OWNER’S MANUAL

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

WARNING: Turn off heater and let cool before cleaning.

CAUTION: You must keep control areas, burner, and circu- lating air passageways of heater clean. Inspect these areas of heater before each use. Have heater inspected yearly by a quali- fied service person. Heater may need more frequent cleaning due to excessive lint from carpeting, bedding material, etc.

ODS/PILOT AND BURNER

Use a vacuum cleaner or small, soft bristled brush to clean.

LOGS

If you remove logs for cleaning, refer to Installing Logs, page 13, to properly re- place logs.

Replace log(s) if broken or chipped (dime-sized or larger).

BURNER PRIMARY AIR HOLES

Air is drawn into the burner through the 8 holes in the brass fitting at the burner en- trance. These holes may become blocked with dust or lint. Periodically inspect these holes for any blockage and clean if needed. Blocked air holes will create soot.

MAIN BURNER

Periodically inspect all burner flame holes with the heater running. All slotted burner flame holes should be open with yellow flame present. All round burner flame holes should be open with a small blue flame present. Some burner flame holes may be- come blocked by debris or rust, with no flame present. If so, turn off heater and let cool. Either remove blockage or replace burner. Blocked burner flame holes will create soot.
