1) Always turn off the gas valve before cleaning.
For relighting, refer to lighting instructions.
Keep the burner and control compartment
clean by brushing and vacuuming at least
once a year. When cleaning the logs, use a
soft clean paint brush as the logs are fragile
and easily damaged.

GENERAL VENT
MAINTENANCE
Conduct an inspection of the venting system
semi-annually. Recommended areas to inspect
as follows:
semi-annually. Recommended areas to inspect
as follows:
1) Check the Venting System for corrosion in
areas that are exposed to the elements.
These will appear as rust spots or streaks,
and in extreme cases, holes. These compo-
nents should be replaced immediately.

or other foreign material.
3) Check for evidences of excessive
condensation, such as water droplets
forming in the inner liner, and subsequently
dripping out the joints, Continuous
condensation can cause corrosion of
caps, pipe, and fi ttings. It may be caused
by having excessive lateral runs, too many
elbows, and exterior portions of the system
being exposed to cold weather.

GOLD-PLATED or
BRASS LOUVERS/
TRIM
The 24 carat gold-plated or brass fi nish on the
louvers and trim requires little maintenance,
and need only be cleaned with a damp cloth.
DO NOT use abrasive materials or chemical
cleaners, as they may harm the fi nish and
void the warranty. Clean any fi ngerprints
off before turning the unit on.

LOG REPLACEMENT
The unit should never be used with broken logs.
Turn off the gas valve and allow the unit to cool
before opening door and carefully remove the
logs. (The pilot light generates enough heat to
burn someone.) If for any reason a log should
need replacement, you must use the proper
replacement log. The position of these logs
must be as shown in the diagrams under Log
Installation.

NORMAL OPERATING
SOUNDS OF
GAS APPLIANCES
It is possible that you will hear some sounds
from your gas appliance. This is perfectly normal
due to the fact that there are various gauges
and types of steel used within your appliance.
Listed below are some examples. All are normal
operating sounds and should not be considered
as defects in your appliance.

gas appliances use high tech blowers
to push heated air farther into the room. It is not
unusual for the fan to make a "whirring" sound
when ON. This sound will increase or decrease
in volume depending on the speed setting of
your fan speed control.

Burner Tray:
The burner tray is positioned directly under the
burner tube(s) and logs and is made of a different
gauge material from the rest of the fi rebox and
body. Therefore, the varying thicknesses of steel
will expand and contract at slightly different
rates which can cause "ticking" and "cracking"
sounds. You should also be aware that as there
are temperature changes within the unit these
sounds will likely re-occur. Again, this is normal
for steel fi reboxes.
