Burner Adjustment
The H-Series BF is equipped with an adjustable burner, allowing you

marked 'Hi-Lo', in the centre of the gas control valve (See Figure 16).
The front burners are not adjustable.
■
To raise the flame height, turn the black knob (located behind the
lower trim)
counter-clockwise
.
■
To lower the flame height, turn
clockwise
.

Cleaning
When the fireplace is first activated, there may be some smoking and
a visible film may be left on the glass. This is a normal condition, and is
the result of burning of protective coatings on new metal.
■
Glass must be cleaned periodically to remove any film (which is
a normal by-product of combustion) which may be visible. Film
can easily be removed by removing the door, as shown on page
12. Handle the door carefully, and clean it with non-abrasive glass
cleaners. One of the most effective products is Kel Kem.
■
Silicone seals on inner door during initial firing will "off gas", leaving
a visual deposit of a white substance on combustion chamber walls.
This can easily be removed using normal household products.
■
Use a vacuum cleaner or whisk broom to keep the control
compartment, burner, and firebox free from dust and lint.
■
Logs may be cleaned periodically with a vacuum to remove soot or
other contaminates.
Note:
H-Series BF-I models (electronic ignition) do not
feature hi/lo adjustment.
