MAINTENANCE
CAUTION: Label all wires prior to disconnection when servic- ing controls. Wiring errors can cause improper and dangerous operation. Verify proper operation after servicing. This heater should be inspected and serviced before use and at least an- nually by a qualified service person. The fireplace area must be kept clear and free of combustible materials, gasoline or other flammable vapours and liquids. The flow of combustion and ventilation air must not be obstructed.
2.Keep the control compartment, logs, burner, air shutter opening and the area surrounding the logs clean by vacuum- ing 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 burn- ing properly.
4.Check to see that the pilot flame is large enough to engulf the thermocouple and thermopile and promptly ignites the main burner.
6.Check to see that the main burner ignites completely on all openings when the gas knob for the burner is turned on. A 5 to

Cleaning Stainless Steel: Do not use abrasive cleaners to clean any painted, porcelain or stainless steel parts. To clean stainless surfaces, use a stainless steel cleaner or a non- abrasive cleaner. Always wipe in the direction of the grain.
Do not use steel wool, as it will scratch the finish. Stainless steel parts will discolour when heated, usually to a golden or brown colour. This discolouration is normal and will not affect the performance of the appliance.
VENTURI ADJUSTMENT
Air shutter adjustment must only be done by a quali-
fied gas installer!
Closing the air shutter will cause a more yellow flame, but can lead to carboning. Opening the air shutter will cause a more blue flame, but can cause flame lifting from the burner ports. The flame may not appear yellow immediately; allow 15 to 30 minutes for the final flame colour to be established. Opening the air shutter will also reduce exhaust odours. See Trouble Shooting Guide.
