Installation and repair should be done by a

qualified person. The appliance should be

inspected before use and at least annually by

a professional service person. More frequent

cleaning may be required due to excessive lint

from carpeting, pet hair, etc. It is imperative

that the control compartments, burners and

circulating air passageways of the appliance

be kept clean.

WARNING: Children and

adults should be alerted to the

hazards of high surface tempera-

tures and to stay away to avoid

burns or clothing ignition. Young

children should be carefully

supervised when they are in the

same room as the appliance.

For lighting and operating this vent-free

firebox, please refer to the vent-free gas logs

manufacturer’s instruction manual.

OPERATiNG GUiDELiNES AND MAiNTENANCE

iNSTRUCTiONS

When lit for the first time, a vent-free log

heater will emit a slight odor for about an hour

or two. This is a normal occurrence which is

due to the “curing” of the logs and the “burn-in”

of internal paints and lubricants used in the

manufacturing process.
Keep control compartments, logs, burners

and areas surrounding the logs clean by

vacuuming or brushing at least twice a year.

Temporary removal of the log set may ease

the cleaning of the burner and pilot assembly.

In cleaning, take care not to alter the settings

on the pilot assembly. See the operating

instructions supplied with your vent-free log

heater for additional cleaning instructions.

WARNING: Logs can be very

hot! Allow logs to cool before

handling.

IMPORTANT: Turn off the gas supply at the

external shutoff valve before servicing appli-

ance. Any safety screen or guard removed for

servicing must be replaced prior to operating

the appliance.

CAUTION: Do not clean hood

with abrasive cleanser. Use only

regular household cleaners and

a smooth cloth.
