H34D Gas Fireplace
Part No. XG0130
Maintenance
WARNING:
Do not attempt to clean glass when hot.
Do not clean glass with abrasive materials as any
glass etching may cause premature glass failure.
CAUTIONS
Fireplace gas control must be in the “OFF” position and
pilot and main burners extinguished when cleaning
appliance with a vacuum.
Doors and logs can get very hot. Handle only when cool.
General
Have the fireplace installation inspected yearly, including a visual
check of the vent system, the burner and the pilot flame. For your
convenience a 1/8" manifold pressure tap is supplied on the gas
valve for a test gauge connection. See Figure 29.
For Natural Gas this appliance requires a minimum inlet pressure of
5.5" W.C. and a manifold pressure of 3.5" W.C.
For Propane Gas this appliance requires a minimum inlet pressure
of 11" W.C. and a manifold pressure of 10" W.C.
Always keep the fireplace area clear and free of combustible
materials, as well as gasoline and other flammable vapours and
liquids.
Do not use this appliance if any part has been under water.
Immediately call a qualified service technician to inspect the appliance
and to replace any part of the control system and any gas control
which has been under water.
Operation
Lighting Instructions
See pages 14 and 15.
Burner Adjustment
The H34D is equipped with an adjustable burner, allowing you to raise
or lower the flames. To adjust the flames, locate the black knob marked
'Hi-Lo', in the centre of the gas control valve (See Figure 29). The front
burners are not adjustable.
■
To raise the flame height, turn the black knob (located behind the
lower trim) counterclockwise.
■
To lower the flame height, turn clockwise.

Cleaning
When the fireplace is first activated, there may be some smoking and a
visible film may be left on the glass. This is a normal condition, and is the
result of burning of protective coatings on new metal.
Glass must be cleaned periodically to remove any film (which is a
normal biproduct of combustion) which may be visible. Film can
easily be removed by removing the door, as shown on page 12.
Handle the door carefully, and clean it with non-abrasive glass
cleaners. One of the most effective products is Kel Kem.
Silicone seals on inner door during initial firing will "off gas", leaving a
visual deposit of a white substance on combustion chamber walls.
This can easily be removed using normal household products.
Use a vacuum cleaner or whisk broom to keep the control
compartment, burner, and firebox free from dust and lint.
Logs may be cleaned periodically with a vacuum to remove soot or
other contaminates.
