CLEANING AND

MAINTENANCE

WARNING: Turn off the ap- pliance and allow to cool before cleaning.

CAUTION: You must keep control areas, burners and circulating air passageways of fireplace clean. Inspect these areas of fireplace before each use. Have fireplace and chimney (if applicable) inspected yearly by a qualified service person. Fireplace may need more fre- quent cleaning due to excessive lint from carpeting, bedding material, etc.

Only limited cleaning will be required under nor- mal use of this appliance. Dust the front grate and top of receiver/valve. Do not use cleaning fluids to clean logs or any other part of the appliance.

If, after a period of use, the flames start to exhibit unusual shapes and behavior or the burner fails to ignite smoothly, then the burner holes may require some cleaning. If this happens, we recommend that you contact your nearest authorized service technician to get the appliance serviced.

TRANSMITTER

If the battery light is on or the display is blank, you will need to replace the three AAA batteries in transmitter/remoter. To change batteries in the transmitter/remote, slide the battery compartment door off to expose old batteries. Place new batteries into housing and reattach door. See Figure 15.
