The fireplace and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa). The fireplace 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 or less than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).

A 1/8 inch NPT plug, accessible for test gauge connection, must be installed immediately upstream of the gas supply connection to the stove.

This fireplace must be connected to any accepted lined chimney system listed to ULC-S635M (in Canada) or UL-

1777 (in USA). The venting connection must be in compliance with the vent manufacturers installation instructions.

The draft hood must be installed so it is in the same atmospheric pressure zone as the combustion air inlet to the fireplace.

Provide adequate ventilation and combustion air. Provide adequate accessibility clearance for servicing and operating the fireplace. Never obstruct the front opening of the fireplace.

This insert must be recessed into a vented noncombustible woodburning fireplace (prefabricated or masonry) only.

The minimum fireplace size in which the heater is to be installed is:

HEIGHT 17½ inches WIDTH 25½ inches DEPTH 16½ inches

The minimum distance, from the bottom of a combustible mantle projecting 6" maximum from the wall to the top of the unit, is 8".

The fireplace, when installed, must be electrically connected and grounded in accordance with local codes. In the absence of local codes, use the current CSA C22.1

CANADIAN ELECTRICAL CODE in Canada or the ANSI/

NFPA 70 NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE in the United

States. The blower power cord must be connected into a properly grounded receptacle. The grounding prong must not be removed from the cord plug.

GENERAL INFORMATION

FOR YOUR SATISFACTION, THIS FIREPLACE HAS BEEN

TEST-FIRED TO ASSURE ITS OPERATION AND QUAL-

ITY! Maximum input is 24,000 BTU/hr for natural gas and

22,000 BTU/hr for propane. When the fireplace is installed at elevations above 4,500ft, and in the absense of specific recommendations from the local authority having jurisdiction, the certified high altitude input rating shall be reduced at the rate of 4% for each additional 1,000ft. Maximum output for natural gas is 15,900 BTU/hr and 16,000 BTU/hr for propane.

Minimum inlet gas supply pressure is 4.5 inches water column for natural gas and 11 inches water column for propane. This fireplace is certified for bedroom and bedsitting room installation. Maximum inlet gas pressure is 7 inches water column for natural gas and 13 inches water column for propane. Manifold pressure under flow conditions is 3.5 inches water column for natural gas and

10 inches water column for propane.

No external electricity (110 volts or 24 volts) is required for the gas system operation.

Expansion / contraction noises during heating up and cooling down cycles are normal and to be expected. Change in flame appearance from "HI" to "LO" is more evident in natural gas than in propane.

CARE OF GLASS AND PLATED

Do not use abrasive cleaners to clean plated parts. Buff lightly with a clean dry cloth. The glass is 3/16" ceramic glass available from your Continental / Wolf Steel Ltd. dealer.

Do not substitute materials . Clean the glass after the first

W385-0199

The sheet-metal parts of the fireplace, in which the gas fireplace insert is to be installed, must not be cut.

If the wood-burning factory-built fireplace has no gas access hole(s) provided, an access hole of 1½ inch or less may be drilled through the lower sides or bottom of the fireplace in a proper workman like manner. This access hole must be plugged with non-combustible insulation after the gas supply line has been installed.

Ensure that existing chimney cleanouts fit properly.

The refractory, glass doors, screen rails, screen mesh and log grates may be removed from the fireplace before installing the gas fireplace insert.

Smoke shelves, shields and baffles may be removed if attached by mechanical fasteners.

The ventilation openings in the fireplace may be obstructed by the backer plates, aluminium trim etc. but these parts are not to be applied so as to have an airtight seal.

Line the chimney with a 3" or 4" diameter approved liner.

With a 4" liner, an increaser must be connected between the dilution draft hood and the liner. Chimney installation must conform to both national and local code requirements.

The liner must be continuous from the fireplace to the chimney cap.

Remove the securing screw from the front of the dilution plate. Push the dilution draft hood out of the securing clips and attach the liner using 3 screws equally spaced. Pack insulation around the liner at the damper area to prevent air flow from entering the chimney. Move the insert into the centre of the woodburning fireplace making sure that the dilution draft hood inserts back into its securing clips. Level using the four leveling screws located front and back on either side of the fireplace base. Leveling the insert will eliminate rocking or excessive noise when the fan is in operation. Replace the securing screw to the front of the dilution plate.

