WARNING
!
• If you do not follow these instructions exactly, a fi re or explosion may result causing property damage, personal
injury or loss of life.
• Always light the pilot whether for the fi rst time or if the gas supply has ran out with the glass door opened or
removed.
• Tampering with the spill switch can result in carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning and possible death (GS60-1N
only).
MODEL GS60-1 ONLY: SPILL SWITCH
This is a thermally activated switch, attached to the back of the chimney adaptor, which senses the change in
temperature and shuts down the gas valve in the event of a blocked or disconnected vent. It acts as a safety
shut-off to prevent a build up of carbon monoxide or an explosion of unburned gases during start up. If the fl ue is
blocked or has no "draw", the spill switch will automatically shut off the supply of gas within about 5-10 minutes.
MODEL GS60-1 ONLY: VENTING ACTION CHECK
A CHECK FOR CORRECT VENTING ACTION MUST BE MADE BEFORE THE INSTALLED APPLIANCE IS LEFT
WITH THE CUSTOMER. Test in the following manner:
A.
Close all doors and windows in the room / start exhaust fans in the home / turn appliance blower off (if
equipped).
B.
Set controls to "high" and light the unit.
C.
Wait 5 minutes. Light a match and extend it 1" (51mm) into the hole located above the spill switch
bracket on the adaptor.
D.
Venting action is satisfactory if the fl ame stays lit. Venting action is unsatisfactory if the fl ame extinguishes.
E.
If venting action is unsatisfactory, turn the unit off, wait 10 minutes and try again. If the match does not
stay lit, turn the unit off and check for vent blockage or restriction. If necessary, consult with a qualifi ed
inspector.

operating instructions

The on-off switch is located on the back of the unit at the top left corner on models GDS60-1 and GS60-1.
NOTE: The upper fi rebox baffl e of your new cast appliance has intentionally been left unpainted. Its
shiny appearance will quickly transform to a dull black fi nish during the curing process.
When lit for the fi rst time, the appliance will emit a slight odour for a few hours. This is a normal temporary
condition caused by the "burn-in" of internal paints and lubricants used in the manufacturing process and will not
occur again. Simply open a window to suffi ciently ventilate the room. After extended periods of non-operation
such as following a vacation or a warm weather season, the appliance 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 suffi ciently ventilate the
room.
