Maintenance And Service
Warning:
Failure to position the parts in accordance with this manual, or failure to use only parts
specifically approved with this appliance, may result in property damage or personal injury.
At least once a year, run through the following procedures to ensure the system is clean and working
properly. Check the burner to see if all the ports are clear and clean. Check the pilot to make sure it is not
blocked by anything. The pilot flame should be blue with little or no yellow on the tips.
The venting system must be periodically examined; it is recommended the examination is done by a
qualified person.

When the fireplace is cool
, remove the glass door as instructed above. Check the gasket material on
the back of the glass, making sure that it is attached and intact.
During a cold start up, condensation will form on the glass. This is a normal condition with all fireplaces.
However, this condensation can allow dust and lint to cling to the glass surface. Initial paint curing of the
appliance can leave a slight film on the glass. The glass will need cleaning after the fireplace has cooled
off from the first burn and about two weeks after first burn.
Use a mild glass cleaner and a soft
cloth.
Abrasive cleaners will damage the glass and painted surfaces.
Depending on the amount
of use, the glass should require cleaning no more than two or three times a season. Do not clean the
glass when it is hot.
