CAUTIONWear gloves and safety glasses for protection while doing
required maintenance.
IMPORTANT
Always verify proper operation after servicing.
WARNING
Turn off gas and electrical power before servicing the appliance.
OPERATION AND CARE OF YOUR
APPLIANCE
Appliance operation may be controlled
through a remotely located optional wall
thermostat or remote control.
In lieu of remote control or remote wall thermo-
stat operation, the appliance must be operated
directly through the off/on switch located on the
side surround panel (see Figure 4).
If your millivolt appliance is equipped with an
optional wall thermostat kit or remote control
kit and the pilot is lit (and valve is in the On
position), the appliance main burner may be
turned on and off with the wall thermostat
or remote control.
Always keep the appliance area clear and free
from combustible materials, gasoline and
other flammable liquids.
Remember, millivolt appliances have a
continuous burning pilot flame. Exercise
caution when using products with combus-
tible vapors.

MAINTENANCE

The appliance and venting system should be
thoroughly inspected before initial use and at
least annually by a qualified service technician.
However, more frequent periodic inspections
and cleanings should be performed by the
homeowner. Homeowner must contact a quali-
fied service technician at once if any abnormal
condition is observed.
Refer to the maintenance schedule on Page
7 for maintenance tasks, procedures, recom-
mended frequency and by whom they should
be performed. Always verify proper operation
of the appliance after servicing.
Always turn off the gas and unplug the power
cord to the appliance before cleaning. Before
re-lighting, refer to the lighting instructions
in this manual. Instructions are also found on
pull-out panels located below the glass door in
the control compartment.
Keep lower control compar tment clean by
vacuuming or brushing at least twice a year.
More frequent cleaning may be required due to
excessive lint from carpeting, bedding materials,
etc. It is important that control compartments,
burners and circulating air passageways of the
appliance be kept clean.
Check Burner Flame Appearance
Visually check the flame of the burner periodi-
cally making sure the flames are steady and not
lifting or floating (see Figure 13 on Page 8).

Glass Cleaning

Note: Clean glass after first two weeks of opera-
tion (after Burn-In period is over).
The viewing glass should be cleaned periodi-
cally to remove any build-ups caused from the
following:
• During start-up, it is normal for condensa-
tion to form on the inside of the glass (this
condensation and fog will usually disappear
in a few minutes). This can cause lint, dust
and other airborne particles to cling to the
glass surface.
• Initial curing of the high temperature paint
and burning off of lubricants used in the
manufacturing process may result in a film
on the glass.
• A white coating may form on the glass as a
result of impurities and minerals in the fuel.
It is recommended that the glass be cleaned
two or three times during each heating season,
depending on the circumstances present.
Use one of the following to clean glass:
• Non-ammonia based household cleaner
• 50%-50% mix of white vinegar & water
• gas stove glass cleaner
WARNINGDo not attempt to touch the front enclosure glass with your hands while the fireplace is in use. IMPORTANTDo not use abrasive cleaners on glass. Never clean the glass when it is hot.