FIGURE 3

Install rigid black pipe, a flex connector, if local codes per-

mit, or 1/2" type L, copper tubing with a 3/8" to 1/2" adapter and a shut off valve to the fireplace. Seal and tighten securely. The adapter will be required between the gas valve and the copper tubing or flex connector. Do not kink flexible connector! Check for gas leaks by brushing on a soap and water solution. Do not use open flame!

FINISHING

FIBRE FIREBRICK PANELS

To give your insert that authentic masonry fireplace look, optional fibre firebrick panels are available at your Continental / Wolf Steel Ltd. dealer. Complete installation and maintenance instructions are included with the kit.

LOG PLACEMENT

PHAZER

TM

logs and charcoal embers, exclusive to Continental Fireplaces, provide a unique and realistic glowing effect that is different in every installation. Take the time to carefully position the charcoal embers for a maximum glowing effect.

1. Place the front log onto the main burner, pushing it as close as possible to the burner ports without blocking/covering them. The left and right spacing between the log ends and the burner ports should be equal.

YOU MAY FIND IT EASIER TO PLACE SOME CHARCOAL

EMBERS BENEATH THE FRONT LOG NOW.

CHARCOAL EMBERS

Randomly place the embers beneath the front log, covering all of the burner area beneath the hollowed out section of the log. Place the remaining embers along the front.

Keep ember dust away from burner ports to avoid plugging them.

Fine dust found in bottom of bag not to be used.

PHAZER

TM logs and charcoal embers glow when exposed to direct flame. Use only certified PHAZER TM logs and charcoal embers available from your Continental / Wolf Steel

Ltd. dealer.

2. Place the back log onto the step located at the back of the combustion chamber. The notch situated at the lower right of the back log should be centered evenly above the pilot assembly.

3. While supporting the back log, to prevent it from falling forward, set the three smaller logs into the pockets and grooves of the front and back logs, respectively.

Log colours may vary. During the initial use of the fireplace, the colours will become more uniform as colour pigments burn in during the heat activated curing process.

POSITIONING THE LOGS IMPROP-

ERLY WILL CAUSE FLAME IMPINGE-

MENT AND CARBONING.

OPERATION / MAINTENANCE

SPILL SWITCH

This is a thermally activated switch, attached to the back of the unit and extending up into the dilution draft hood, which senses the change in temperature and shuts down the gas valve in the event of a severe downdraft of air or a blocked or disconnected vent.

It acts as a safety shut-off to prevent a build up of carbon monoxide or an explosion of unburnt gases during start up. If the flue is blocked or has no "draw", the spill switch will automatically shut off the supply of gas within about 5-

10 minutes.

TAMPERING WITH THE SWITCH CAN RESULT IN CAR-

BON MONOXIDE (CO) POISONING AND POSSIBLE

DEATH.

VENTING ACTION CHECK

A CHECK FOR CORRECT VENTING ACTION MUST BE

MADE BEFORE THE INSTALLED INSERT IS LEFT WITH

THE CUSTOMER.

Test after installing the unit into a vented non-combustible fireplace in the following manner:

1. Close all doors and windows in the room; start exhaust fans in the home; turn fireplace blower off.

2. Set controls to "high" and light the unit.

3. Wait 5 minutes. Light a match and hold it to the spill tube opening.

4. Venting action is satisfactory if smoke is drawn into the spill tube. Venting action is unsatisfactory if the flame and smoke are not drawn into the tube.

5. If venting action is unsatisfactory, turn the unit off, wait 10 minutes and try again. If the smoke or flame is still not drawn into the spill tube, turn the unit off and check for vent blockage or restriction. If necessary, consult with a qualified air quality specialist.

FIGURE 10

When lit for the first time, the fireplace will emit a slight odour for a few hours. This is a normal temporary condition caused by the curing of the logs and the "burn-in" of internal paints and lubricants used in the manufacturing process and will not occur again. Simply open a window to sufficiently ventilate the room.

After extended periods of non-operation such as following a vacation or a warm weather season, the fireplace may emit a slight odour for a few hours. This is caused by dust particles in the heat exchanger burning off. Open a window to sufficiently ventilate the room.

W415-0120 / E / 01.11.05

FOR YOUR SAFETY READ BEFORE LIGHTING:

A This fireplace has a pilot which must be lit by hand while following these instructions exactly.

