sheet covering the front of the unit. This
sheet is intended to prevent dust and
debris from entering during construction.

until the final installation is complete.
The log set was installed on the grate
and the grate permanently fixed to the
firebox at the factory.
Carefully remove the packaging from
around the log set. Make sure the wires
from the log set are connected securely
to the grate box.
CAUTION: The Realogs™ contain
LEDs to create a unique pulse and glow
effect. Handle the log set carefully. They are
