CONGRATULATIONS
You are the owner of a world-class heat producing gas direct vent sealed combustion fireplace insert.
This elegant, highly efficient Fireplace will be a constant source of comfort and fascination. It will be the focal point of
beauty and interest in your home.
The Mendota Gas Fireplace insert is a true heating appliance incorporating the traditional aesthetics of fireplace fire view-
ing with the controllability and fuel efficiency of a home gas furnace. Of particular interest is the low fuel consumption and
brilliant fire viewing afforded by the realistic Premium Fiber wood fire-like combustion system.
Carefully read the following instructions prior to actual installation. Proper Mendota Gas Fireplace insert installation and
operation will give you years of safe, trouble free comfort and enjoyment.
If you have any questions regarding installation or operation of your Mendota Fireplace insert please contact your local
dealer.
...CAUTION...
Due to high temperatures, the Fireplace insert should be located away from furniture and draperies. Children and adults
should be alerted to the hazards of high surface temperature and should stay away to avoid burns or clothing ignition.
Young children should be carefully supervised when they are in the same room as the Mendota Gas Fireplace insert.
Clothing or other flammable material should not be placed on or near the Fireplace insert.
Any safety screen or guard removed for servicing an appliance must be replaced prior to operating this appliance.
This Mendota Gas Fireplace Insert is a powerful and efficient heating unit. It has been designed as a major source of
supplemental heat. As with any mechanical appliance there can be component shut downs. It is advisable to have an
alternate heat supply.
Installation, repair and any adjustments to logs or burner must be done by a qualified service person. The appliance
should be inspected before use and at least annually by a professional service person. More frequent cleaning may be
required due to excessive lint from carpeting, bedding material, carbon build-up, etc. It is imperative that control com-
partments, burners and circulating air passageways of the appliance be kept clean. The burner and pilot flames and logs
should be visually checked periodically.
DO NOT use this appliance if any part has been under water or exposed to moisture corrosion. Immediately call a quali-
fied service technician to inspect the Fireplace and replace any part of the control system and any gas control, which has
been under water. DO NOT use this fireplace if the burner does not light immediately. Turn unit off and call Mendota ap-
proved service person if there is any delay in burner light off.
It is Johnson Gas Appliance Company's policy that no responsibility is assumed by the Company or by any of its em-
ployees or representatives for any damages caused by an inoperable, inadequate, or unsafe condition which is the result,
either directly or indirectly, of any improper operation, installation or servicing procedures.
Building Permit and Installation Inspection Approval Requirements
All installations of Mendota Fireplaces and Inserts must comply with all the requirements stated in this Installation and
Operating Instructions Manual. The Dealer and/or installer must also obtain all required Building Permits and Inspection
Approval from the local building inspection department or the local body having jurisdiction. In order to validate warranty
coverage, Mendota may require facsimile copies of the Building Permit and Inspection Approval forms. Failure to provide
adequate proof that the installation conforms to all local requirements and the requirements stated in the Installation and
Operating Instructions Manual will void all applicable warranty.
INSTALLER: THESE INSTRUCTIONS ARE TO REMAIN WITH HOMEOWNER.
HIGH ALTITUDE INSTALLATION INFORMATION: Prior to installing at altitudes higher than 7500, please con-
tact the Mendota technical service department for specific venting requirements and venting restrictions.

“FIRST TIME” PILOT LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT: Be sure all items on "INSTALLATION CHECK OFF LIST" in the Installation Manual have been completed!
CAUTION: If the pilot goes out, be sure to wait a minimum of five minutes before attempting to relight the pilot.
1. Make certain that any manual gas supply shut-off valves located upstream of fireplace are open and the receiver and the remote
control transmitter are in the "OFF" position. Make certain that the receiver harness is connected to the receiver properly.
2. Make certain that 120VAC power cord is connected to an electrical outlet.
3. Insert Batteries in the Receiver and the Remote Transmitter. Note the polarity of batteries and insert as indicated on the battery
compartment cover.
4. For the “First Time Lighting”, Remove the Glass Door. This is required to purge the gas line of air and to inspect the pilot light-
ing spark.
5. Slide the receiver switch to “REMOTE”. Locate the “Standing Pilot ON/OFF Switch”. See Figure, above. Toggle “Standing Pilot
ON/OFF Switch” to “ON”. You will hear a series of clicks and after a few seconds, you will hear sparking at the pilot spark elec-
trode.
6. Allow adequate time for the air in the gas-line to purge. The control system will stop sparking after 30 seconds if the pilot light
does not light. After a 30 second delay the control system will start sparking again for 30 seconds more. If the pilot light does not
light after the third 30 second spark event, the system will enter “Lock-out” mode. To unlock from “Lock-out” mode, slide Re-
ceiver Switch to “OFF”, wait 30 seconds and slide back to “Remote”. Repeat this sequence until the pilot flame lights and the pi-
lot is burning steadily.
