FOR YOUR SAFETY
The U32-2 Gas Inserts have been tested and
approved to be vented into any masonry fire-
place or approved solid fuel burning factory
built fireplace that will allow the insert to phys-
ically fit into the firebox. Refer to page 6 for
minimum fireplace clearances.
6) Always connect this insert to a vent system
venting to the outside of the building enve-
lope. Never vent to another room or inside
a building. Make sure that the vent is
properly sized and is of adequate height to
provide the proper draft.
This appliance requires air for proper combus-
tion. Always provide adequate combustion
and ventilation air. Follow instructions and
information in CAN/CGA B149 (in Canada) or

2) Open the bottom louver assembly.
It is possible that you will hear some sounds
from your gas appliance. This is perfectly
normal due to the fact that there are various
gauges and types of steel used within your
appliance. Listed below are some examples.
All are normal operating sounds and
should not be considered as defects in your
appliance.

FIRST FIRE
Blower:
FPI gas appliances use high tech blowers to
push heated air farther into the room. It is not
unusual for the fan to make a "whirring" sound
when ON. This sound will increase or de-
crease in volume depending on the speed
setting of your fan speed control.
The first fire in your stove is part of the paint
curing process. To ensure that the paint is
properlycured, itisrecommendedthatyouburn
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 the paint, the burning off of any
oils remaining from manufacturing. Smoke de-

the unit on.
If the top louvers start to
discolour, check the door gasket seal
and replace if necessary.
Conduct an inspection of the venting system
semi-annually. Recommended areas to inspect
as follows:
DOOR GLASS
Your FPI insert is supplied with high tempera-
ture, 5 mm Neoceram ceramic glass that will
withstand the highest heat that your unit will
produce. If your glass requires cleaning, we
recommend using an approved glass cleaner
available at all authorized dealers. Do not use
abrasive materials. Do not clean the glass
when hot.
1) Check the Venting System for corrosion in
areas that are exposed to the elements.
These will appear as rust spots or streaks,
andinextremecases, holes. Thesecompo-
nents should be replaced immediately.
2) Remove the Termination Cap, and shine a
flashlight down the Vent. Remove any bird
nests, or other foreign material.
In the event that you break your glass by
impact, purchase your replacement from an
authorizedFPI dealeronly, andfollowourstep-
by-step instructions for replacement.
3) Check for evidences of excessive conden-
sation, such as water droplets forming in
the inner liner, and subsequently dripping
out the joints, Continuous condensation
can cause corrosion of caps, pipe, and
fittings. It may be caused by having exces-
sive lateral runs, too many elbows, and
exterior portions of the system being ex-
posed to cold weather.
Top View of pilot flame
Incorrect flame pattern will have small, proba-
bly yellow flames, not coming into proper con-
tact with the rear of the burner or thermopile.
Warning: Do not operate appliance
withglasspanelsremoved,cracked
orbroken.Replacementoftheglass
should be done by a licensed or
qualified service person.
4) Inspect joints, to verify that no pipe sections
or fittings have been disturbed, and conse-
quently loosened. Also check mechanical
supports such as Wall Straps, or plumbers'
tape for rigidity.
Caution: Wear gloves when removing
damaged or broken glass.
Flush Glass Replacement
Remove the flush door front (as per instruc-
tions on page 11). Remove the 4 glass clips
from each corner. Slide in the new replacement
glass. Push the 4 glass clips back onto the
frame.
LOG REPLACEMENT
The unit should never be used with broken logs.
Turn off the gas valve and allow the unit to cool
before opening door to carefully remove the
logs. The pilot light generates enough heat to
burn someone. If for any reason a log should
need replacement, you must use the proper
replacement log. The position of these logs
must be as shown in the diagram under Log
Installation.
Top View of pilot flame
If you have an incorrect flame pattern, contact
your FPI dealer for further instructions.
NOTE: Improper positioning of logs may create
carbon build-up and will alter the unit’s perform-
ance which is not covered under warranty.
GLASS GASKET
If the glass gasket requires replacement use
glass gasket (Part # 936-265) for the Bay Front
and a tadpole gasket for the Flush Front (Part
# 936-155).
GOLD-PLATED TRIM
The 24 carat gold plated finish on the trim
requires little maintenance, and need only be
cleaned with a damp cloth. DO NOT use abra-
sive materials or chemical cleaners, as they
may harm the finish and void the warranty.
