IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS 

 

Although your gas logs are very realistic in appearance, it is not a real burning fireplace and must not be 
used for burning rejected material. 

• 

To avoid irreparable damage to the heater or personal injury, matches, paper, garbage, or any other 
material 

must not 

be placed or thrown on top of the logs or into the flames. 

• 

To avoid personal injury, do not touch hot surfaces when the heater is operating. 

• 

Close supervision is necessary when the heater is being operated near children. 

 

WARNING:

  THE LOGS ARE MANUFACTURED FROM 

BONDED CERAMIC FIBER.  THIS IS A COMMONLY USED 
MATERIAL IN INDUSTRY WORLDWIDE.  IN THE EVENT THAT A 
LOG SHOULD BE REMOVED, CARE SHOULD BE TAKEN NOT TO 
DAMAGE THE BONDED MATERIAL. 
INTENTIONAL MISUSE OR DELIBERATELY FRAGMENTING THE 
MATERIAL COULD LEAD TO INHALING FIBERS AND BE 
HAZARDOUS TO YOUR HEALTH. 
 
THIS HEATER IS INTENDED FOR USE AS A GAS HEATER 
FIREPLACE AS DESCRIBED IN THESE INSTRUCTIONS.  IT SHOULD 
NOT BE USED FOR ANY OTHER PURPOSE. 
 

CLEANING 

CAUTION

:

  BEFORE CLEANING OR MOVING THESE LOGS OR 

OTHER PARTS OF THE HEATER, BE SURE TO READ THE ABOVE 
SECTIONS ON “IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS.” 
 
See page 10, figure 6 before cleaning. 

The appliance must be turned “OFF” 

before cleaning inside the firebox (burn area), make sure the pilot is “OFF” 
completely and the appliance has cooled.   

• 

All cleaning should be carried out when the heater is cold.  Limited cleaning is required 
with normal  use.  Dusting the front of the base, the top of the piezo cover, or the control 
knob panel may be required occasionally.  Do not use cleaning fluids to clean the logs or 
any other part of the heater. 

• 

If the flames show unusual shapes or behavior, or if burner fails to ignite properly, the 
burner holes may require cleaning.  If this occurs, contact your nearest dealer to service the 
heater. 

• 

The heater can be cleaned by removing the logs.  Lift the logs gently, as  not to damage the 
fiber pieces. The logs have been spot glued in place for shipping, use caution when 
removing.   Lift each log by holding it carefully at each end.  Use a vacuum cleaner to 
remove dust and loose particles from the base, logs and around the burner and ODS/Pilot.  
Gloves are recommended to prevent fibers from breaking the skin.  If skin is broken, clean 
with soap and water. 

 

WARNING: 

Failure to keep the primary air openings(s) of the burner(s) clean may result 

in sooting and property damage.
