Clean Firebox, Pilot, & Burner Assembly
The firebox requires periodic cleaning to prevent the
accumulation of dust, lint, and other debris. To clean
the firebox, set the switch to the “OFF” position, and
turn off the gas supply to the valve. When the unit is
cool, remove the front panel and glass (see page 9
for Firebox Access instructions) and carefully remove
the decorative ceramic log set, taking care not to
damage the logs or chip the enamel cast iron.
Remove all ember material. Clean the firebox baffle,
burner, and carefully vacuum the entire surface of the
log set with a soft brush attachment. Thoroughly
vacuum the ports (holes) along the top of the burner,
and the pilot assembly.
With the decorative ceramic logs out of the firebox ,
reseal the firebox and briefly light the unit according
to the lighting instructions described on page 22.
Check to ensure a proper flame is burning from each
burner port. The pilot flame should be burning
properly as shown in
Figure 17.
NOTE: Do not operate the unit for more than
1-2 minutes without the log set in place. Turn
the unit off by setting the switch to “OFF”, and
turning off the gas supply to the valve. Allow
the unit to cool.
Check and clean any burner ports that are not
burning, or not burning properly. Clean burner ports
using a soft brush or vacuum cleaner. If the pilot flame
height needs adjustment, it should be adjusted by
qualified service personnel as described on page 23.
Complete the cleaning procedure by carefully placing
the log set within the firebox as described on pages
25-27. Reattach the glass to seal the firebox and
install front/top castings. Turn on the gas, light the unit
and check for proper operation. Flame patterns
should look similar to the flames in
Figure 40, page
30.
Regularly check to ensure the area around the
Bristol is kept free from combustible materials,
gasoline, and other flammable vapors and liquids.
Check that the flow of combustion and ventilation air
is not obstructed.

Professional Inspection
Installation and repair should be done by a qualified
service person. The appliance should be inspected
before use and at least annually by a qualified servic e
person. More frequent cleaning may be required due
to excessive lint from carpeting, bedding material, etc.
It is imperative that control compartments, burners
and circulating air passageways of the appliance be
kept clean.
L’installation et la réparation devrait être
confiées à un technicien qualifié. L’appareil devrait
faire l’objet d’une inspection par un technicien
professionnel avant d’être utilisé et au moins une fois
l’an par la suite. Des nettoyages plus fréquents
peuvent être nécessaires si les tapis, la literie, et
cetera produisent une quantité importante de
poussière. Il est essentiel que les compartiments
abritant les commandes, les brûleurs et les conduits
de circulation d’air de l’appareil soient tenus propres.
