Maintenance

General Maintenance
Inspect the built-in electric firebox regularly, depending
upon conditions, and at a minimum yearly intervals.
Remove dust and clean the logs, grate, and base as
required.
WARNING: Disconnect power and allow heater to
cool before attempting any maintenance or cleaning to
reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury.
CAUTION: Except for installation and cleaning
described in this manual, an authorized service
representative should perform any other servicing.
Clean Logs and Base
The built-in electric firebox set should not be operated with
an accumulation of dust or dirt on or in the firebox, as this
can cause a build up of heat and eventual damage.
Dust and vacuum the firebox as needed. Use a damp cloth
and a mild detergent to clean painted surfaces of the built-
in electric firebox. Never use abrasive cleaners.
Clean Reflector Screen
The reflector screen is cleaned in the factory during the
assembly operation. During shipment, installation, handling,
etc., the screen may collect dust particles; these can be
removed by dusting lightly with a clean dry cloth.
To remove fingerprints or other marks, clean the reflector
screen damp cloth. Never use abrasive cleaners. Dry the
screen completely with a lint free cloth to prevent water
spots.
Remote Battery Replacement
To replace the battery:
1. Push down on the battery cover located on the back of
the remote control. Slide the battery cover open.
2. Install 3V (CR2032) Lithium battery in the battery
holder. The positive (+) side of the battery faces up.
3. Close the battery cover.
The old battery must be recycled or disposed of properly.
Check with your Local Authority or Retailer for recycling
advice in your area.
CAUTION: When transporting or storing the heater and cord,
keep in a dry place, free from excessive vibration and store
so as to avoid damage.
