Replace the glass frame (and arch covers when using arched faces - see page 27).

Install the faceplate following the instructions included with the faceplate.

     :    Before installing the faceplate, make sure any masonry that has been

treated with acid wash has been properly neutralized (this is used primarily with brick faces).  Acid wash
(muriatic acid) is used to remove excess mortar.  If not properly neutralized with an ammonia solution,
the gold face may develop a permanent tarnish when the acid evaporates over time.  Contact your
dealer if uncertain your facing has been properly neutralized.

Check the pilot flame to make sure it looks like the illustration below.  Adjust the pilot flame if
necessary.

Standard 
Screwdriver

The pilot flame must contact the thermocouple and 

thermopile (see the illustration below).  Adjust the pilot up or 

down as necessary.

To adjust the pilot flame,  turn this screw (NOTE: if totally 

unscrewed gas will come out of this port).  Clockwise 

lowers the flame while counter-clockwise raises it.

Let the heater burn for fifteen minutes.  Adjust the air shutters, if necessary, to achieve the correct
looking flame (see the illustration below).

The air shutter adjusts the amount of air that mixes with the gas before it exits the burner holes.

Gas Control Valve

NOTE: If the air shutter is all the way 

open, yet the flames remain sooty, shut 

off gas to the fireplace and contact a 

qualified gas service technician.

Correct

Flames should be blue at the 

base, yellow-orange on the top.

If the flames are over 14" tall or sooty on 

the ends, open the air shutter.

Not Enough Air

If the flames are all blue and 

short, close the air shutter.

Too Much Air

NOTE: The logs must be installed correctly to 

monitor the flame while adjusting the air shutter.

Front Air 
Shutter Control

Pushing the control to the left gives the 

flame less air (making it more orange).  

Pushing to the right gives the flame more 

air, making it more blue.  For fine 

adjustments use a screwdriver to tap the 

air shutter.
