The following should only be performed by a qualified

service technician.

Caution: Label all wires prior to disconnection when

servicing controls. Wiring errors can cause improper

and dangerous operation. Verify proper operation after

servicing.

1. Annual inspection should be made and the following

checks performed:

o

When unit is cool, remove glass and inspect burner for

dirt, soot, and lint accumulations, and remove if neces-

sary. If excessive soot accumulation is present on burner,

have a qualified service technician adjust the burner for

proper combustion.

o

Clean inside of glass with gas fireplace glass cleaner.

NEVER attempt to remove or clean the glass when the

unit is hot.

o

Check the hot air outlet vents for lint or other accumula-

tions. Never block or restrict vent openings, obstruct flow

of ventilation air, or use vents other than those approved

for use with the Ravenna gas insert.

o

Check that the chimney and its outlet are open and free

of soot, blockage, or debris.

o

Check gaskets once a year. Gaskets must be tight. Replace

if necessary.

o

Inspect the pilot system for proper flame. NEVER ADJUST

THE PILOT until after the gas pressure has been checked

and the supply lines have been completely bled (this may

take an hour or more when bleeding through the pilot).

All pilots are checked and burned at the factory prior to

shipment. The pilot adjustment screw is located below the

ON/OFF/PILOT control knob. Remove the pilot adjusting

cover with a flat-bladed screwdriver to access the pilot

adjusting screw. Adjust the pilot screw to properly size the

flames. The flames should directly contact the thermopile

and extend across the main burner ports. Be careful not

to back the screw out of its threads. Replace the cover

and check for gas leaks using a gas leak test solution.

o

Check that the area around the insert is kept clear and is

free of combustible materials, gasoline, and other flam-

mable vapors and liquids.

o

Check the millivolt system as per the table on this page.

. The viewing glass should be cleaned periodically (see

Glass Maintenance).

Cleaning: When cool, the glass may be cleaned with a clean,

soft cloth and Windex. For cleaning white condensation from

the interior glass, use KEL KEM gas fireplace glass cleaner

available from your insert dealer. Use of caustic or abrasive

cleaners may damage the glass. DO NOT operate the insert

with broken glass. DO NOT clean door or glass when hot. DO

NOT abuse the glass door by striking or slamming it shut.

DO NOT use substitute materials if replacing the glass. DO

NOT spray commercial glass cleaner with ammonia on the

door and glass gasket as it may dissolve the gasket glue.

Glass Replacement: The glass in the insert door cannot be

replaced separately. Should the glass be damaged, the entire

glass, gasket, and metal frame assembly must be replaced

as a unit. This replacement glass assembly is available from

your Lennox Hearth Products dealer. The glass is neo-ceramic

and alternative types must not be used.

WARNING: Do not operate appliance with the glass panel

removed, cracked, or broken. Do not remove glass door

while the insert is hot. Replacement of the glass door

should be done by a qualified service technician.