B Before lighting, smell all around the fireplace area for gas and next to the floor because some gas is heavier than air and will settle on the floor.

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, do not try to repair it. Call a qualified service technician. Force or attempted repair may result in a fire or explosion.

D Do not use this fireplace if any part has been under water. Immediately call a qualified service technician to inspect the unit and replace any part of the control system and any gas control touched by water.

WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS:

•

Do not try to light any appliance.

• Do not touch any electrical switch; do not use any phone in your building.

• Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbour's phone. Follow the gas supplier's instructions.

• If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire department.

LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS

MAINTENANCE

TURN OFF THE GAS AND ELECTRICAL POWER

BEFORE SERVICING THE FIREPLACE.

CAUTION: Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls. Wiring errors can cause improper and dangerous operation. Verify proper operation after servicing.

This insert and its venting system should be inspected before use and at least annually by a qualified service person. The fireplace area must be kept clear and free of combustible materials, gasoline or other flammable vapours and liquids. The flow of combustion and ventilation air must not be obstructed.

1. In order to properly clean the burner and pilot assembly, remove the logs to expose both assemblies.

2. Keep the control compartment, logs, burner, air shutter opening and the area surrounding the logs clean by vacuuming or brushing, at least once a year.

3. Check to see that all burner ports are burning. Clean out any of the ports which may not be burning or are not burning properly.

4. Check to see that the pilot flame is large enough to engulf the thermopile on one leg and reaches toward the burner on the other leg.

5. Replace the cleaned logs.

6. Check to see that the main burner ignites completely on all openings when the gas knob for the burner is turned on. A 5 to 10 second total light-up period is satisfactory. If ignition takes longer, consult your Continental dealer / distributor.

7. Check that the door gasketing is not broken or missing.

Replace if necessary.

W415-0120 / E / 01.11.05

BLOWER SYSTEM

The Continental gas fireplace insert comes standard with a blower, a heat sensor, variable on/off speed control and a power cord. Because the blower is thermally activated, when turned on, it will automatically start approximately 15 minutes after lighting the fireplace and will run for approximately 30 minutes after the fireplace has been turned off.

Use of the fan increases the output of heat. Air, drawn in through the lower louvre access door, is driven up the back of the firebox, and exhausted as hot air between the upper louvres.

BLOWER REPLACEMENT INSTRUCTIONS

• Turn off the gas and electric power to the unit.

• Remove the upper glass bracket. Loosen the lower glass bracket and remove the glass.

• Remove the logs.

• Remove the burner assembly.

• Remove the eight screws holding the access door in place on the control assembly (located at the back of the burner support).

• Remove the four screws holding the blower duct and slide it forward from beneath the burner support.

• Disconnect the electrical connectors at the blower.

• Remove the blower.

FIGURE 12

FIGURE 11

Drywall dust will penetrate into blower bearings causing irrepairable damage and must be prevented from coming into contact with the blower or its compartment.

Any damage resulting from this condition is not covered by the warranty policy.

ADJUSTMENTS

PILOT BURNER ADJUSTMENT

1.

Remove the pilot adjustment cap.

2.

Adjust the pilot screw to provide properly sized flame.

3.

FIGURE 12

VENTURI ADJUSTMENT

Natural gas models have air shutters set at 1/16 (.063") inch open. Propane gas models have air shutters set at 3/

16 (.188) inch open. Closing the air shutter will cause a more yellow flame, but can lead to carboning. Opening the air shutter will cause a more blue flame, but can cause flame lifting from the burner ports. The flame may not appear yellow immediately; allow 15 to 30 minutes for the final flame colour to be established.

AIR SHUTTER ADJUSTMENT MUST ONLY BE DONE BY A

QUALIFIED GAS INSTALLER!

No gas at the pilot burner

- check that the wire is connected to the push button ignitor.

- check if the push button ignitor needs tightening.

- replace pilot assembly if the wire insulation is broken or frayed.

- replace pilot assembly if the ceramic insulator is cracked or broken.

- replace the push button ignitor.

- spark gap should be 1/16" to 1/8" from the electrode tip and the pilot burner. Light the pilot with a match and adjust the electrode tip to the required spark gap and proper location.

- check that the manual valve is turned on.

- check the pilot orifice for blockage.

- replace the valve.

- call the gas distributor.
