Safety Precautions
1. Please read these installation instructions com-
pletely before beginning installation procedures.
Failure to follow them could cause a fireplace
malfunction resulting in serious injury and/or
property damage.
2. Always check your local building codes prior to
installation. This installation must comply with all
local, regional, state and national codes and reg-
ulations.
3. Installation and repair should be done by a quali-
fied service person. This appliance should also
be inspected annually by a qualified service per-
son. More frequent inspections/cleaning may be
required due to excessive lint from carpeting,
bedding material, etc. It is imperative that the
control compartment, burners and circulating air
passage ways of the appliance be kept clean.
4. The GC300 and GC400 fireplaces are vented
decorative gas appliances. Do not burn wood or
other material in this appliance.
5. NEVER leave children unattended when there is
a fire burning in the fireplace.
6. This fireplace may be vented horizontally through
an outside wall or vertically above the roof line
and must not be connected to a chimney flue ser-
vicing a solid fuel burning appliance.
7. NEVER use gasoline, gasoline-type lantern fuel,
kerosene, charcoal lighter fluid, or similar liquids
in this fireplace. Keep any flammable liquids a
safe distance from the fireplace.
8. While servicing this fireplace, always shut off all
electricity and gas to the fireplace. This will pre-
vent possible electrical shock or burns. Also,
make sure the unit is completely cooled before
servicing.
9. During any pressure testing of the gas supply
piping system that exceeds test pressures of 1/2
psig, this appliance and its individual shut-off
valve must be disconnected from the piping sys-
tem. If test pressures equal to or less than 1/2
psig are used in pressure testing the gas supply
piping system, this appliance must be isolated
from the piping system by closing its individual
manual shut-off valve during testing.
10. 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
any part of the control system and any gas con-
trol which has been under water.
11. Be sure to provide adequate clearances around
the air openings into the combustion chamber
and adequate accessibility clearances for servic-
ing and proper operation.