LOCK OUT MODE: If the pilot light does not light after the third 30 second spark event, the system will enter “Lock-out” mode. To
unlock from “Lock-out” mode, slide Receiver Switch to “OFF”, wait 30 seconds and slide back to “Remote”.
7. Once the pilot flame is lit and well-established, close glass door. WARNING: NEVER IGNITE MAIN BURNERS WITH
GLASS DOOR REMOVED OR OPEN. Doing so will lead to damage to pilot flame sensor and spark electrode wire leads.
8. Slide switch on Receiver to “ON”. All burners should ignite and run at “high-fire”. Slide Receiver switch to REMOTE after 15
seconds. Burner Flames will extinguish.
9. Perform gas inlet and outlet pressure tests and leak tests on field installed gas fittings and factory installed fittings in the gas valve
compartment, at this time. Note: Burners must be ON to check outlet pressures and to leak test gas train fittings upstream of main
gas valve.

INITIALIZING THE REMOTE CONTROL SYSTEM
(Synchronizing Receiver and Transmitter)
1. Place 3-position slider switch in Receiver in
the “Remote” position.
2. Locate “PRG” key on Receiver Face. Use
the tip of a pen/pencil or a wire clip to push
the PRG button. The receiver will beep 3
times indicating that it is ready to synchron-
ize with a Remote Transmitter.
3. Push the “ON” key on the Remote Trans-
mitter. The receiver will beep 4 times to in-
dicate that the Transmitter’s command is
accepted and sets to the particular code of
that Transmitter. The system is now initia-
lized.
NOTE: Use this Synchronizing procedure every
time the batteries are replaced in the Receiver
or the Transmitter.
IPI/STANDING PILOT SYSTEM INFORMATION
Intermittent Pilot Light and Standing Pilot Light Features
This gas fireplace is equipped with an electronic ignition System that first
lights a pilot light then uses the pilot light to ignite the main burners. The
pilot light can be set in the “Standing Pilot” mode to allow the pilot light to
remain on indefinitely by toggling the “Standing Pilot Switch” to the ON posi-
tion. If the “Standing Pilot Switch” is toggled to the OFF position, the pilot
light will only light and remain ON while the main fireplace burners are oper-
ating.
IPI Mode: This mode turns the pilot light “OFF” when the fireplace is not
functioning and only lights the pilot light automatically when a
call for heat is made by the remote control.
Standing Pilot Mode:If the “Standing Pilot Switch” is toggled to ON,
the pilot light will ignite and remain ON as long as the “Stand-
ing Pilot Light Switch” is in the ON position.
NOTE: Mendota Fireplaces recommends that the Standing Pilot Mode
be used during the winter months when external temperatures fall be-
low 50oF. This will keep the fireplace chimney heated for proper updraft dur-
ing burner ignition and it will also eliminate excessive condensation of
exhaust vapors on the door glass. Further, leaving the fireplace in the
Standing Pilot Mode will keep the fireplace body warm and eliminate cold drafts and heat loss to the cold air that is
trapped inside the firebox.

BLOWER OPERATION AND WIRING
WARNING: The Power Cord supplied with this appliance must be connected to a 3-prong grounded LIVE out-
let. No switches, Light Dimmers or Fan Speed Control Devices are allowed within the same electric circuit as
this appliance. Connect only to a LIVE outlet that is not controlled by any other switching device.
Dual blowers are provided as standard equipment with this FV-33i Insert. The dual blowers have an air output rating of
210 CFM (in free air). This Insert is designed to operate with the blowers turned OFF or ON. Turning the blower on
increases the overall efficiency of this fireplace and aids in distributing and circulating heat to the room this Insert is
installed in.
BLOWER BREAK-IN PERIOD: The integrated blowers in this Insert may exhibit some bearing noise and electrical
static noise during the first few hours of operation. This is normal during the break-in period. It is recommended that
following the Paint Curing Cycle, the blowers be run at their maximum speed for two 3-hour periods. The burner flames
may be on or off during these cycles. The blowers in a few inserts may take longer to break-in and may require addi-
tional operation time before all extraneous noise is eliminated. Please allow adequate operational time for the blowers
to break-in before you contact your dealer for service.
BLOWER OPERATION
The remote control system supplied with this appliance can turn the blowers ON or OFF and regulate the speed of the
blowers in six (6) steps.
NOTE: In the Normal Thermostat Mode and the SMART Mode, there will be a time delay in blower operation during
"heat-up" (5 minutes) and extended blower operation during "cool-down" of unit (12-1/2 minutes).
The blowers are ideal for owners who wish to maximize the heating capacity and efficiency of Mendota Gas Fireplaces.
The blowers greatly increase total heating capacity by forcefully moving hot air away from the fireplace and mantel area
and out into the room. The blowers increase the overall efficiency of the Mendota units by up to 5%.
