Maintenance
WARNINg:
Disconnect power before attempting any
maintenance or cleaning to reduce the risk of fire, electric
shock or damage to persons.
Light Bulb Replacement
Allow at least five (5) minutes for the light bulbs to cool
before touching them to avoid accidental burning of the skin.
The light bulbs need to be replaced when you notice a dark
section of the flame or when the clarity and detail of the log
Ember Bed exterior reduces. There are three (3) bulbs under
the Log Set, which generate the flames and embers, and two
(2) bulbs above the log that illuminate the log exterior.

with an E-12 (small) socket base, 60 Watt rating. Example:
