REPLACING REFLECTIvE RIBBONS
If reflective ribbons become damaged or loose
they may be replaced as follows:
1. Turn off all power to fireplace at circuit
breaker or fuse.
. Locate defective ribbon; there are 3 strips
mounted on rear cabinet and 3 mounted
in base (see Figure 35, page 19).
3. If upper back cabinet ribbons need re-
placing, remove 4 Phillips screws holding
corresponding bottom and top hanger
brackets (see Figure 35, page 19).
4. Remove any loose or damaged ribbon
material.
5. Cut an 18” strip of reflective ribbon and
position top end about an inch above top
bracket position (see Figure 35, page 19).
Note:
Ribbon material should be ap-
plied with reflective side up, should not
be twisted or tangled, and should hang
slightly loose to allow free movement.
If additional parts are required, see
Re-
placement Parts
, page 1.

lips screws removed in step and tighten

damaged ends of ribbon.
9. Cut a 9" long strip of ribbon and apply
across each ribbon support bracket with
shiny side facing up (see Figure 35,
page 19).
10. Secure ribbon to brackets by replacing
each washer at end of the ribbon and re-
threading screws through the ribbon into
each hole located on support brackets.
11. If replacing top reflective ribbons on base
cover, cut a 3" section of ribbon and split
down the middle. With shiny side up, attach
with cellophane tape into rear edge of base
cover opening (see Figure 35, page 19).
12. Readjust flame pennants (if removed). See
