Service and repair should be done by a qualified service person. The appliance should be inspected
before use and at least annually by a professional service technician. More frequent cleaning may be
required due to excessive lint from carpeting, bedding material, etc. It is important that the access
door compartment, burner, and circulating air passageways be kept clean to provide for adequate
combustion and ventilation airflow. Do not substitute materials or use components other than factory
supplied.
4.2 RECOMMENDED SERVICE
1. The venting system should be annually inspected by a qualified agency.
2. Visually check the burner and pilot flames occasionally. Visually inspect height and color of
flames
3. Clean the glass as needed. See section 4.3 for instructions on glass cleaning.
4. Have the appliance inspected annually by a professional service technician.
5. Clean the appliance regularly.
Annual service: An annual service call should take between 1 – 2 hours. Start by disassembling the
unit; take off the door and remove all the embers, burner, and logs. Clean fan with a vacuum to
remove any dust. Vacuum the whole firebox and all the air passages. Clean the burner. After
everything is clean, check all the connections and the chassis ground and reassemble. Clean the
glass.
4.3 GLASS CLEANING
The inside of the glass may require periodic cleaning to remove deposits left from impurities in the
gas and combustion air. For best results, use a ceramic glass cleaner or polish. Use a cleaner
suitable for ceramic glass (e.g. cerama bryte stove cleaner). Avoid the use of ammonia based
®
cleaners such as Windex
. Do not clean while hot. Do not use abrasive cleaners. Make sure you
clean off any white film on the fireplace glass as soon as possible – otherwise the glass may
deteriorate.
4.4 BURNER & PILOT CLEANING
Periodic cleaning is necessary for proper operation. Remove the burner, and check that the burner
orifice is clean. Visually inspect the pilot. Brush or blow away any dust, lint, or foreign debris. If the
pilot orifice is plugged, disassembly may be required to remove any foreign material from the orifice
or tubing. When the appliance is back in service, check the pilot flame pattern. For re-lighting, refer
to the lighting instructions in Section 2.1.
