any maintenance or cleaning to reduce the risk of fire,
electric shock or damage to persons.

Allow at least five (5) minutes for the light
bulbs to cool before touching them to avoid accidental
burning of the skin.
The light bulbs need to be replaced when you notice a dark
section of the flame or when the clarity and detail of the log
ember bed exterior reduces. There are two (2) bulbs under
the ember bed, which generate the flames and embers.

Helpful Hints
It is a good idea to replace all light bulbs at one time if they
are close to the end of their rated life. Group replacement
will reduce the number of times you need to open the unit
to replace light bulbs.
Cleaning
WARNINg
: Always disconnect from the power supply
before cleaning the fireplace.
For general cleaning use a soft clean duster – never use
abrasive cleaners. The glass viewing screen should be
cleaned carefully with a soft cloth. DO NOT use glass
cleaners.
To remove any accumulation of dust or fluff, the soft brush
attachment of a vacuum cleaner should occasionally be
used to clean the outlet grill of the fan heater.
