!WARNING

TURN OFF THE GAS AND ELECTRICAL POWER BEFORE SERVICING THE APPLIANCE.

CAUTION: Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls. Wiring errors can cause improper and dangerous operation. Verify proper operation after servicing. This fireplace and its venting system should be inspected 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 flammable vapors 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, rocks and/or glass to expose both assemblies.

2.Keep the control compartment, media, burner, air shutter opening and the area surrounding the logs clean by vacuuming 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 burning properly.

4.Check to see that the pilot flame is large enough to engulf the flame sensor and/or thermocouple / thermopile as well as reaches the burner.

5.Replace the cleaned logs, rocks or glass. Failure to properly position the media may cause carboning which can be distributed in the surrounding living area.

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

7.Check that the gasketing on the sides, top and bottom of the door is not broken or missing. Replace if necessary.

8.If for any reason the vent air intake system is disassembled, re-install and re-seal per the instructions provided for the initial installation.
