MAINTENANCE

INSTRUCTIONS
1) Always shut the valve off 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 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).
Regency uses StoveBright Paint - Metallic
Black #6309.
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 - do not
block the pilot or burner ports.
5) Keep the area near the appliance clear and
free from combustible materials, gasoline
and other fl ammable
vapours and liquids.

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
must be as shown in the diagram under Log
Installation.
Note: Improper positioning of logs may cre-
ate carbon build-up and will alter
the unit's performance which is not
covered under warranty.
DOOR AND
GLASS GASKET
If the door gasket requires replacement use
7/8" diameter oval door gasket (Part # 650-920).
The glass requires 5/8" fl at glass gasket. See
your Regency dealer.

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 will void the
warranty. Clean any fi ngerprints off before
turning the unit on.
MAINTENANCE
GLASS
REPLACEMENT
Your Regency heater is supplied with high
temperature, 5mm Neoceram silica coated
ceramic glass that will withstand the highest
heat that your unit will produce. In the event
that you break your glass, purchase your re-
placement from an authorized Regency dealer
only, and follow the step-by-step instructions
for replacement.
Removing Glass:
Note: Wearing gloves will protect your
hands while handling glass.
1) Remove the door from the unit and place
on a soft surface to prevent scratching.
2) Pull out the door gasket.
3) Remove the 24 nuts holding the glass
retainers in place. Do not remove the nuts
underneath the retainers.
4) Remove the door catch plate.
5) Remove glass retainers on sides fi rst (3 each
side) then remove two center retainers.
Note: Center glass retainers are glued to
