Maintenance

The Acadia gas fireplace and its venting system should be inspected before use and at least annually by a qualified service technician.

IMPORTANT:

ALWAYS TURN OFF THE GAS SUPPLY TO THE FIREPLACE AND UNPLUG THE FORCED AIR BLOWER BEFORE ANY SER- VICE WORK IS PERFORMED ON THE FIRE- PLACE.

General Cleaning

The firebox should be vacuumed annually to remove any surface build up. Use a soft brush attachment and handle the logs carefully as they are fragile. Be sure to vacuum or wipe off the pilot assembly and burner orifice and burner tube.

Glass Care

Clean the glass only when necessary. Wipe the surface with a clean, dampened, soft cloth. Follow with a dry, soft towel. Take care not to scratch the glass surface.

WARNING:

DO NOT USE ABRASIVE CLEANERS ON THE GLASS. NEVER CLEAN THE GLASS WHEN IT IS HOT.

Gasket Inspection

It is important that the glass gasket be inspected at least annually. Examine the ribbon gasket for signs of deterioration and make sure the gasket has a positive seal. Replace the gasket if necessary. Refer to the replacement parts list on page 28.

Glass Panel or Gasket Removal

1.Open the Lower Grill Panel.

2.Release the glass clips at either side of the bottom of the firebox.

3.Swing the bottom of the glass frame out and lift to disengage it from the three retainer tabs at the top of the firebox.

4.Lay the assembly on a flat surface and carefully lift the metal tabs that secure the glass panel to the frame. Remove the old gasket material.

5.Install the new glass panel and gasket in the glass frame and secure with metal tabs. Do not over tighten tabs as that may damage the glass.
