FLAME CHARACTERISTICS

It's important to periodically perform a visual check of the pilot and
burner fl ames. Compare them to the illustrations provided. If any fl ames
appear abnormal call a service person.
6.4

RESTRICTING VERTICAL VENTS

Some vent confi gurations may display a very active
fl ame. If this appearance is not desirable, the vent exit
may be restricted using a restrictor plate. Bend the fl ap
up as shown to reduce the velocity of the exhaust gases,
slowing down the fl ame pattern and creating a more
traditional appearance.

7.0 MAINTENANCE

TURN OFF THE GAS AND ELECTRICAL POWER BEFORE SERVICING THE APPLIANCE.
APPLIANCE MAY BE HOT, DO NOT SERVICE UNTIL APPLIANCE HAS COOLED.
CAUTION: Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls. Wiring errors can cause improper
and dangerous operation. Verify proper operation after servicing. This appliance and its venting system
should be inspected before use and at least annually by a qualifi ed service person. The appliance area must
be kept clear and free of combustible materials, gasoline or other fl ammable vapors and liquids. The fl ow of
combustion and ventilation air must not be obstructed.
A. In order to properly clean the burner and pilot assembly, remove the logs, rocks and/or glass to
expose both assemblies.
B. Keep the control compartment, media, burner, air shutter opening and the area surrounding the logs
clean by vacuuming or brushing, at least once a year.
C. 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.
D. Check to see that the pilot fl ame is large enough to engulf the fl ame sensor and/or thermocouple /
thermopile as well as reaches the burner.
E. Replace the cleaned logs, rocks or glass. Failure to properly position the media may cause carboning
which can be distributed in the surrounding living area.
F. Check to see that the main burner ignites completely on all openings when turned on. A 5 to 10
second total light-up period is satisfactory. If ignition takes longer, consult your local authorized dealer /
distributor.
G. Check that the gasketing on the sides, top and bottom of the door is not broken or missing. Replace if
necessary.
H. If for any reason the vent air intake system is disassembled, re-install and re-seal per the instructions
provided for the initial installation.
I. Cleaning the safety barrier may be necessary due to excessive lint / dust from carpeting, pets, etc.
simply vacuum using the brush attachment.
J. Ensure the pressure relief system performs effectively. Check that the gasket is not worn or damaged.
Replace if necessary.
