Cleaning and

Maintenance

When lit for the first time, the appliance may emit a slight odor for about 16 - 24 hours. This is normal and is due to the “curing” of the logs and the “burn-in” of internal paints and lubricants used in the manufactur- ing process. Keep compartments, logs, burners, and area surrounding the logs clean by vacuuming or brushing at least twice a year. Temporary removal of the log set may ease the cleaning of the burner and pilot assembly. In cleaning, take care not to alter the pilot or burner location. Be sure appliance is cool before each maintenance session.

CAUTION: The appliance and logs can get very hot. Handle only when cool.

WARNING: Turn off gas and wall switch before servicing appliance. Any safety screen or guard removed for servicing the appliance must be replaced prior to operating the appliance.

WARNING: Make certain wires and gas lines are not touching the underside of the firebox.

WARNING: Make certain that wires and gas lines are not touching underside of firebox.

WARNING: Children and adults should be alerted to the hazards of high surface tem- peratures, and to stay away from the appliance to avoid burns or clothing ignition. Young children should be carefully supervised when they are in the same room as the appliance.

WARNING: Have a qualified agency periodically inspect the vent system at the start of each heating season, for any obstruc- tion which may hinder its normal operation. Never obstruct the flow of combustion and venti- lation air. Keep the front of the appliance clear of all obstacles and materials.

Caution: Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls. Wiring errors can cause improper and danger- ous operation.
