seleCtING loCAtIoN
To determine the safest and most efficient Corner installations make use of space
location for your appliance, you must take into that may not normally be used and provides
consideration the following guidelines:
a wider and more efficient range for radiant
heat transference.
1. The location must allow for proper clear-
ances (see Clearances, page 7).
Internal wall installations provide a discreet
option for room separation and can also be
ideal as an addition to an existing wall.
2. Consider a location where heat output
would not be affected by drafts, air con-
ditioning ducts, windows or doors.
CORNER
3. A location that avoids the cutting of joists
or roof rafters will make installation easier.
Figure 1 shows a plan view of a few com-
mon locations.
INSTALLATION
INTERNAL WALL
INSTALLATION
Flush installations are recommended where
living space is limited or at a premium and
since the space required to enclose the ap-
pliance would be located beyond an outside
wall, this would also reduce the cutting of
joists, roof rafters and such. Check local
codes for any restrictions.

must be maintained.
The examples shown in Figure 9 are typi-
cal of most B-vent installations and codes
practices.
Vent terminations must be located in ac-
cordance with height and proximity rules of
NFPA No. 54. These rules apply to vents at
12" diameter or less and require a minimum
height in accordance with the roof pitch and a
minimum of 8 feet distance from a vertical wall

After completing and checking electrical,
gas and vent connections, follow lighting
instructions and allow main burner to run
for approximately 5 minutes. Hold a lighted
match or cigarette near top edge of fireplace
opening and play it along entire length of
the opening (see Figure 12). Proper venting
should tend to draw the flame or smoke into
the appliance. Improper venting or escaping
of spillage of burned gas, is indicated when
the match flickers or goes out. Smoke from a
cigarette will also tend to disperse away from
the appliance.
Note: Before connecting this appliance to an
existing vent system or a common venting
system consult with your local architect, plan-
ner, or building official.

don’t smell gas, go to the next step.
A. This appliance has a pilot which must
be lighted by hand. When lighting
the pilot, follow these instructions
exactly.
B. BEFORE LIGHTING smell all around
the appliance area for gas. Be sure to

• Do not touch any electric switch; do
not use any phone in your building.
• Immediately call your gas supplier
from a neighbor’s phone. Follow the
gas supplier’s instructions.
13. Visually locate the pilot. The ignitor should
begin to spark and the main burner should
ignite once flame appears at pilot.
• If lighting the appliance for the first time
each season, it may take several at-
tempts before the supply gas can reach
the pilot and main burners.
• If you cannot reach your gas supplier,
call the fire department.
C. Use only your hand to push in or turn
the gas control knob. Never use tools.
If the knob will not push in or turn by
hand, don’t try to repair it, call a quali-
fied service technician or gas supplier.
Force or attempted repair may result in
a fire or explosion.

INsPeCtING BurNers
Check pilot flame pattern and burner flame
patterns often.
BURNER FLAME PATTERN
Burner flames will be steady, not lifting or float-
ing. Flames should go up through the middle
of log set. Flames should not "spill" to edges
of pan or sides of log set.
PILOT ASSEMBLY
The pilot assembly is factory preset for the
proper flame. Alterations may have occurred
during shipping and handling. The pilot is lo-
cated on the back right hand side of burner.
Figure 37 shows a typical flame pattern. If burn-
er flame pattern differs from that described:
• turn appliance off (see To Turn Off Gas to
Appliance, above)
The flame must envelope 1/4" of top of the
ignitor/sensor and grounding stem.
• see Troubleshooting, page 22
If your pilot assembly does not meet these
requirements:
• Turn adjustment screw marked PILOT
clockwise to decrease or counterclockwise
to increase flame to proper size (see Figure
36). Do not remove adjustment screw.

Standard Warranty: FMI PRODUCTS, LLC warrants this new product and any parts thereof to be free
from defects in material and workmanship for a period of four (4) year from the date of first purchase from

For products purchased for commercial, industrial or rental usage, this warranty is limited to 90 days from
the date of first purchase.
Factory Reconditioned Products
Limited Warranty: FMI PRODUCTS, LLC warrants factory reconditioned products and any parts thereof
to be free from defects in material and workmanship for 30 days from the date of first purchase from an
authorized dealer provided the product has been installed, maintained and operated in accordance with
FMI PRODUCTS, LLC’s warnings and instructions.
Terms Common to All Warranties
The following terms apply to all of the above warranties:
Always specify model number and serial number when contacting the manufacturer. To make a claim under
this warranty the bill of sale or other proof of purchase must be presented.
This warranty is extended only to the original retail purchaser when purchased from an authorized dealer,
and only when installed by a qualified installer in accordance with all local codes and instructions furnished
with this product.
This warranty covers the cost of part(s) required to restore this product to proper operating condition and
an allowance for labor when provided by a FMI PRODUCTS, LLC Authorized Service Center or a provider
approved by FMI PRODUCTS, LLC. Warranty parts must be obtained through authorized dealers of this
product and/or FMI PRODUCTS, LLC who will provide original factory replacement parts. Failure to use
original factory replacement parts voids this warranty.
Travel, handling, transportation, diagnostic, material, labor and incidental costs associated with warranty
repairs, unless expressly covered by this warranty, are not reimbursable under this warranty and are the
responsibility of the owner.
Excluded from this warranty are products or parts that fail or become damaged due to misuse, accidents,
improper installation, lack of proper maintenance, tampering, or alteration(s).
This is FMI PRODUCTS, LLC’s exclusive warranty, and to the full extent allowed by law; this express war-
ranty excludes any and all other warranties, express or implied, written or verbal and limits the duration of
any and all implied warranties, including warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose to
four (4) year on new products and 30 days on factory reconditioned products from the date of first purchase.
FMI PRODUCTS, LLC makes no other warranties regarding this product.
FMI PRODUCTS, LLC’s liability is limited to the purchase price of the product, and FMI PRODUCTS, LLC
shall not be liable for any other damages whatsoever under any circumstances including indirect, incidental,
or consequential damages.
Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts or the exclusion or limitation of
incidental or consequential damages, 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.
