MAINTENANCE
INSTRUCTIONS
1) Always turn the gas valve to off before cleaning.
For relighting, refer to lighting instructions. Keep
the burner and control compartment clean by
brushing and vacuuming at least once a year.
When cleaning the logs, use a clean soft paint
brush as the logs are fragile and easily dam-
aged.
2) Clean (never when unit is hot) appliance, door
and louvers with a damp cloth. Never use an
abrasive cleaner. The gold louvers (and optional
gold door) may be scratched if abrasives are
used to clean them.
The heater is finished in a heat resistant paint
and should only be refinished with heat resistant
paint (not with wall paint). FPI uses StoveBrite
Paint - Metallic Black #6309.
3) Make a periodic check of burner for proper posi-
tion and condition. Visually check the flame of
the burner periodically, making sure the flames
are steady; not lifting or floating. If there is a
problem, call a qualified service person.
4) The appliance and venting system must be
inspected before use, and at least annually,
by a qualified field service person, to ensure
that the flow of combustion and ventilation air
is not obstructed.
During the annual service call, the burners
should be removed from the burner tray and
cleaned. Replace the embers but do not block
the pilot.
5) Keep the area near the appliance clear and
free from combustible materials, gasoline and
other flammable vapours and liquids.
6) Each time the appliance is lit, it may cause
condensation and fog the glass. This con-
densation and fog is normal and will disap-
pear in a few minutes as the glass heats up.
Never operate the appliance without the
glass properly secured in place, with
broken glass or with the door open.
7) Verify proper operation after servicing.
8) Periodically check the pilot flames, there
should be three strong blue flames approx.
3/4" long - 1 flame to the front burner, and
1 to the thermopile and one to the left. See
diagrams below.
If you have an incorrect flame pattern, contact
your FPI dealer for further instructions.
CLOTHING OR OTHER FLAM-
MABLE MATERIAL SHOULD NOT
BE PLACED ON OR NEAR THE
APPLIANCE.
If the glass gasket requires replacement use
7/8" flat glass gasket (Part # 936-243) for the Bay
Front and for the Flush Front.
DOOR GLASS
REPLACEMENT
Your Regency insert is supplied with high tem-
perature, 5 mm Neoceram ceramic glass that will
withstand the highest heat that your unit will produce.
In the event that you break your glass by impact,
purchase your replacement from an authorized FPI
dealer only, and follow our step-by-step instructions
for replacement.
Flush Glass Replacement
Slide old glass out of the side frames and replace
with new glass.
WARNING: CHILDREN AND
ADULTS SHOULD BE ALERTED
TO THE HAZARDS OF HIGH
SURFACE TEMPERATURE AND
SHOULD STAY AWAY TO AVOID
BURNS OR CLOTHING IGNITION.
YOUNG CHILDREN SHOULD BE
CAREFULLY SUPERVISED WHEN
THEY ARE IN THE SAME ROOM
AS THE APPLIANCE.
LOG REPLACEMENT
The unit should never be used with broken logs.
Turn off the gas valve and allow the unit to cool
before opening door to carefully remove the logs.
The pilot light generates enough heat to burn
someone. If for any reason a log should need
replacement, you must use the proper replace-
ment log. The position of these logs must be as
shown in the diagram under Log Installation.
NOTE: Improper positioning of logs may
create carbon build-up and will alter
the unit’s performance which is not
covered under warranty.
