Initializing the Remote Control
You should not be required to synchronize
communication between the Receiver and the
Remote Control transmitter when you change the
batteries in either. If the system does not respond to
commands issued from the remote after changing
batteries, follow the sequence for synchronizing the
remote and transmitter described on page 30.
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
service 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.
As Needed:
Glass and Gasket Replacement
In the event that you need to repair or replace a
cracked or broken glass, order kit 97-58621
(complete side glass assembly with frame) or 97-
58620 (complete side glass assembly with frame)
and use the following instructions to replace the
components. Your Waitsfield uses a folded flat
fiberglass gasket to make a tight seal between the
glass frame and the firebox. In time, the gasket can
become brittle and compressed and should be
replaced using the following instructions. New
gasket material is also available from your
Authorized Hearthstone Dealer. Protect your hands
with work gloves, and wash up later.
If Replacing Glass
1. Allow the Waitsfield to cool completely. If the
glass is severely broken, first pull the broken
fragments of glass away from the firebox using
heavy-duty gloves.
2. Dismount the top casting, front cast panel and
side cast panels.
3. To dismount the side panels, first remove the
top and front façade. Remove the top front
machine screw while holding the panel, and then
lift the side panel off the stove (
See Figure 44
).
4. Dismount the front glass assembly by releasing
the upper spring clips – then lift the frame up
and out of the lower mounting points.
5. Dismount the side glass assemblies by
removing the six screws (retain for reassembly)
securing the frame to the firebox. Ensure the
glass doesn’t fall out of the frame during
removal.
6. Remove the glass from the front glass frame by
drilling out the four 1/8” rivets on the upper glass
clips. Push the top of the glass slightly away
from the frame and lift it up above the lower
clips, and then out of the frame, set it aside.
7. Remove the glass from the side frames by lifting
the frame off the glass. You may have to hold
the glass down while pulling up on the frame. Do
this as evenly as possible to avoid bending the
frame, or breaking the glass.
8. Remove the existing gasket from each piece of
glass by grasping one end and pulling firmly.
Clean off as much of the hanging fiber “hairs” as
possible
