Maintenance - Dimplex DF203A Service Manual

MAINTENANCE

WARNINg: Disconnect power before attempting any
maintenance or cleaning to reduce the risk of fire, electric
shock or damage to persons.
Light Bulb Replacement
Allow at least 5 minutes for light bulbs to cool off before
touching bulbs to avoid accidental burning of skin.
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 (2) bulbs under the log
set which generate the flames and embers.
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.
Bulb Requirements
Quantity of 2 clear chandelier or candelabra bulbs with
an J-12 (small) socket base, 60 watt rating. Example GE
60BC or Philips 60 CTC.

glass Cleaning
The glass is cleaned in the factory during the assembly
operation. During shipment, installation, handling, etc., the
front glass panel may collect dust particles; these can be
removed by dusting lightly with a clean dry cloth.
To remove fingerprints or other marks, the front glass panel
can be cleaned with a damp cloth. The front glass panel
should be completely dried with a lint free cloth to prevent
water spots. To prevent scratching, do not use abrasive
cleaners or spray liquids on the clear door surface.
Compact Fireplace Surface Cleaning
Use warm water only to clean painted surfaces of the
Compact Fireplace. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
Servicing
Except for light bulb replacement and cleaning described
above, an authorized service representative should perform
any other servicing.
