MAINTENANCE
1.
The appliance should be inspected before initial use and inspected and cleaned at least
annually by a qualified service person.
2.
Tampering is DANGEROUS and voids all warranties. Any component that is found to be
faulty, must be replaced with an approved component.
3.
To obtain proper operation, it is imperative that the burner flame characteristics are constant,
not lifting or floating. For a clean burn the unit is designed to run at full flow. If not operating
at full fuel flow black smoke may start to occur. Always operate at full fuel flow to burn clean
and prevent smoke. Dirty logs can be easily cleaned off with water and light soap.
4.
Periodically remove the logs and examine the burner and its components. If dirty, clean with
a soft brush and soapy water solution. Also examine the area around the burner. Any dirt or
foreign material, such as spider webs or nests in this area should be removed. This will
ensure long life, safe and trouble free operation.
5.
Periodically check the hose connecting the LP gas cylinder or city network gas to ensure it is
not cracked or damaged in any way.
INSPECTION AFTER REPAIR
Any repairs must be performed by a qualified installer, service agency or your gas provider.
1. Check all the joints.
2. Smell all around the appliance area for gas odors and test for gas leaks according to
Testing
for Leaks
on page 13.
3. Light the appliance according to the
LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
on page 15.
NOTE:
Carbon (soot) may built up on the surface of the logs over time or with extended use.
This is more likely to occur when using LP gas. The soot should be cleaned off the surfaces of
the imitation logs periodically to prevent excessive build up. To clean the logs, be sure the fire is
out, the gas supply is turned off and the logs are cool to the touch. The soot can then be
brushed of with a dry bristle brush or cloth. Take care while cleaning the logs as they can
become damaged if mishandled. Care should be taken to dispose of the soot and the cleaning
materials properly. Keep away from clothing and outdoor furniture.
During the cold winter months or in colder climates, it is recommended to disconnect the built-in
gas fire burner kit and cover the lid.
