MAINTENANCE

TURN OFF THE GAS AND UNPLUG ELECTRICAL POWER BEFORE SERVICING THE FIREPLACE INSERT!

CAUTION: Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls. Wiring errors can cause improper and dangerous operation. Verify proper operation after servic- ing. This insert and its venting system should be in- spected before use and at least annually by a qualified service person. The fireplace area must be kept clear and free of combustible materials, gasoline or other flam- mable vapours and liquids. The flow of combustion and ventilation air must not be obstructed.

1. In order to properly clean the burner and pilot assembly, remove the logs exposing both assemblies.

2. Keep the control compartment, logs, burner, air shutter opening and the area surrounding the logs clean by vacu- uming or brushing, at least once a year.

3. Check to see that all burner ports are burning. Clean out any of the ports which may not be burning or are not burn- ing properly.

4. Check to see that the pilot flame is large enough to engulf the thermocouple on one leg and reaches toward the burner on the other leg.

5. Replace the cleaned logs.

6. Check to see that the main burner ignites completely on all openings when the gas knob for the burner is turned on. A 5-10 second total light-up period is satisfactory. If ignition takes longer, consult your Napoleon dealer/dis- tributor.

7.Check that the door gasketing is not broken or missing. Replace if necessary.

Remove the pilot screw cap. Adjust the pilot screw to pro- vide properly sized flame. Turn in a clockwise direction to reduce the gas flow. Replace the pilot screw cap.

Natural gas has the air shutter set at 1/4" opening; pro- pane has the air shutter set at 3/8" opening. Closing the air
