5. Loosen the two screws nearest the bulb to disengage the bulb from the holder. Remove the bulb
from the holder. Replace the bulb, making sure not to touch the bulb with your fingers (grasp the bulb
with the bulb packaging or a paper towel). Tighten the screws until the bulb is secure (do not over-
tighten, this may damage the electrical contacts on the bulb).
6. Return the fireplace to the correct configuration.
Yearly Service Procedure
Failure to inspect and maintain the fireplace may lead to improper combustion and a potentially
dangerous situation. We recommend the following procedures be done by a qualified technician.
1. Turn the pilot flame to continuous. It should touch approximately 3/8" of the top of the flame sensor. If it does
not, contact your dealer for service.
2. Shut off gas to the fireplace and let it cool for 15 minutes. Remove the glass (see page 21).
3. Remove the log set (
NOTE: The logs are very fragile —
see page 23). If severely deteriorated, replace.
Check the logs for sooting. A small amount of soot along the bottom of the logs is normal. If excessive sooting
is found, the fireplace will require adjustment. Contact your dealer.
4. Inspect the burner and remove any debris.
•
Make sure the burner is not warped, cracked, or damaged.
•
Check the firebox and area around the pilot to make sure there is no warping or damage.
•
If any problem is found, discontinue use and contact your dealer for service.
5. Replace the log set. Clean and replace the glass (see
Glass Cleaning
on page 23). If the glass is damaged,
replace. Make sure the gasket along the perimeter of the glass contacts the face of the firebox and forms an air-
tight seal. If it does not, re-align or replace the gasket to insure an air-tight seal.
6. Inspect the area behind the access door. Clean if necessary. Check the gas
control valve and the gas lines. If damage is found, discontinue use and contact
your dealer for service. Clean the air channels, ducts, and blower (if applicable).
7. Start the main burner. Inspect the main burner and pilot flame. After 15 minutes
the flames should be orange/yellow and not touch the top of the firebox. If the
pilot or main burners do not burn correctly, contact your dealer for service.
Monitor blower operation.
8. Remove any debris or vegetation near the vent termination. Contact your dealer
if any sooting or deterioration is found near the vent termination. Venting system
should be examined by a qualified agency.
