"OFF" position to turn off the pilot.
The first fire in your insert is part of the paint
curing process. To ensure that the paint is
properly cured, it is recommended that you
burn your fireplace for at least four (4) hours
the first time you use it with the fan on. When
first operated, the unit will release an odour
caused by the curing of the paint, the burning
off of any oils remaining from manufacturing.
Smoke detectors in the house may go off at
this time. Open a few windows to ventilate the
room for a couple of hours.
3) Turn off all electric power to appliance if
service is to be performed.
LIGHTING
PROCEDURE
IMPORTANT
To ignite or reignite the pilot,
you must first release the ten-
sion springs below the door.
The glass panel may require cleaning
after the unit has cooled down.
NOTE: For all propane units and units
equipped with electric spark boxes,
see "Copy of Lighting Plate Instruc-
tions" section for more details.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CLEAN THE
GLASS WHILE IT IS HOT.
Only when the pilot holds, without pressure
being applied to the control knob, reapply the
tension springs to the door. The unit must
not be operated with the tension springs
unattached.
Note: When the glass is cold and the
appliance is lit, it may cause
condensation and fog the glass.
This condensation is normal and
will disappear in a few minutes as
the glass heats up.

Blower:
FPI gas appliances use high tech blowers to
push heated air farther into the room. It is not
unusual for the fan to make a "whirring" sound
when ON. This sound will increase or decrease
in volume depending on the speed setting of
your fan speed control.

are temperature changes within the unit these
sounds will likely re-occur. Again, this is normal
for steel fireboxes.

When this thermally activated switch turns ON
it will create a small "clicking" sound. This is the

C L O T H I N G O R O T H E R
FLAMMABLEMATERIALSHOULD
NOT BE PLACED ON OR NEAR
THE APPLIANCE.
Conduct an inspection of the venting system
semi-annually. Recommended areas to inspect
as follows:
1) Always turn the gas valve to off before
cleaning. For relighting, refer to lighting
instructions. Keep the burner and control
compartment clean by brushing and
vacuuming at least once a year.
6) Each time the appliance is lit, it may cause
condensation and fog the glass. This
condensation and fog is normal and will
disappear in a few minutes as the glass
heats up.
1) ChecktheVentingSystemforcorrosioninareas
that are exposed to the elements. These will
appear as rust spots or streaks, and in extreme
cases, holes. These components should be
replaced immediately.
When cleaning the logs, use a clean soft

damaged.
Never operate the appliance without the
glass properly secured in place or with
the door open.
2) Clean (never when unit is hot) appliance,
door and louvers with a damp cloth. Never
use an abrasive cleaner. The gold louvers
(and optional gold door) may be scratched
if abrasives are used to clean them.
The heater is finished in a heat resistant
paint and should only be refinished with
heat resistant paint (not with wall paint).
FPI uses StoveBrite Paint - Metallic Black
#6309.
2) Remove the Termination Cap, and shine a
flashlight down the Vent. Remove any bird
nests, or other foreign material.
7) Do not use this appliance if any part has
been under water. Immediately call a
qualified service technician to inspect the
appliance and to replace nay part of the
control system and any gas control which
has been under water.
3) Checkforevidencesofexcessivecondensation,
such as water droplets forming in the inner
liner, and subsequently dripping out the joints,
Continuous condensation can cause corrosion
of caps, pipe, and fittings. It may be caused
by having excessive lateral runs, too many
elbows, and exterior portions of the system
being exposed to cold weather.
8) Periodically check the pilot flames. Correct

LOG REPLACEMENT
Theunitshouldneverbeusedwithbrokenlogs.Turn
off the gas valve and allow the unit to cool before
opening door to carefully remove the logs. The pilot
light generates enough heat to burn someone. If
for any reason a log should need replacement, you
must use the proper replacement log. The position
of these logs must be as shown in the diagram
under Log Installation.
During the annual service call, the burners
should be removed from the burner tray
and cleaned. Replace the embers but do
not block the pilot.
5) Keep the area near the appliance clear and
free from combustible materials, gasoline
and other flammable vapours and liquids.
