CLEANING AND
MAINTENANCE
WARNING: Turn off the ap-
pliance and allow to cool before
cleaning.
CAUTION: You must keep
control areas, burners and cir-
culating air passageways of fire-
place clean. Inspect these areas
of fireplace before each use. Have
fireplace and chimney (if appli-
cable) inspected yearly by a quali-
fied service person. Fireplace may
need more frequent cleaning due
to excessive lint from carpeting,
bedding material, etc.
Only limited cleaning will be required under nor-
mal use of this appliance. Dust the front grate and
top of receiver/valve. Do not use cleaning fluids to
clean logs or any other part of the appliance.
If, after a period of use, the flames start to exhibit
unusual shapes and behavior or the burner fails to
ignite smoothly, then the burner holes may require
some cleaning. If this happens, we recommend
that you contact your nearest authorized service
technician to get the appliance serviced.
• Keep area around log set clean and clear of
debris.
• Periodically inspect the air mixer and burner
tube for foreign matter blocking the air inlet
and flame holes.
• Once every year a qualified agency or certified
chimney sweep should examine and clean the
venting system of the fireplace.
