Maintaining Your Fireplace's Appearance

Fingerprints or other marks left on the optional plated surface may become etched in place if they are not
wiped clean prior to turning the fireplace on. Clean the plated surface with denatured alcohol and a soft
cloth (with the fireplace cool). Other cleaners may leave a film that may become etched into the surface.

Accent Light Replacement

An accent light is included in your fireplace to
provide additional lighting. These bulbs will burn
out over time. To replace, follow the directions
below:

Shut off gas to the fireplace and let it cool for 15 minutes.

Remove the glass (see page 19) and logs (see page 21).

Replace the halogen bulb with the following bulb:
(NOTE: Take care to not touch the bulb with your fingers –
use foam packing or paper towel to hold the bulb):

35 Watt 120 Volt T4 Halogen Bulb (G6.35 Base)

Yearly Service Procedure

Failure to inspect and maintain the fireplace may lead to improper combustion and a potentially dangerous
situation. We recommend the following procedures be done by a qualified technician.

1. Turn the pilot flame to continuous. It should touch approximately 3/8" of the top of the flame sensor. If it does

not, contact your dealer for service.

2. Shut off gas to the fireplace and let it cool for 15 minutes. Remove the glass (see page 19).

3. Remove the log set (NOTE: the logs are very fragile - see page 21). If severely deteriorated, replace. Check

the logs for sooting. A small amount of soot along the bottom of the logs is normal. If excessive sooting is
found, the fireplace will require adjustment. Contact your dealer.

4. Inspect the burner and remove any debris.

Make sure the burner is not warped, cracked, or damaged.

Check the firebox and area around the pilot to make sure there is no warping or damage.

If any problem is found, discontinue use and contact your dealer for service.

5. Replace the log set. Clean and replace the glass. If the glass is damaged, replace. Make sure the gasket along

the perimeter of the glass contacts the face of the firebox and forms an air-tight seal. If it does not, re-align or
replace the gasket to insure an air-tight seal.

6. Inspect the area behind the access door. Clean if necessary. Check the gas control valve and the gas lines. If

damage is found, discontinue use and contact your dealer for service. Clean the air channels, ducts, and blower
(if applicable).

7. Start the main burner. After 15 minutes the flames should be

orange/yellow and not touch the top of the firebox. If the pilot or
main burners do not burn correctly, contact your dealer for
service. Monitor blower operation.

8. Remove any debris or vegetation near the vent termination.

Contact your dealer if any sooting or deterioration is found near
the vent termination.
