Maintenance
CAUTIONS
Fireplace gas control must be in the "OFF" position and
pilot and main burners extinguished when cleaning
appliance with a vacuum.
Doors and logs can get very hot. Handle only when cool.
General
Have the fireplace installation inspected yearly, including a visual
check of the burner and the pilot flame. For your convenience a 1/8"
manifold pressure tap is supplied on the gas valve for a test gauge
connection. See Figure 11.
For Natural Gas this appliance requires a minimum inlet pressure of
5.5" W.C. and a manifold pressure of 3.5" W.C.
For Propane Gas this appliance requires a minimum inlet pressure
of 11" W.C. and a manifold pressure of 10" W.C.
Always keep the fireplace area clear and free of combustible
materials, as well as gasoline and other flammable vapours and
liquids.
Do not use this appliance if any part has been under water.
Immediately call a qualified service technician to inspect the appliance
and to replace any part of the control system and any gas control
which has been under water.
Cleaning
When the fireplace is first activated, there may be some smoking. This is
a normal condition, and is the result of burning of protective coatings on
new metal.
Silicone seals on inner door during initial firing will "off gas", leaving a
visual deposit of a white substance on combustion chamber walls.
This can easily be removed using normal household products.
Use a vacuum cleaner or whisk broom to keep the control
compartment, burner, and firebox free from dust and lint.
Logs may be cleaned periodically with a vacuum to remove soot or
other contaminates.
WARNING:
Do not attempt to clean the fireplace when hot.
Part No. XG0317
