8) Each time the appliance is lit, it may cause

condensation and fog the glass. This con-
densation and fog is normal and will disap-
pear in a few minutes as the glass heats up.

Never operate the appliance without
the glass properly secured in place or
with the door open.

9) Periodically check the pilot flames. Correct

flame pattern has three strong blue flames:
1 flowing around the thermopile and 1
around the thermocouple, and 1 flowing

6) The appliance and venting system must be

inspected before use, and at least annual-
ly, by a qualified field service person, to
ensure that the flow of combustion and
ventilation air is not obstructed.

During the annual service call, the burners

should be removed from the burner tray
and cleaned. Replace the embers but do not
block the pilot.

7) Keep the area near the appliance clear and

free from combustible materials, gasoline,
and other flammable vapours and liquids.

MAINTENANCE

INSTRUCTIONS

1) Always turn off the valve before cleaning.

For relighting, refer to lighting instructions.
Keep the burner and control compartment
clean by brushing and vacuuming at least
once a year. When cleaning the logs, use a
soft clean paint brush as the logs are fragile
and easily damaged.

2) Clean glass (never when unit is hot), appli-

ance, and door with a damp cloth. Never
use an abrasive cleaner.

3) The heater is finished in a porcelain finish or

with a heat resistant paint and should only
be refinished with heat resistant paint (not
with wall paint). Waterford uses Stove-
Bright Paint - Metallic Black #6309.

Never use an abrasive cleaner on the por-
celain finish as it may scratch the surface.

4) Make a periodic check of burner for proper

position and condition. Visually check the
flame of the burner periodically, making sure
the flames are steady; not lifting or floating.
If there is a problem, call a qualified service
person.

5) Caution: Label all wires prior to disconnec-

tion when servicing controls. Wiring errors
can cause improper and dangerous opera-
tion.

AUTOMATIC

CONVECTION FAN

OPERATION

The fan operates automatically - turn the knob
at the top right rear corner to adjust to the
desired speed. The fan will turn on as the stove
comes up to operating temperature. After the
unit has been turned off and the unit cooled to
below a useful heat output range the fan will
shut off automatically.

ADJUSTING FLAME

HEIGHT

Your heater has an adjustable flame to tailor the
look and heat output to your specific needs. It
is adjusted by turning the flame adjustment dial
on the gas control valve.

Turn clockwise to adjust the flame higher,
counterclockwise for a lower flame.

NORMAL OPERATING

SOUNDS OF

GAS APPLIANCES

It is possible that you will hear some sounds
from your gas appliance. This is perfectly nor-
mal due to the fact that there are various gauges
and types of steel used within your appliance.
Listed below are some examples. All are nor-
mal operating sounds
and should not be
considered as defects in your appliance.

Blower:
Waterford gas appliances use high tech blow-
ers to push heated air farther into the room. It is
not unusual for the fan to make a "whirring"
sound when ON. This sound will increase or
decrease in volume depending on the speed
setting of your fan speed control.

Burner Tray:
The burner tray is positioned directly under the
burner tube(s) and logs and is made of a
different gauge material from the rest of the
firebox and body. Therefore, the varying thick-
nesses of steel will expand and contract at
slightly different rates which can cause "tick-
ing" and "cracking" sounds. You should also
be aware that as there are temperature chang-
es within the unit these sounds will likely re-
occur. Again, this is normal for steel fireboxes.

Blower Thermodisc:
When this thermally activated switch turns ON
it will create a small "clicking" sound. This is the
switch contacts closing and is normal.

Pilot Flame:
While the pilot flame is on it can make a very
slight "whisper" sound.

Gas Control Valve:
As the gas control valve turns ON and OFF, a
dull clicking sound may be audible, this is
normal operation of a gas regulator or valve.

Unit Body/Firebox:
Different types and thicknesses of steel will
expand and contract at different rates result-
ing in some "cracking" and "ticking" sounds will
be heard throughout the cycling process.

MAINTENANCE

CAUTION: ANY SAFETY SCREEN
OR GUARD REMOVED FOR SERV-
ICING AN APPLIANCE MUST BE
REPLACED PRIOR TO OPERAT-
ING THE APPLIANCE.

CLOTHING OR OTHER FLAMMA-
BLE MATERIAL SHOULD NOT BE
PLACED ON OR NEAR THE AP-
PLIANCE.

WARNING: CHILDREN AND
ADULTS SHOULD BE ALERTED
TO THE HAZARDS OF HIGH SUR-
FACE TEMPERATURE AND
SHOULD STAY AWAY TO AVOID
BURNS OR CLOTHING IGNITION.
YOUNG CHILDREN SHOULD BE
CAREFULLY SUPERVISED WHEN
THEY ARE IN THE SAME ROOM
AS THE APPLIANCE.

DO NOT USE THIS APPLIANCE IF
ANY PART HAS BEEN UNDER WA-
TER. IMMEDIATELY CALL A
QUALIFIED SERVICE TECHNI-
CIAN TO INSPECT THE APPLI-
ANCE AND TO REPLACE ANY
PART OF CONTROL SYSTEM
AND ANY GAS CONTROL WHICH
HAS BEEN UNDER WATER.
