CAUTION: You must keep control areas, burners and circulating air passageways of fireplace clean. Inspect these areas of fireplace before each use.

WARNING: Do not use abrasive cleaners as this maydamageglass.Useanonabrasivehouseholdglass cleaner to clean glass. Do not clean glass when hot.

Glass must be cleaned periodically. During start-up it is normal for condensation to form on the inside of the glass causing lint, dust and other airborne particles to cling to the glass surface. During initial start-up a slight film may form on the glass due to paint curing. The glass should be cleaned several times with a non-ammonia, nonabrasive household cleaner and warm water after the first two weeks of operation. Thereafter, clean the glass two or three times during each heating season, depending on the usage and circum- stances present. Refer to Removing/Replacing Glass Door on page 20 of this manual when removing glass door for cleaning.

WARNING: Only parts supplied by the manu- facturer should be used when replacing broken or damaged glass door panel (see Replacement Parts, page 28). This glass door panel is a complete unit. No substitute materials may be used.

CAUTION: Do not vacuum if pieces are hot.

Use only the tempered glass door replacement intended for this fireplace (see Replacement Parts, page 28 for detail on ordering). No substitutions may be made. See Removing/Replacing Glass Door, page 20 for instructions for replacing glass door.

WARNING: Do not operate fireplace with the glass door unlatched, removed, cracked or broken.

PILOT AND BURNERS

Remove ember material before cleaning burners and replace when cleaning is complete.

Burner and controls should be cleaned with compressed air to remove dust, dirt or lint.

Use a vacuum cleaner or small, soft bristled brush to remove excess dust, dirt or lint.

LOGS

If you remove log assembly for cleaning, refer to Installing Lava Rock and Glowing Embers, page 21, to properly replace logs.

Use a vacuum cleaner to remove any carbon buildup on logs.

Replace log(s) if broken. See Replacement Parts on page 28.

Replace ember material periodically as needed. See Replacement Parts on page 28.

VENTING SYSTEM

Conduct annual inspection of the venting system following these guidelines:

1.Check areas of venting system that are exposed to the weather for corrosion (rust spots or streaks and, in extreme cases, holes). Have these items replaced immediately by a qualified service person.

2.Remove the vent cap and shine a flashlight into the vent. Re- move any foreign material.

3.Check for evidence of excessive condensation. Continuous condensation can cause corrosion of caps, pipes and fittings and can be caused by having excessive lateral runs, too many elbows or exterior portions of the system being exposed to cold weather.

4.Inspect joints to verify that no pipe section or fitting has been disturbed and loosened. Check mechanical supports such as wall straps for rigidity.
