Annual inspection and cleaning by your dealer or qualified
service technician is recommended to prevent malfunction
and/or sooting.
TURN OFF FIREPLACE AND ALLOW TO COOL BEFORE
CLEANING.
Remove any optional decorative covers or decorative glass
material. Gloves are recommended.
PERIODIC CLEANING - Refer to parts diagram for location of
items discussed below.
•
Do not use cleaning fluid to clean any part of fireplace.
•
Glass should be cleaned with ammonia-free cleaner.
Ammonia will etch or stain glass when heated.
•
Remove loose particles and dust from the burner, controls

CLEANING AND PILOT MAINTENANCE
Oxygen Depletion Sensor Pilot
When the pilot has a large yellow tip flame, clean the Oxygen
Depletion Sensor as follows:
1. Clean the ODS pilot by loosening nut B from the pilot tubing.
When this procedure is required, grasp nut A with an open
end wrench.
2. Use canned air to blow through the holes indicated by the
arrows. This will blow out foreign materials such as dust, lint
and spider webs. Use a wrench to hold Nut A as you tighten
Nut B.

WARNING
Never use needles, wires, or similar cylindrical objects to clean
the pilot to avoid damaging the calibrated ruby that controls the
gas flow.
3. If intermittent pilot unit stops working, clean flame sesonr C
(Figure 37) with a damp cloth.
4. If intermittent pilot ignitor does not spark, clean ignitor D (Fig
-
ure 37) with a damp cloth.
CONTROL COMPARTMENT AND BURNER MAINTENANCE
Keep the control compartment and burner area clean by vacuum
-
ing or brushing area at least twice a year.
THE FIREPLACE CAN GET VERY HOT – HANDLE ONLY
WHEN COOL.
Always turn off gas to the pilot before cleaning. For relighting,
refer to lighting instructions located on the rating plate of the
fireplace.
Never obstruct the flow of the combustion and ventilation air.
Keep the front of the fireplace clear of all obstacles and materials.
An intermittent pilot may require more frequent battery changes
than a millivolt pilot. To replace the batteries in an intermittent
unit, follow these steps:
1. Remove the outer glass. See Figures 40 - 43.
2. Remote the optional glass media from inside the fireplace.
3. Lift and set aside the burner cover.
4. Lift the heat shield that is in front of the valve.
NOTE: The battery backup and remote receiver are located
under the heat shield.
5. Replace the four AA batteries in each.
6. Replace the items removed in steps 1 through 4.
