MAINTENANCE
TURN OFF THE GAS AND ELECTRICAL POWER
BEFORE SERVICING THE FIREPLACE.
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 qualifi ed service person. The fi replace 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.
1.In order to properly clean the burner and oxygen deple- tion sensor system, remove the logs to expose both as- semblies.
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 fl ame is large enough to engulf the thermocouple and thermopile and promptly ignites the main burner.
5.Replace the cleaned logs.
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 10 second total

CLEANING
This procedure must be performed by a qualified
service person!
Inspect the pilot for any visible contamination or debris (usually lint, pet hair, spider webs, carpet fi bre, etc.) and remove.
Disconnect the pilot from the pilot tubing line. Using a 7/16” wrench, remove the injector from the pilot housing. Blow out the housing in the same direction as the gas fl ow.
If this does not improve the performance, replace the pilot with an exact replacement. The device is tamper resistant with no fi eld serviceable parts.

VENTURI ADJUSTMENT
Air shutter adjustment must only be done by a quali-
fied gas installer!
Closing the air shutter will cause a more yellow fl ame, but can lead to carboning.
WARNING: Carbon can be distributed in surrounding living area if the air shutter is improperly adjusted.
Opening the air shutter will cause a more blue fl ame, but can cause fl ame lifting from the burner ports. The fl ame may not appear yellow immediately; allow 15 to 30 minutes for the fi nal fl ame colour to be established.
Opening the air shutter will also reduce exhaust odours smelled within the room. See Trouble Shooting Guide.
