INSPECTING bURNERS

Check pilot flame pattern and burner flame pat-

terns often.

PILOT ASSEMBLY

The pilot assembly is factory preset for the proper

flame height. Alterations may have occurred dur-

ing shipping and handling. Call a qualified service

person to readjust the pilot if necessary.

The height of the thermopile must be 3/8" to 1/2"

above pilot flame as shown if Figure 54. The

thermocouple must be at a height of about 1/8"

above the pilot flame. The flame from the pilot

burner must extend beyond both the thermocouple

and thermopile.

If your pilot assembly does not meet these re-

quirements:

• turn fireplace off (see To Turn OFF Gas to Ap-

pliance, page 25)

• see Troubleshooting, page 32

BURNER FLAME PATTERN

Burner flames will be steady; not lifting or floating.

Flame patterns will be different from unit to unit

and will vary depending on installation type and

weather conditions.

If the vent configuration is installed incorrectly,

the flames will lift or "ghost". This can be danger-

ous. Inspect the flames after installation to ensure

proper installation and performance.

Figure 55 shows a typical flame pattern.

If burner flame pattern differs from that described:

• turn fireplace off (see To Turn Off Gas to Ap-

pliance, page 27)

• see Troubleshooting, page 32

CLEANING AND

MAINTENANCE

WARNING: Turn off fireplace

and let 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 inspected

yearly by a qualified service

person. Fireplace may need

more frequent cleaning due to

excessive lint from carpeting,

bedding material, pet hair, etc.

GLASS DOOR

WARNING: Handle glass

door panel with care. Do not

strike, slam, or otherwise abuse

glass. Do not operate fireplace

with the glass door removed,

cracked, or broken.

WARNING: Do not use abra-

sive cleaners as this may damage

glass. Use a nonabrasive house-

hold glass cleaner to clean glass.

Do not clean glass when hot.

Glass must be cleaned periodically. During start-

up it is normal for condensation to form on the

inside of the glass causing lint, dust, and other

airborne particles to cling to the glass surface.

During initial start-up a slight film may form on

the glass due to paint curing. The glass should be

cleaned several times with a non-ammonia, non-

abrasive household cleaner and warm water after

the first two weeks of operation. Thereafter, clean

the glass two or three times during each heating

season, depending on the usage and circumstances

present. Refer to Removing/Replacing Glass Door

on page 24 of this manual when removing glass

door for cleaning.