WARNING: LABEL ALL WIRES PRIOR TO DISCONNECTION WHEN SERVICING CONTROLS. WIRING ERRORS CAN
CAUSE IMPROPER AND DANGEROUS OPERATION. VERIFY OPERATION AFTER SERVICING.
This appliance is equipped with a three-prong (grounding) plug for protection against shock hazard and
should be plugged directly into a properly grounded three-prong receptacle. Do not cut or remove the
grounding prong from the plug.

MENDOTA EXTENDED LIFETIME PROTECTION AND LIMITED WARRANTY
MENDOTA FV33I DIRECT VENT FIREPLACE INSERT
Mendota Division of Johnson Gas Appliance Company, 520 E Avenue N.W. Cedar Rapids, Iowa 52405, extends this Extended Lifetime Protection and Li-
mited Warranty to the original purchaser of a Mendota FV33I Fireplace, which is limited and used under normal home conditions.
STANDARD WARRANTY:
JOHNSON GAS APPLIANCE CO., MENDOTA DIVISION, WARRANTS THAT YOUR NEW MENDOTA FIREPLACE IS FREE FROM
MANUFACTURING AND MATERIAL DEFECTS FOR A PERIOD OF ONE YEAR FROM THE DATE OF INSTALLATION, SUBJECT TO THE
FOLLOWING CONDITIONS AND LIMITATIONS:
EXTENDED LIFETIME WARRANTY:
THE HEAT EXCHANGER, BURNER TUBE COMBUSTION CHAMBER AND OUTER SHIELD OF THE MENDOTA FV33I FIREPLACE ARE
WARRANTED FOR THE LIFETIME OF THE ORIGINAL OWNER, SUBJECT TO PROOF OF PURCHASE AND THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS
AND LIMITATIONS:
1) This new Mendota Fireplace must be installed & serviced by a competent, authorized service contractor. It must be installed and operated at all times
in accordance with the installation and operating instructions furnished with the Fireplace. All adjustments to logs, coals or burner must be made by
an authorized Mendota person. Any alteration, willful abuse, accident or misuse of the product shall nullify this warranty. This warranty does not
cover glass or log breakage.
This limited warranty does not cover the cost of service calls, the cost of labor to remove or install parts covered by this limited warranty, freight or
other transportation expenses, which may be incurred in connection with obtaining performances under this limited warranty. The remedy for dam-
ages as the result of any defects in this product which have been warranted herein is limited to replacement parts and does not include any incidental,
indirect or consequential damages or expenses sustained in connection with the product, including damages to property, except as provided by law.
2) This warranty is non-transferable and is made to the original retail purchaser, provided the purchase was made through an authorized Mendota dealer.
Mendota is not responsible for any damage to or malfunction of the Fireplace unless caused by a defect in material or workmanship from normal
home use. Damage caused by abuse, improper installation, improper servicing, and installation by unqualified personnel or breech of conditions of
this limited warranty will excuse Mendota from performance of any part of this limited warranty. Mendota has the right to investigate and inspect the
exact, original Fireplace and entire installation (without any alterations or tampering) in the event a claim is made to determine whether the claimed
damage or malfunction was caused by abuse, improper installation or other cause outside this warranty. Mendota is not responsible for any repairs
or material purchases that have not received prior written approval from Mendota.
NOTE: Minor warping of certain parts or discoloration is normal and is not a defect covered by this warranty. Major warping of parts can be caused by
over-firing of your Mendota Fireplace. Over-firing above rated nameplate specification is as contrary to the manufacturer's instructions and may
void this warranty.
This warranty may not be extended by our representatives or any third party in any manner. The company neither assumes, nor authorizes any third
party to assume, on its behalf, any other liabilities with respect to the sale of this Mendota product.
3) Mendota may at its discretion, fully discharge all obligations of this warranty by refunding the wholesale price of the defective part(s).
4) All other warranties - expressed or implied - with respect to the product, its components and accessories, or any obligation/liabilities on the part of the
company are hereby expressly excluded. Products made by other manufacturers, sold with the Fireplace or thereafter, are not covered by this limited
warranty. The use of unauthorized components will make this warranty null and void.
This warranty shall be effective only if the original purchaser of the Mendota appliance is registered with Mendota Division within thirty (30) days of the
date of purchase. Such registration or the failure to register shall not be deemed to create any obligation or liability by the manufacturer and this warranty
with its conditions and limitations shall be the only procedure for obtaining any rights against the manufacturer and expresses the sole obligation and re-
sponsibilities of the manufacturer which are offered to the original purchaser and accepted upon purchase of the appliance.
Mendota Division, reserves the right to make changes at any time without notice, in design, material, specifications, prices and the right to discontinue styles
and products.
Some states do not allow the exclusion of limitation of incidental or consequential damages or limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the
above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights and you may also have other rights which vary from state
to state.
