Keep the control compartment, logs and burner area
surrounding the logs clean by vacuuming or brushing
at least twice a year. THE LOGS CAN GET VERY HOT
- HANDLE ONLY WHEN COOL.
Always turn off gas to the pilot before cleaning. For re-
lighting, refer to lighting instructions located on the front
cover plate.
Never obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation
air. Keep the front of the appliance clear of all obstacles
and materials.
Leave at least 36" clearance from front of appliance to
combustibles.

Cleaning Glass Doors

Only glass approved for use in the Vermont Castings,
Majestic Products Company products may be used for
replacement.
1. The use of substitute glass will void all product war-
ranties.
f i r e - p a r t s . c o m
2. Care must be taken to avoid breakage of the glass.
3. Under no circumstances should this appliance
be operated with a broken glass front.
Replacement of the glass as supplied by
the manufacturer should be done by a
licensed qualified service person.
It will be necessary to clean the glass periodically. Dur-
ing start-up, condensation (which is normal) forms on
the inside of the glass and causes lint, dust and other
airborne particles to cling to the glass surface. Also
initial paint curing may deposit a slight film on the glass.
It is therefore recommended that the glass be cleaned
two or three times with a non-ammonia household
cleaner and warm water (we recommend fireplace glass
cleaner). After that the glass should be cleaned two or
three times during each heating season depending on
the circumstances present.
Clean glass after first two weeks of opera-
tion.

Maintenance

Inspecting the Venting System

The appliance venting system was designed and con-
structed to develop a positive flow adequate to remove
flue gasses to the outside atmosphere.
Any foreign objects in the venting system, except those
designed specifically for the venting system, may cause
spillage of flue gasses (i.e.: carbon monoxide) into the
room.
To inspect the venting system, make sure the main gas
valve is off. Remove the glass panel. Using a flashlight,
check the combustion dome. Clean if necessary.
The burner and control system consists of:
main burner
gas orifice
pilot burner
thermopile
combination millivolt gas valve
Most of these components may require only an occa-
sional checkup and cleaning and some may require ad-
justment. If repair is necessary, it should be performed
by a qualified technician.
In order to properly clean the burner and pilot assembly
turn off the gas to the unit, open glass door (if used),
remove logs exposing the burner and pilot assembly.
Clean all foreign materials from the top of the burner.
Check to make sure that burner parts are clean. Visu-
ally inspect pilot. Brush or blow away any dust or lint
accumulation. If pilot orifice is plugged, disassembly
may be required to remove any foreign material from
the orifice or tubing.
To obtain proper operation, it is imperative the pilot and
burner's flame characteristics are steady, not lifting or
floating.
