Flame Color & Behavior
Your Ravenna™ gas insert is designed for maximum heat-
ing efficiency. Therefore, upon lighting of the main burner
the flames will be semi-transparent or “bluish.” After 10-20
minutes of operation the logs will heat up and the flames
will become a yellow/orange color.
Adjusting  the  insert  to  cause  the  flames  to  turn  orange
sooner  may  result  in  poor  combustion,  sooting,  and  a
hazardous situation. See Figure 17 showing proper flame
appearance.
When testing for proper operation - If an optional thermo-
stat is installed adjust it to its highest temperature setting.
Visually determine that main burner gas is burning properly:
i.e., no floating, lifting or flashback. Adjust the primary air
shutter(s) as required. Check for proper main burner opera-
tion at both high and low flame.

Paint Curing
This insert has  been  painted with  StoveBright high  tem-
perature metallic stove paint. It leaves the factory dry to
the  touch,  but  finishes  curing  as  the  insert  is  used.  Fire
the insert four successive times for ten minutes each time
with a five minute cool down between each firing. Ventilate
the house during these first firings as the paint gives off an
unpleasant odor. It is recommended that persons sensitive
to an imbalance in the indoor air quality avoid the insert
during the curing process.
Quiet Operation
As the Ravenna™ gas insert is burning, a number of normal
operational sounds may be heard. The flow of gas through the
gas valve and orifice may make a rushing or whistling noise.
If this noise is objectionable, it can be reduced by turning
down the flame. Turning down the flame can reduce total
heat output by more than 30%. When the blower turns on,
the sound of rushing air may be heard. The blower sounds
may be reduced by adjusting the speed control located on
the blower assembly. Also, a slight clicking sound may be
heard as the gas valve or blower switch turn on and off.
Blower Operation
Your Ravenna gas insert comes equipped with a 150 CFM
blower  with  a  variable  speed  control  and  an  automatic
temperature activated On/Off snap switch.
o
peration
:
1. Plug the blower power cord into a grounded (three-prong)
outlet.  This  appliance  is  equipped  with  a  three-prong
(grounding) plug for your protection against shock hazard
and should be plugged directly into a properly grounded
three-prong receptacle. Do not cut or remove the ground-
ing prong from this plug.
2. After the insert warms up, the fan will turn on if the speed
control (located at the right below the firebox) is left in
the "ON" position. The fan will not operate until the insert
is warm.
3. Once the fan turns on, turn the knob to the desired speed.
No further adjustment is necessary.
4. If you do not wish to have the fan on, turn the knob until
it clicks into the "OFF" position.
Optional Wall Thermostat
If an optional wall thermostat is to be installed, install the
thermostat per the manufacturers instructions (provided with
the thermostat). Failure to follow manufacturers instructions
could result in a malfunction. Pay special attention to the
thermostat location requirements. If the location require-
ments are not adhered to the appliance, erratic operation
or failure may occur.
Do not mount the thermostat where it may be affected by:
•  Radiant heat from this appliance, fireplaces, sun or other
heat sources.
•  Drafts or dead spots behind doors or in corners.
•  Hot or cold air from ducts.
