Air shutter settings should be adjusted by a qualified installer at the time of installation. The air shutter is set at the factory for a minimum vertical vent run. It may need adjustment for longer vertical runs.

• 16 full turns of the shutter adjustment handle are required to move the air shutter from fully open to fully closed.

• When the shutter adjustment handle is all the way down, the air shutter is in the closed position.

NOTICE: If sooting occurs, provide more air by opening the air shutter.
