WARNING
• Turn off the gas and electrical power before servicing the appliance.
• Appliance may be hot. Do not service until appliance has cooled.
• Do not use abrasive cleaners on glass.
• Do not paint the pilot assembly.
1. In order to properly clean the burner and pilot assembly, remove the glass to expose both assemblies.
2. Keep the control compartment, media, burner, air shutter opening and the area surrounding the appliance clean by vacuuming
or brushing, at least once a year.
3. Check to see that all burner ports are burning. Clean out any of the ports which may not be burning or are not burning properly.
4. Check to see that the pilot flame is large enough to engulf the flame sensor and/or thermocouple / thermopile as well as it
reaches the burner.
5. If your appliance is equipped with a safety barrier, cleaning may be necessary due to excessive lint / dust from carpeting,
pets, etc. Simply vacuum using the brush attachment.
6. If your appliance is equipped with relief doors, ensure the system performs effectively. Check that the gasket is not worn or
damaged. Replace if necessary.
7. Replace the cleaned glass. Failure to properly position the media may cause carboning which can be distributed
in the surrounding living area, inside the firebox and on exterior surfaces surrounding vent termination.
8. Check to see that the main burner ignites completely on all ports when turned on A 5 to 10 second total light-up period is
satisfactory. If ignition takes longer, consult your local authorized dealer / distributor.
9. Visually inspect the appliance for carbon build up. Using a small whisk or brush, brush off the carbon and vacuum up or sweep
into garbage.
10. This step is not applicable for Vent Free appliances: Check to see that the appliance is venting correctly. Ensure chimney
system is safe and unobstructed. (If for any reason the vent air intake system is disassembled, re-install and re-seal per
the instructions provided for the initial installation).
This appliance and its venting system should be inspected before use and at least annually by a qualified service person. The follow-
ing suggested checks should be performed by a qualified technician. The appliance area must be kept clear and free of combustible
materials, gasoline, or other flammable vapors and liquids. The flow of combustion and ventilation air must not be obstructed.

Caution: Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls. Wiring errors can cause improper and dangerous operation.
