MAINTENANCE

WARNING: If the fireplace was operating prior to
servicing allow at least 10 minutes for light bulbs and
heating elements to cool off to avoid accidental burning
of skin.
WARNING: Disconnect circuit power before attempt-
ing any maintenance or cleaning to reduce the risk of
electric shock or damage to persons.
Light Bulb Replacement
Light bulbs need to be replaced when you notice a dark
section of the flame or when the clarity and detail of the
log exterior disappears. There are two bulbs at the top of
the opening, which illuminate the log set exterior, and four
bulbs under the log set which generate the flames and
embers.
Tool Requirements: Philips head Screwdriver
!
NOTE: Before replacing lamps unnecessarily, ensure
that they are not simply loose or that the brightness control
is not adjusted to low setting (see item D in operation
section).
A. To open the light bulb area: (Figure 4)
1. Remove the trim by pulling straight forward.
2. Hold the glass in place while removing the retaining
clip from the upper center of the firebox.
3. Lift glass out and store in a safe place.
CAUTION: Even though the glass is safety glass it
may break if bumped, struck or dropped. Care must be
taken when handling the glass.
HELPFUL HINTS: It is a good idea to replace all light
bulbs at one time if they are close to the end of their
rated life. Group replacement will reduce the number of
times you need to open the unit to replace light bulbs.
B. To replace the bottom light bulbs: (Figure 5)
1. Lift up the front edge of the log until it clears the
front tabs. Pull out until the rear tab clears the back
ledge, and then lift out.
2. Examine the bulbs to determine which bulbs require
replacement.
3. Hold the socket while unscrewing the bulb
4. Hold the socket while screwing in the new bulb.
5. Replace the log by pushing it down and in until it
rests against the Partially Reflective Glass.
LOWER LIGHT BULB REQUIREMENTS: Quantity
of 4 clear chandelier or candelabra bulbs with an E-12
(small) socket base, 60 watt rating.
CAUTION: Do not exceed 60 watts per bulb.
C. To replace the top light bulbs: (Figure 6)
1. Locate the two upper bulbs inside the firebox at the
top.
