INSTRUCTIONS
1) Always turn off the valve before cleaning.
For relighting, refer to lighting instructions.
Keep the burner and control compartment
clean by brushing and vacuuming at least
once a year. When cleaning the logs, use a
soft clean paint brush as the logs are fragile
and easily damaged.
2) Clean glass (never when unit is hot), appli-
ance, louvres, and door with a damp cloth.
Never use an abrasive cleaner. The gold
louvres (and optional gold door) may be
scratched if abrasives are used to clean
them.
The heater is fi nished in a heat resistant
paint and should only be refi nished with
heat resistant paint (not with wall paint).

3) Make a periodic check of burner for proper
position and condition. Visually check the
fl ame of the burner periodically, making sure
the fl ames are steady; not lifting or fl oating. If
there is a problem, call an authorized service
person.
4) The appliance and fl ueing system must be
inspected before use, and at least annu-
ally, by an authorized fi eld service person,
to ensure that the fl ow of combustion and
ventilation air is not obstructed.
During the annual service call, the burners
should be removed from the burner tray
and cleaned. Replace the embers but do
not block the pilot.
5) Keep the area near the appliance clear and
free from combustible materials, gasoline,
and other fl ammable vapours and liquids.

across the rear of the burner (it does not
have to be touching the burner).
Note: If you have an incorrect fl ame pat-
tern, contact your Regency

GENERAL
FLUE MAINTENANCE
Conduct an inspection of the fl ueing system
semi-annually. Recommended areas to inspect
as follows:
1) Check the Flueing System for corrosion in
areas that are exposed to the elements.
These will appear as rust spots or streaks,
and in extreme cases, holes. These com-
ponents should be replaced immediately.
2) Check for evidences of excessive condensa-
tion, such as water droplets forming in the
inner liner, and subsequently dripping out the
joints, Continuous condensation can cause
corrosion of caps, pipe, and fi ttings. It may
be caused by having exterior portions of the
This
system being exposed to cold weather.
3) Inspect joints, to verify that no pipe sec-
tions or fi ttings have been disturbed, and
consequently loosened.
LOG REPLACEMENT
The unit should never be used with broken logs.
Turn off the gas valve and allow the unit to cool
before opening door to carefully remove the
logs. The pilot light generates enough heat to
burn someone. If for any reason a log should
need replacement, you must use the proper
replacement log. The position of these logs
®
dealer
must be as shown in the diagram under Log
Installation.
Note: Improper positioning of logs may
create carbon build-up and will alter
the unit's performance which is not
covered under warranty.
GOLD-PLATED DOORS
The 24 carat gold plated fi nish on the door
requires little maintenance, and need only be
cleaned with a damp cloth. DO NOT use abrasive
materials or chemical cleaners, as they may
harm the fi nish and void the warranty. Clean any
fi ngerprints off before turning the unit on. If the
door starts to discolour, check the gasket
seal and replace if necessary.
DOOR GASKET
If the door gasket requires replacement use
7/8" diameter oval door gasket (Part # 650-
920).
