WARNING
• Turn off the gas and electrical power before servicing the appliance.
• Appliance may be hot. Do not service until appliance has cooled.
• Do not use abrasive cleaners on glass.
• Do not paint the pilot assembly.
This appliance and its venting system should be inspected before use and at least annually by a qualifi ed
service person. The following suggested checks should be performed by a qualifi ed technician. The appliance
area must be kept clear and free of combustible materials, gasoline, or other fl ammable vapors and liquids.
The fl ow of combustion and ventilation air must not be obstructed.
1.
In order to properly clean the burner and pilot assembly, remove the logs, rocks and/or glass to ex-
pose both assemblies.
2.
Keep the control compartment, media, burner, air shutter opening and the area surrounding the appli-
ance clean by vacuuming or brushing, at least once a year.
3.
Check to see that all burner ports are burning. Clean out any of the ports which may not be burning
or are not burning properly.
4.
Check to see that the pilot fl ame is large enough to engulf the fl ame sensor and/or thermocouple /
thermopile as well as it reaches the burner.
5.
If your appliance is equipped with a safety barrier, cleaning may be necessary due to excessive lint /
dust from carpeting, pets, etc. simply vacuum using the brush attachment.
6.
If your appliance is equipped with relief doors, ensure the system performs effectively. Check that the
gasket is not worn or damaged. Replace if necessary.
7.
Replace the cleaned logs, rocks or glass. Failure to properly position the media may cause carboning
which can be distributed in the surrounding living area, inside the fi rebox and on exterior surfaces sur-
rounding vent termination.
8.
Check to see that the main burner ignites completely on all ports when turned on. A 5 to 10 second
total light-up period is satisfactory. If ignition takes longer, consult your local authorized dealer / dis-
tributor.
9.
Visually inspect the appliance for carbon build up. Using a small whisk or brush, brush off the carbon
and vacuum up or sweep into garbage.
10.
This step is not applicable for Vent Free appliances:
Check to see that the appliance is vent-
ing correctly. Ensure chimney system is safe and unobstructed. (If for any reason the vent air intake
system is disassembled, re-install and re-seal per the instructions provided for the initial installation).
Caution: Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls. Wiring errors can cause improper and
dangerous operation. Verify proper operation after servicing.
note:
12.1 care of glass
!
WARNING
Buff lightly with a clean dry soft cloth to remove accumulated dust or fi ngerprints. Clean both sides of the glass
after the fi rst 10 hours of operation with an ammonia-free glass cleaner.
Thereafter, clean as required. If the glass is not kept clean permanent discoloration and / or blemishes may
result. Contact you local authorized dealer / distributor for complete cleaning instructions.
Razor blades, steel wool, or other metallic objects must not be used on both surfaces of the glass. Doing so
can remove a thin layer of metal from the razor blades, steel wool, or other metallic objects that may then be
deposited onto the coating. This can result in a discoloured stain or scratch-like mark. More importantly, this can
scratch the glass surface, thereby reducing its strength.
Do not operate the appliance with broken glass, as leakage of fl ue gases may result.
Contact your local authorized dealer / distributor for complete cleaning instructions.
If the glass should ever crack or break while the fi re is burning, do not open the door until the fi re is out. Do not
operate the appliance until the glass has been replaced. Contact you local authorized dealer / distributor for
replacement parts.
DO NOT SUBSTITUTE MATERIALS.

Vinegar-based glass cleaners have demonstrated an ability to provide a clean, streak free glass surface.
note:
• Do not clean glass when hot! Do not use abrasive cleaners to clean glass.
