4 Safety Precautions
© Travis Industries 4091229 100-01246_000
Safety Warnings:
•Failure to follow all of the requirements may result in property damage, bodily injury, or even death.
•This unit must be installed by a qualified installer to prevent the possibility of an explosion.
•This appliance must be installed in accordance with all local codes, if any; if not, in U.S.A. follow
ANSI Z223.1 and NFPA 54(88).
•All exhaust gases must be vented outside the structure of the living-area. Combustion air is drawn
from outside the living-area structure. The venting must not be connected to a chimney flue serving a
separate solid-fuel burning appliance.
•Notify your insurance company before hooking up this fireplace.
•The fireplace should be inspected before use and at least annually by a qualified service person.
More frequent cleaning may be required due to excessive lint from carpeting, bedding material, etc.
•The instructions in this manual must be strictly adhered to. Do not use makeshift methods or
compromise in the installation. Improper installation will void the warranty and safety listing.
•This fireplace is approved for use with natural gas (NG) or propane (LP). Burning the incorrect fuel
will void the warranty and safety listing and may cause an extreme safety hazard. Direct questions
about the type of fuel used to your dealer.
•Contact your local building officials to obtain a permit and information on any installation restrictions
or inspection requirements in your area.
•If the flame becomes sooty, dark orange in color, or extremely tall, do not operate the fireplace. Call
your dealer and arrange for proper servicing.
•It is imperative that control compartments, screens, or circulating air passageways of the fireplace be
kept clean and free of obstructions. These areas provide the air necessary for safe operation.
•Do not operate the fireplace if it is not operating properly in any fashion or if you are uncertain. Call
your dealer for a full explanation of your fireplace and what to expect.
•Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable liquids in the vicinity of this fireplace.
•Do not operate if any portion of the fireplace was submerged in water or if any corrosion occurs.
Immediately call a qualified service technician to inspect the appliance and to replace any part of the
control system and any gas control which has been under water.
•Do not place clothing or other flammable items on or near the fireplace. Because this fireplace can
be controlled by a thermostat there is a possibility of the fireplace turning on and igniting any items
placed on or near it.
•Light the fireplace using the built-in igniter. Do not use matches or any other external device to light
your fireplace.
•Never remove, replace, modify or substitute any part of the fireplace unless instructions are given in
this manual. All other work must be done by a trained technician. Don't modify or replace orifices.
•The viewing glass should be opened only for conducting service.
•Any safety screen or guard removed for servicing must be replaced prior to operating the fireplace.

Safety Precautions 5
© Travis Industries 4091229 100-01246_000
Safety Warnings (continued):
•Allow the fireplace to cool before carrying out any maintenance or cleaning.
•Operate the fireplace according to the instructions included in this manual.
•If the main burners do not start correctly turn the gas off and call your dealer for service.
•This unit is not for use with solid fuel.
•Do not place anything inside the firebox (except the optional artwork).
•Do not throw this manual away. This manual has important operating and maintenance instructions
that you will need at a later time. Always follow the instructions in this manual.
•Children and adults should be alerted to the hazards of high surface temperature and should stay
away to avoid burns or clothing ignition. Do not touch the hot surfaces of the fireplace. Educate all
children of the danger of a high-temperature fireplace. Young children should be supervised when
they are in the same room as the fireplace.
•Toddlers, young children and others may be susceptible to accidental contact burns. A physical
barrier is recommended if there are at risk individuals in the house. To restrict access to a fireplace
or stove, install an adjustable safety gate to keep toddlers, young children and other at risk individuals
out of the room and away from hot surfaces.
•Due to the high temperature, the fireplace should be located out of traffic and away from furniture and
draperies.
•Instruct everyone in the house how to shut gas off to the appliance and at the gas main shutoff valve.
The gas main shutoff valve is usually next to the gas meter or propane tank and requires a wrench to
shut off.
•Travis Industries, Inc. grants no warranty, implied or stated, for the installation or
maintenance of your fireplace, and assumes no responsibility of any consequential
damage(s).

The 12’ (3.5M) long synchronization wire exits the
fireplace on the left side and has the switch pre-
installed.
Mount the junction box in a location that may be
reached by the 12’ (3.5M) long control wire.. This
junction box must be accessible after installation.
A closet or other hidden area may be the most
desirable location. This junction box is only
needed to re-program the remote and for initial
calibration of the exhaust blower (if needed).
Secure the synchronization wire to the junction box
