Maintenance Checklist
The following should only be performed by a qualified service
technician.
1. Annual inspection should be made and the following checks per-
formed:
o
When unit is cool, remove glass and inspect burner for dirt, soot
and lint accumulations and remove if necessary. If excessive soot
accumulation is present on burner, have a qualified service technician
adjust the burner for proper combustion.
o
Clean inside of glass with gas fireplace glass cleaner. NEVER attempt
to remove or clean the glass when the unit is hot.
o
Check the hot air outlet vents for lint or other accumulations. Never
block or restrict vent openings, obstruct flow of ventilation air, or use
vents other than those approved for use with this appliance.
o
Check that the chimney and its outlet are open and free of soot, block-
age, or debris. The venting system should be periodically examined
by a qualified agency.
o
Check gaskets once a year. Gaskets must be tight. Replace if neces-
sary.
o
Periodically inspect the pilot system for proper flame. Turn the pilot
ON/Auto switch to the ON position. Ensure the igniter lights the pilot.
The pilot flame should engulf the flame sensor as shown in
Figure

. See
Intermittent/Standing Pilot Mode
on
Page 23
for instructions
on switching from intermittent ignition to a standing pilot.
o
Periodically inspect the burner flame for proper appearance. See
