4. Logs
a. Cleaning the Logs
Your gas logs require little care. Keep the burner assembly,
logs and burner area surrounding the logs clean by
vacuuming or brushing with a dry paint brush at least twice
a year or as necessary.
CAUTION:
The logs can get very hot. Handle only when they are cool.
After burning, the logs become fragile, so take care in han-
dling.
Note:
• Always turn off the gas to the pilot before cleaning. For
relighting, refer to lighting instructions in this manual.
• Always keep the appliance clear and free from
combustible materials, gasoline, and other flammable
vapors and liquids.
• Never obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation
air. Keep the front of the appliance clear of all obstacles
and materials.
• Leave clearance of at least 36” from the front of the
appliance.
• The air shutter should not be blocked.
b. Removing the Logs
Remove the logs in reverse order of placement (see “Log
Placement”).
