MAINTENANCE

WARNING
Disconnect all power coming to fireplace
at main service panel before attempting
any maintenance or cleaning to reduce risk
of fire, electric shock or damage to
persons
Light Bulb Replacement:
Light bulbs need to be replaced when you notice a dark section of the
flame. There are two bulbs which generate the flames and embers.
Tool Requirements: Slot Screw Driver
Bulb Requirements: Quantity of 2 clear chandelier or candelabra
bulbs with an E-12 (small) socket base, 60 watt rating. Example: GE
NOTE
60BC or Philips 60CTC.
Allow at least 5 minutes for light bulbs to
cool off before touching bulbs to avoid
CAUTION
accidental burning of skin.
Do not exceed 60 watts per bulb.
When handling log only apply force to the
ember bed section not directly to the logs.
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. Long life
bulbs are recommended to reduce the frequency of bulb changes.
