Light Bulb Replacement

Allow at least five (5) minutes for the light bulbs to cool
before touching them to avoid accidental burning of the
skin. The light bulbs need to be replaced when you notice
a dark section of the flame or when the clarity and detail
of the log ember bed exterior reduces. There are three
(3) bulbs under the Log Set Assembly, which generate the
flames and embers, and two (2) bulbs above that illuminate
the log exterior.
It is a good idea to replace all of the 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 the light bulbs.
