9) Connect the 2nd liner to the exhaust collar
marked with an "E", seal connection with hightemperature silicone. Secure with gear clamp.
NOTES:
1) Final gas connection should be made after
unit is in place to avoid damage to line whenpushing the unit into position.
2) Mill-pac may be used instead of hightemperature silicone and screws may be usedinstead of gear clamps at connections of liner
to inlet and vent collars.

The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply
piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas
supply piping system at test pressures equal to orless than 1/2 psig. (3.45 kPa). Disconnect pipingfrom valve at pressures over 1/2 psig.

Note: Aeration Adjustment should only
be performed by an authorized FPI
Installer at the time of installation orservice.

The manifold pressure is controlled by a regulator
built into the gas control, and should be checkedat the pressure test point.
Note: To properly check gas pressure, both
inlet and manifold pressures should bechecked using the valve pressure portson the valve.
1) Make sure the valve is in the "OFF" position.
2) Loosen the "IN" and/or "OUT" pressure tap(s),turning counterclockwise with a 1/8" wide flatscrewdriver.
3) Attach manometer to "IN" and/or "OUT"
pressure tap(s) using a 5/16" ID hose.
4) Light the pilot and turn the valve to "ON" position.
5) The pressure check should be carried out withthe unit burning and the setting should be within
the limits specified on the safety label.

PROCEDURE

Before operating this appliance, proceed throughthe following check list.

IMPORTANT
To ignite or reignite the pilot, youmust first remove the glass door.

1) Read and understand these Instructions before
operating this appliance.
2) Check to see that all wiring is correct andenclosed to prevent possible shock.
3) Check to ensure there are no gas leaks.
4) Make sure the glass door is in place. Never
operate the appliance with the door glass
removed.
5) Verify that all venting and the cap isunobstructed.
6) Verify log placement. If the pilot cannot be seen
when lighting the unit - the logs or the embers
have been incorrectly positioned.
7) The unit should never be turned off and on
again without a minimum of a 60 second wait.
8) When lighting the appliance, the inside of theglass may fog up. This will burn off after a few
minutes of operation.

DO NOT BURN THE APPLIANCE WITH
THE GLASS ASSEMBLY REMOVED.

1) Press and release on ON/OFF button once
on the remote control or ON/OFF switch.
2) After approximately 4 seconds the spark
ignition system will spark for 60 seconds tolight the main burner.
3) The unit will turn on.
Note: The first try for ignition will last approximately 60 seconds. If there is no flame ignition(rectification) the board will stop sparking for
approximately 35 seconds. After wait time ,the board will start second try for ignition by
sparking for approximately 60 seconds . If
there is still no positive ignition the board will
go into lock out.

FIRST FIRE
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 thepaint, the burning off of any oils remaining frommanufacturing. Smoke detectors in the house may
go off at this time. Open a few windows to ventilate
the room for a couple of hours.

The glass panel may require cleaning
after the unit has cooled down.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CLEAN THE
GLASS WHILE IT IS HOT.
Note: When the glass is cold and the applianceis 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.

DO NOT BURN THE APPLIANCEWITHOUT THE GLASS FRONT IN
PLACE.

The system will need to be reset as follows:a) Turn the system off using ON/OFF switch orpress ON/OFF button - if using optional remote.
b) After approximately 2 seconds turn on ON/
OFF switch or press ON/OFF button if using
optional remote.
c) Repeat step 2.

During the first few fires, a white film
may develop on the glass front as partof the curing process. The glass should
be cleaned or the film will bake on andbecome very difficult to remove. Use a
non-abrasive cleaner and NEVER clean
the glass while it is hot.

SHUTDOWNPROCEDURE
1) Turn the wall mounted switch or remote to the"OFF" position.
2) Press "OFF" on the remote control.
3) Turn the gas control knob to the "OFF" position
to turn off the pilot.

FPI gas appliances use high tech blowers topush heated air farther into the room. It is not
unusual for the fan to make a "whirring" soundwhen ON. This sound will increase or decreasein volume depending on the speed setting ofyour fan speed control.
Burner Tray:
The burner tray is positioned directly underthe burner tube(s) and crystals and is madeof a different gauge material from the rest of
the firebox and body. Therefore, the varying
thicknesses of steel will expand and contract atslightly different rates which can cause "ticking"and "cracking" sounds. You should also be awarethat as there are temperature changes within
the unit these sounds will likely re-occur. Again,
this is normal for steel fireboxes.

MAINTENANCE
INSTRUCTIONS
1) Always turn the gas valve to off before cleaning.
For relighting, refer to lighting instructions. Keep
the burner and control compartment clean bybrushing and vacuuming at least once a year.
When cleaning the logs, use a clean soft
paint brush as the logs are fragile and easily
damaged.
2) Clean (never when unit is hot) appliance, door
and faceplate with a damp cloth. Never use an
abrasive cleaner. The finishes on the door frame
and faceplate may be scratched if abrasives
are used to clean them.
The heater is finished in a heat resistant paintand should only be refinished with heat resistantpaint (not with wall paint). FPI uses StoveBrite
Paint - Metallic Black #6309.
3) Make a periodic check of burner for proper
position and condition. Visually check theflame of the burner periodically, making surethe flames are steady; not lifting or floating.
If there is a problem, call a qualified service
person.
4) The appliance and venting system must be
inspected before use, and at least annually,
by a qualified field service person, to ensurethat the flow of combustion and ventilation air
is not obstructed.
During the annual service call, the burners
should be removed from the burner tray andcleaned. Replace the embers but do not block
the pilot.
5) Keep the area near the appliance clear andfree from combustible materials, gasoline andother flammable vapours and liquids.

WARNING: CHILDREN AND ADULTS
SHOULD BE ALERTED TO THE HAZARDSOF HIGH SURFACE TEMPERATURE ANDSHOULD STAY AWAY TO AVOID BURNS
OR CLOTHING IGNITION. YOUNG
CHILDREN SHOULD BE CAREFULLYSUPERVISED WHEN THEY ARE IN THE
SAME ROOM AS THE APPLIANCE.
CAUTION: ANY SAFETY SCREEN OR
GUARD REMOVED FOR SERVICING AN
APPLIANCE MUST BE REPLACED PRIOR
TO OPERATING THE APPLIANCE.
CLOTHING OR OTHER FLAMMABLE MATERIAL SHOULD NOT BE PLACED ON OR
NEAR THE APPLIANCE.
6) Each time the appliance is lit, it may cause
condensation and fog the glass. This condensation and fog is normal and will disappear ina few minutes as the glass heats up.
Never operate the appliance without theglass properly secured in place or with thedoor open.
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.
8) Periodically check the pilot flames. Correct
flame pattern has three strong blue flames: 1
flowing around the thermopile and 1 around thethermocouple, and 1 flowing across the rearof the burner (it does not have to be touching
the burner)

Blower Thermodisc:
When this thermally activated switch turns ON
it will create a small "clicking" sound. This is theswitch contacts closing and is normal.
Pilot Flame:
While the pilot flame is on it can make a veryslight "whisper" sound.
Gas Control Valve:
As the gas control valve turns ON and OFF, adull clicking sound may be audible, this is normal
operation of a gas regulator or valve.
Unit Body/Firebox:
Different types and thicknesses of steel will
expand and contract at different rates resulting
in some "cracking" and "ticking" sounds will beheard throughout the cycling process.
