CUSTOMER INFORMATION
MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE SURFACE TEMPERATURE
Mendota Fireplaces comply with UL Standards for maximum surface temperatures on exposed combustible surfaces ad-
jacent to the unit. The Maximum allowable surface temperature is 117° F. over ambient (room) temperature. Thus, if a
room is 70° – 80° the exposed combustible surfaces immediately surrounding the Fireplace can have a surface tempera-
ture as high as 187° F. – 197° F. (Too hot to touch). This fireplace is certified to keep all adjacent surfaces close to this
fireplace within the allowed temperature limits as long as all clearances to such surfaces are provided as required in this
manual.
OVER FIRING OF BURNER
NEVER "over fire" units by adjusting gas pressure or drilling out the orifice to increase BTUH above nameplate specifica-
tions. Over firing can cause permanent damage to firebox and deterioration of parts and void warranty.
MAINTAINING CORRECT PILOT-FLAME -- PILOT OUTAGE & RELIGHTING
The pilot flame must be checked with millivolt meter and must always be a minimum of 325 millivolt.
Never lower (reduce) pilot flame below this minimum 325-millivolt setting. If pilot flame goes out, always wait 5 minutes
before relighting. Always remove glass when lighting pilot.
CLEANING VIEWING GLASS
The viewing glass should be cleaned periodically. Exterior glass surface may be cleaned with cleaner as desired. To
clean interior surface of glass - use soap and water. CAUTION: Do not use oven cleaner to clean glass.
NOTE : Additives that are put in gas (both natural and propane) to make it smell can be harmful to glass and can leave a
white film deposit on the glass. This deposit can be removed with cleaners such as KEL KEM “Polish Plus” (part # 65-06-
00455) or comparable product (contact your dealer).
In some cases (especially when burning propane) additives can cause “crazing” or etching of the glass. This is not a
common occurrence. However, any “crazing” or etching of the glass is not covered under the warranty. The solution may
be to change propane suppliers.
SOOTING
Sooting is caused by improper installation or air shutter operation. However, some small areas of soot deposits on log
surfaces are deemed acceptable. If you observe large soot areas (larger than 1”x1”) on log surfaces or signs of sooting
on the door glass (usually a thin black film on the Fireplace viewing glass or on the outside of the home around the vent
cap), the unit must be immediately turned off and the local Mendota dealer promptly informed. Mendota dealers will cor-
rect "sooting" problems, but Mendota and their dealers are not responsible for damage caused by excessive sooting that
has not been immediately brought to their attention.
OPERATION DURING POWER FAILURE
This fireplace is designed to operate during power outages. Blower will not function during power outages. However, all
burners will continue to function normally. Heat output will be reduced slightly without the blower functioning (approx-
imately 5% less).
