Maintenance
The Acadia gas fireplace and its venting system
should be inspected before use and at least annually
by a qualified service technician.
IMPORTANT:
ALWAYS TURN OFF THE GAS SUPPLY TO
THE FIREPLACE AND UNPLUG THE
FORCED AIR BLOWER BEFORE ANY SER-
VICE WORK IS PERFORMED ON THE FIRE-
PLACE.
General Cleaning
The firebox should be vacuumed annually to remove
any surface build up. Use a soft brush attachment
and handle the logs carefully as they are fragile. Be
sure to vacuum or wipe off the pilot assembly and
burner orifice and burner tube.
Glass Care
Clean the glass only when necessary. Wipe the
surface with a clean, dampened, soft cloth. Follow
with a dry, soft towel. Take care not to scratch the
glass surface.
WARNING:
DO NOT USE ABRASIVE CLEANERS ON
THE GLASS. NEVER CLEAN THE GLASS
WHEN IT IS HOT.
Gasket Inspection
It is important that the glass gasket be inspected at
least annually. Examine the ribbon gasket for signs
of deterioration and make sure the gasket has a
positive seal. Replace the gasket if necessary. Refer
to the replacement parts list on page 25.
Glass Panel or Gasket Removal
1. Open the Lower Grill Panel.
2. Release the glass clips at either side of the bottom
of the firebox.
3. Swing the bottom of the glass frame out and lift
to disengage it from the three retainer tabs at the
top of the firebox.
4. Lay the assembly on a flat surface and carefully lift
the metal tabs that secure the glass panel to the
frame. Remove the old gasket material.
5. Install the new glass panel and gasket in the glass
frame and secure with metal tabs. Do not over
tighten tabs as that may damage the glass.
ONLY USE JØTUL AUTHORIZED PARTS. NEVER SUBSTI-
TUTE NON-JØTUL PARTS ON THIS FIREPLACE.
