CARE AND OPERATION

ALL MODELS
“BREAK-IN” PERIOD
The finish on this appliance is a high temperature paint that
requires time and temperature to completely cure. The curing
process will take 2 or 3 burns (heat up and cool down peri-
ods). We recommend that you ventilate the house during the
initial burns. The paint emits non-toxic odors during this proc-
ess.
KEEP YOUR HOUSE WELL VENTILATED DURING THE CURING
PROCESS TO PREVENT ACTIVATION OF YOUR HOME SMOKE
DETECTOR.
Do not turn on a blower during the break-in process. Do not
place anything on the stove surface until the paint is com-
pletely cured. Do not attempt to repaint the stove until the
paint is completely cured. If the surface later becomes stained
or marred, it may be lightly sanded and touched up with spray
paint (See Small Area Paint Touch-Up, page 20). Paint is avail-
able at your local authorized Lennox Hearth Products dealer.
Never attempt to paint a hot stove.
COMBUSTION CHAMBER RELIEF DOOR
This appliance is equipped with a relief door in case of delayed
ignition blowback. If the relief door opens, remove back panel
and inspect for gasket damage. If necessary, replace with fac-
tory supplied gasket only. Confirm relief door is closed and
properly seated, then replace back panel.
CIRCULATION BLOWER OPERATION
The speed of the circulation blower is controlled using the
speed control rheostat (see following illustration) on the left
hand side of the control panel. The blower system is designed
with a variable speed control allowing an infinite range of
blower settings to meet the customer’s needs. With the rotary
switch turned fully CCW 4, the blower is off. Turning the
switch CW 3 will activate the blower at its maximum speed.
Further rotation of the switch in the CW direction will reduce
the speed of the blower. At approximately 270° of CW 3 rota-
tion, the switch provides a minimum setting for blower speed.
Thermostatic feature: With the control switch in any “ON” po-
sition, the circulation blower is designed to automatically begin
operation approximately 12 minutes after lighting the main
burner. The blower will turn off approximately 15 minutes
after the main burner is shut-off.
