CLEANING AND

MAINTENANCE

WARNING: Turn off heater and let cool before cleaning.

CAUTION: You must keep control areas, burners and circulating air passageways of heater clean. Inspect these areas of heater before each use. Have heater inspected yearly by a qualified service person. Heater may need more frequent cleaning due to excessive lint from carpeting, pet hair, bedding material, etc.

4.Blow air through the ports/slots and holes in the burner.

5.Check the injector holder located at the end of the burner tube again. Remove any large particles of dust, dirt, lint or pet hair with a soft cloth or vacuum cleaner nozzle.

6.Blow air into the primary air holes on the injector holder.

7.In case any large clumps of dust have now been pushed into the burner repeat steps 3 and 4.

8.Replace front log and control cover log (see Installing Logs, page 15).

Clean the pilot assembly also. A yellow tip on the pilot flame indicates dust and dirt in the pilot as- sembly. There is a small pilot air inlet hole about two inches from where the pilot flame comes out of the pilot assembly (see Figure 30). With the unit off, lightly blow air through the air inlet hole. You may blow through a drinking straw if compressed air is not available.

WARNING: Failure to keep the primary air opening(s) of the burner(s) clean may result in sooting and property damage.

burning flame. Keep these holes clear of dust, dirt, lint and pet hair. Clean these air inlet holes prior to each heating season. Blocked air holes will create soot. We recommend that you clean the unit every three months during operation and have heater inspected yearly by a qualified service person.

We also recommend that you keep the burner tube and pilot assembly clean and free of dust and dirt. To clean these parts we recommend using compressed air no greater than 30 PSI. Your local computer store, hardware store or home center may carry compressed air in a can. You can use a vacuum cleaner in the blow position. If using com- pressed air in a can, please follow the directions on the can. If you don't follow directions on the can, you could damage the pilot assembly.

1.Remove control cover log and front log.

2.Shut off the unit, including the pilot. Allow the unit to cool for at least thirty minutes.

3.Inspect burner, pilot and primary air inlet holes on injector holder for dust and dirt (see Figures 29 and 30).
