INSPECTING bURNERS
Continued
BURNER FLAME PATTERN
Burner flames will be steady; not lifting or floating.
Flame patterns will be different from unit to unit
and will vary depending on installation type and
weather conditions.
If the vent configuration is installed incorrectly,
the flames will lift or "ghost". This can be danger-
ous. Inspect the flames after installation to ensure
proper installation and performance.
Figure 50 shows a typical flame pattern.
If burner flame pattern differs from that de-
scribed:
• turn fireplace off (see To Turn Off Gas to Ap-
pliance, page 28)
• see Troubleshooting, page 33

CLEANING AND
MAINTENANCE
WARNING: Turn off fireplace
and let cool before cleaning.
CAUTION: You must keep
control areas, burners and
circulating air passageways of
fireplace clean. Inspect these
areas of fireplace before each
use. Have fireplace inspected
yearly by a qualified service
person. Fireplace may need
more frequent cleaning due to
excessive lint from carpeting,
bedding material, pet hair, etc.
GLASS DOOR
WARNING: Handle glass
door panel with care. Do not
strike, slam or otherwise abuse
glass. Do not operate fireplace
with the glass door unlatched,
removed, cracked or broken.
WARNING: Do not use
abrasive cleaners as this may
damage glass. Use a nonabra-
sive household glass cleaner to
clean glass. Do not clean glass
when hot.
Glass must be cleaned periodically. During start-
up it is normal for condensation to form on the
inside of the glass causing lint, dust and other
airborne particles to cling to the glass surface.
During initial start-up a slight film may form on
the glass due to paint curing. The glass should be
cleaned several times with a non-ammonia, non-
abrasive household cleaner and warm water after
the first two weeks of operation. Thereafter, clean
the glass two or three times during each heating
season, depending on the usage and circumstances
present. Refer to Removing/Replacing Glass Door,
page 25 of this manual when removing glass door
for cleaning.
WARNING: Only parts sup-
plied by the manufacturer should
be used when replacing broken
or damaged glass door panel
(see Replacement Parts, page
37). This glass door panel is
a complete unit. No substitute
materials may be used.
CAUTION: Wear gloves and
safety glasses while handling
or removing broken glass. Do
not remove if glass is hot. Keep
children and pets away from
glass.
If glass has been broken, carefully remove glass
door (see Removing/Replacing Glass Door, page
25). Vacuum all glass pieces with a shop vac.
