CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Continued
Clean pilot assembly also. Additional cleaning may be needed for
proper pilot operation based on use/lack of use. A yellow tip on the
pilot flame may indicate dust and dirt in the pilot assembly. There is
a small pilot air inlet hole about from where the pilot flame comes
out of pilot assembly (see Figure 32). With unit off, lightly blow
air through air inlet hole. You may blow through a drinking straw if
compressed air is not available.

LOGS
• If you remove logs for cleaning, refer to Installing Logs and Volcanic
Stone, Page 12, to properly replace logs.
• Replace log(s) if broken or chipped (dime-sized or larger).
MAIN BURNER
Periodically inspect all burner flame holes with appliance running. All
slotted burner flame holes should be open with flame present. All round
burner flame holes should be open with a small blue flame present. Some
burner flame holes may become blocked by debris or rust, with no flame
present. If so, turn off appliance and let cool. Remove blockage, blocked
burner flame holes will create soot.
The burner must be replaced prior to the appliance being put into
operation if it is evident that the burner is damaged (use only factory
original replacement burner).
WARNING: The injector holders (air shutters) are
not adjustable. Do not move injector holders from
their original positions.
(if installed as a vented appliance) At least once a
year, the vent system for the fireplace in which this
appliance is installed shall be inspected, cleaned, and
repaired as necessary by a qualified service person.
