Operation
Lighting Instructions
See pages 14 and 15.
Burner Adjustment
The C42-DV is equipped with an adjustable burner, allowing you to
raise or lower the flames. To adjust the flames, locate the black knob
marked 'Hi-Lo', in the centre of the gas control valve (See Figure
26). The front burners are not adjustable.
n
To raise the flame height, turn the black knob (located behind
the lower trim) counterclockwise.
n
To lower the flame height, turn clockwise.

Cleaning
When the fireplace is first activated, there may be some smoking
and a visible film may be left on the glass. This is a normal
condition, and is the result of burning of protective coatings on
new metal.
n Glass must be cleaned periodically to remove any film (which
is a normal biproduct of combustion) which may be visible.
Film can easily be removed by removing the door, as shown
on page 12-13. Handle the door carefully, and clean it with
non-abrasive glass cleaners. One of the most effective
products is Kel Kem.
n Silicone seals on inner door during initial firing will "off gas",
leaving a visual deposit of a white substance on combustion
chamber walls. This can easily be removed using normal
household products.
n
Use a vacuum cleaner or whisk broom to keep the control
compartment, burner, and firebox free from dust and lint.
n
Logs may be cleaned periodically with a vacuum to remove
soot or other contaminates.
Note: C42-DV-I models (electronic ignition) do not feature
hi/lo adjustment.
