INTRODUCTION
The millivolt appliances are designed to oper-
ateoneithernaturalorpropanegas.Amillivolt
gas control valve with piezo ignition system
provides safe, efficient operation.
The electronic appliances are designed to op-
erate on either natural or propane gas. An
electronic intermittent pilot system provides
safe, efficient operation. External electrical
power is required to operate these units.
GENERAL INFORMATION
Note: Installation and repair should be per-
formedbyaqualifiedserviceperson.Theappli-
ance should be inspected annually by a quali-
fied professional service technician. More fre-
quent inspections and cleanings may be re-
quired due to excessive lint from carpeting,
bedding material, etc. It is imperative that the
control compartment, burners and circulating
airpassagewaysoftheappliancebekeptclean.

Test gage connections are provided on the
front of the millivolt gas control valves (identi-
fied OUT for the manifold side and IN for inlet
pressure side for both SIT and Honeywell
equipped appliances. A ¹⁄₈" NPT test gage
connection is provided on the electronic gas

Carbon Monoxide Poisoning: Early signs of
carbon monoxide poisoning are similar to
the flu with headaches, dizziness and/or
nausea. If you have these signs, obtain fresh
air immediately. Turn off the gas supply to
the appliance and have it serviced by a
qualified professional, as it may not be op-
erating correctly.

DAMPER AND OUTSIDE AIR CONTROLS
This appliance is fitted with a manually con-
trolled vent damper. The vent damper should
be closed when the appliance is not in use to
preventcoldairfromenteringthehomethrough
the venting system. The damper is controlled
throughtheuseofacontrolleverlocatedwithin
theapplianceopening at thetopcenter in front
ofthefireboxlintel
(see Figure 5 ) . Thecontrol
lever snaps into place at either extreme of its
range of motion. When locked in position all
thewaytothe right,thedamperisopen. When
locked in position all the way to the left, the
damper is closed.
The damper lever actuates a switch, (see wir-
ing diagram) which will prevent the appliance
main burner from lighting unless the damper
is locked open. The appliance flue damper
must always remain open when operating.

Many appliances are equipped when installed
withanoutside(make-upair)ventsystemthat
is designed to provide the appliance with
outside make-up air for combustion when in
operation. The shut-off lever for the outside
air system is standard on all appliances but
shouldnotbeoperatedifthecompletesystem
is not installed. Refer to
Figure 5 . When the
complete outside air vent system is installed,
the installer will remove the cover from the
shut-off lever located in the left side of the
firebox opening.
If your cover is not removed and you have
reason to believe that you have a complete
outsideairsystem,contactyourdistributorto
have your appliance inspected for the pres-
enceofthecompletesystem. DONOTassume
that you have this system in place.
Thehandoperatedshut-offleverislocatedinthe

damper should be fully open when the fireplace
is in use and completely closed when the fire-
placeisnotbeingused. Thiswillpreventoutside
cold air from entering the dwelling.
Burner Adjustments
Flame Appearance and Sooting
Proper flame appearance is a matter of taste.
Generallymostpeoplepreferthewarmglowof
a yellow to orange flame. Appliances operated
with air shutter openings that are too large, or
with long vertical vent runs, will exhibit flames
thatareblueandtransparent.Theseweak,blue
and transparent flames are termed anemic.
If the air shutter opening is too small sooting
may develop. Sooting is indicated by black
puffsdevelopingatthetipsofverylongorange
flames.Sootingresultsinblackdepositsform-
ing on the logs, appliance inside surfaces and
onexterior surfacesadjacenttotheventtermi-
nation. Sooting is caused by incomplete com-
bustioninthe flames andalack of combustion
air entering the air shutter opening.
Toachieveawarmyellowtoorangeflamewith
an orange body that does not soot, the shutter
opening must be adjusted between these two
extremes.
No smoke or soot should be present. Reposi-
tionthelogsetiftheflames impinge on any of
them.
If sooting conditions exist, the air shutter
opening on the main burner can be adjusted.
Normally,themoreoffsetsintheventsystem,
the greater the need for the air shutter to be
opened further.
MANUALLY-RESET BLOCKED FLUE SAFETY
SWITCH
This appliance is equipped with a manually-
reset blocked flue safety switch. Refer to
Figure 6 for its location. If during appliance
operation,theflamegoesout(independently
of the burner on/off wall switch), it may be
due to the operation of this safety limit
switch. First allow the appliance to cool,
then reset the safety switch by pushing the
red reset button.
This reset button is located on the back of the
limit switch, between the wire terminals ( see
Detail A of Figure 21 ).
The appliance should then relight and remain
lit. If this does not occur, turn off the appli-
ance and call a qualified service technician.
Maintenance
The appliance and venting system should be
thoroughly inspected before initial use and at
least annually by a qualified service techni-
cian. Propermaintenanceandusewillrequire
morefrequent,lessextensiveinspectionsand
servicing by the homeowner.
Generally, annual inspections should be per-
formedbyaqualifiedservicetechnician. More
frequent periodic inspections and cleanings
shouldbeperformed by thehomeowner. Any
discrepancies discovered by the homeowner
should result in a call to a qualified service
technician to effect the repair or correction.
Refertothemaintenancescheduleformainte-
nance tasks, procedures, periodicity and by
whom they should be performed.
