS BENEATH THE FRONT LOG NOW.
2. Place the back log onto the step located at the back
of the combustion chamber. The notch situated at the lower
rightofthe back log shouldbecentered evenly above thepilot
assembly.
3. While supporting the back log, to prevent it from fall-
ing forward, set the three smaller logs into the pockets and
grooves of the front and back logs, respectively.
Log colours may vary. During the initial use of the fireplace,
thecolourswillbecomemoreuniform as colour pigments burn
in during the heat activated curing process.
POSITIONING THE LOGS
IMPROPERLY WILL CAUSE FLAME
IMPINGEMENT AND CARBONING.
Randomly place the embers beneath the front log, covering
all of the burner area beneath the hollowed out section of
the log. Place the remaining embers along the front. Keep
ember dust away from burner ports to avoid plugging them.
Fine dust found in bottom of bag not to be used.

This is a thermally activated switch, attached to the back of
the unit and extending up into the dilution draft hood, which
senses the change in temperature and shuts down the gas
valve in the event of a severe downdraft of air or a blocked
or disconnected vent.
It acts as a safety shut-off to prevent a build up of carbon
monoxide or an explosion of unburnt gases during start up. If
the flue is blocked or has no "draw", the spill switch will auto-
maticallyshut offthe supply of gaswithin about 5-10minutes.
TAMPERING WITH THE SWITCH CAN RESULT IN CAR-
BON MONOXIDE (CO) POISONING AND POSSIBLE
DEATH.
A CHECK FOR CORRECT VENTING ACTION MUST BE
MADE BEFORE THE INSTALLED INSERT IS LEFT WITH
THE CUSTOMER.
Test after installing the unit into a vented non-combustible
fireplace in the following manner:
1. Close all doors and windows in the room; start exhaust
fans in the home; turn fireplace blower off.
2. Set controls to "high" and light the unit.
3. Wait 5 minutes. Light a match and hold it to the spill tube
opening.
4. Ventingactionissatisfactoryif smoke is drawn intothespill
tube. Venting action is unsatisfactory if the flame and smoke
are not drawn into the tube.
5. If venting action is unsatisfactory, turn the unit off, wait
10 minutes and try again. If the smoke or flame is still not
drawn into the spill tube, turn the unit off and check for vent
blockage or restriction. If necessary, consult with a qualified
air quality specialist.
When lit for the first time, the fireplace will emit a slight
odour for a few hours. This is a normal temporary condi-
tion caused by the curing of the logs and the "burn-in" of
internal paints and lubricants used in the manufacturing
process and will not occur again. Simply open a window
to sufficiently ventilate the room.
After extended periods of non-operation such as follow-

and its venting system should be inspected before use and
at least annually by a qualified service person. The fireplace
area must be kept clear and free of combustible materials,
gasoline or other flammable vapours and liquids. The flow of
combustion and ventilation air must not be obstructed.
1. In order to properly clean the burner and pilot assembly,
remove the logs to expose both assemblies.
2. Keep the control compartment, logs, burner, air shutter
opening and the area surrounding the logs clean by vacuum-
ing or brushing, at least once a year.
3. Check to see that all burner ports are burning. Clean out
any of the ports which may not be burning or are not burning
properly.
4. Check to see that the pilot flame is large enough to engulf
the thermopile on one leg and reaches toward the burner on
the other leg.
5. Replace the cleaned logs.
6. Check to see that the main burner ignites completely on
all openings when the gas knob for the burner is turned on.A
5 to 10 second total light-up period is satisfactory. If ignition
takeslonger,consultyour CONTINENTALdealer / distributor.
7. Check that the door gasketing is not broken or missing.

a blower, a heat sensor, variable on/off speed control and a
power cord. Because the blower is thermally activated, when
turnedon, it will automatically start approximately 15minutes
after lighting the fireplace and will run for approximately 30
minutesafter the fireplace hasbeen turned off.Useofthe fan
increases the output of heat. Air, drawn in through the lower
louvre access door, is driven up the back of the firebox, and
exhausted as hot air between the upper louvres.
• Turn off the gas and electric power to the unit.
• Remove the upper glass bracket. Loosen the lower glass
bracket and remove the glass.
• Remove the logs.
• Remove the burner assembly.
• Remove the eight screws holding the access door in place
on the control assembly (located at the back of the burner
support).
• Remove the four screws holding the blower duct and slide
it forward from beneath the burner support.
• Disconnect the electrical connectors at the blower.
• Remove the blower.
1. Remove the pilot adjustment cap.
2. Adjust the pilot screw to provide properly sized flame.
3. Replace the adjustment cap.
Natural gas models have air shutters set at 1/16 (.063") inch
open.Propane gas models haveair shutters setat 3/8 (.375)
inch open. Closing the air shutter will cause a more yellow
flame, but can lead to carboning. Opening the air shutter will
cause a more blue flame, but can cause flame lifting from
the burner ports. The flame may not appear yellow immedi-
ately; allow 15 to 30 minutes for the final flame colour to be
established.
AIR SHUTTER ADJUSTMENT MUST ONLY BE DONE BY
A QUALIFIED GAS INSTALLER!
