This fireplace is a vented product. This fireplace must be
properly installed by a qualified service person. The glass
door must be properly seated and sealed. If this unit is not
properly installed by a qualified service person with glass
door properly seated and sealed, combustion leakage can
occur.
 Early signs of carbon
monoxide poisoning are similar to the flu with headaches,
dizziness and/or nausea. If you have these signs, the fire-
place may not have been installed properly. Get fresh air
at once! Have the fireplace inspected and serviced by a
qualified service person. Some people are more affected
by carbon monoxide than others. These include pregnant
women, people with heart or lung disease or anemia,
those under the influence of alcohol, and those at high
altitudes.
Propane/LP gas and natural gas are both odorless. An
odor-making agent is added to each of these gases. The
odor helps you detect a gas leak. However, the odor added
to these gases can fade. Gas may be present even though
no odor exists.
Make certain you read and understand all warnings. Keep
this manual for reference. It is your guide to safe and proper
operation of this fireplace.
1. This appliance is only for use with the type of gas
indicated on the rating plate. This appliance is not
convertible for use with other gases unless a certified
kit is used.
. For propane/LP fireplace, do not place propane/LP
supply tank(s) inside any structure. Locate propane/
LP supply tank(s) outdoors. To prevent performance
problems, do not use propane/LP fuel tank of less than
100 gal. capacity.
3. If you smell gas
• shut off gas supply.
• do not try to light any appliance.
• do not touch any electrical switch; do not use any
phone in your building .
• immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbor’s
phone. Follow the gas supplier’s instructions.

It is best to build firebox framing the appliance is set in place. Refer to the dimensions for
your fireplace on Page 7. The framing headers may rest on the top of the firebox standoffs.
The firebox may be installed directly on a combustible floor or raised on a platform of an appropri-
ate height. Do not place firebox on carpeting, vinyl, or other soft floor coverings. It may, however,
be placed on a flat wood, plywood, particle board, or other hard surfaces. Be sure firebox rests on
a solid continuous floor or platform with appropriate framing for support. No cold air should enter
room from under the firebox.

5. Installation and any repairs to this fireplace should
be carried out by a qualified service person. A profes-
sional service person should be contacted to inspect

7. The venting system (chimney) of this fireplace should
be checked at least once a year and if needed your
venting system should be cleaned.
8. Keep the area around your fireplace clear of combus-
tible materials, gasoline and other flammable vapor and
liquids. This fireplace should not be used as a drying
rack for clothing, nor should Christmas stockings or
decorations be hung on or around the fireplace.
9. Under no circumstances should any solid fuels (wood,
coal, paper or cardboard etc.) be used in this fire-
place.
10. The flow of combustion and ventilation air must not be
obstructed in any way.

vinyl tile or any combustible material other than wood,
the fireplace must be installed on a metal or wood panel
extending the full width and depth of the fireplace.
1. This fireplace requires adequate ventilation and com-
bustion air to operate properly.
13. This fireplace must not be connected to a chimney flue
serving a separate solid fuel burning fireplace.
14. When the fireplace is not in use it is recommended that
the gas control valve be left in the “OFF” position.
This appliance has been approved for after-market
mobile home installations.
IMPORTANT:
PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING CAREFULLY
Remove any plastic from trim parts before turning the
fireplace ON.
It is normal for fireplaces fabricated of steel to give off some
expansion and/or contraction noises during the start up or
cool down cycle. Similar noises are found with your furnace
heat exchanger or car engine.
It is not unusual for your Majestic gas fireplace to give off
some odor the first time it is burned. This is due to the curing
of the paint and any undetected oil from the manufacturing
process.
Please ensure that your room is well ventilated — open
all windows.
It is recommended that you burn your Majestic fireplace
for a least ten (10) hours the first time you use it. If the
optional fan kit has been installed, place the fan switch in
the “OFF” position during this time.
