Maintenance
This appliance and venting system should be inspected
before use and at least annually by a qualified service
technician
General cleaning
• Vacuum the controls area under the firebox at least
monthly or more frequently if pet hair is in the envi-
ronment.
• Gasket inspection: Inspect the glass gasket annually.
Examine the gasket for signs of deterioration or stiff-
ness and confirm that the gasket maintains a posi-
tive seal. This is important to prevent combustion
gases escaping into the room. Replace the gasket
if necessary. Refer to the replacement parts list on
page 31.
Firebox Components
Periodically inspect the Firebox, Valve Compartment,
Convection Airways and optional Blower to BE CERTAIN
THAT THE FLOW OF COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION AIR
IS UNOBSTRUCTED.
• The firebox should be vacuumed annually to remove
any surface build up. Use a soft brush attachment
and handle the logs carefully as they are fragile.
• Inspect the pilot head, thermopile and thermocouple
for signs of rust or deterioration and replace any
components that do. Check that the pilot head is
properly engaged with the throat and is oriented
correctly. See fig. 46, page 26.
• Inspect the burner and confirm that all the ports are
unobstructed, particularly at the pilot area. Vacuum
the burner plate if necessary.
Accent Lamp Replacement
1. Remove the cast iron Upper Grill
2. Remove the lamp shade and bulb receptacle (three
screws). See fig. 54, pg. 31. Replace with 222943 130V,
50W light bulb.
3. Handle the new bulb with gloves. Skin oils will cause
the bulb to fail prematurely. If you touch the bulb
with your bare skin, wipe it clean with a soft cloth.
4, Replace components previously removed.

Battery Replacement
• DISCONNECT THE FIREPLACE FROM POWER.
• Loosen the battery box wing nut and pull the box out
of the insert. Replace with four AA batteries noting
polarity indicated on the holder.
Glass Care
Moisture condensation is a normal occurrence with gas
appliances and particulate accumulation may appear
on the inside surface to the glass. Use a dampened, soft
cloth to clean the glass and polish with a dry, soft towel.
Specially-formulated ceramic glass cleaner may also
be used. DO NOT USE ABRASIVE OR AMMONIA BASED
CLEANING SOLUTIONS. TAKE CARE NOT TO SCRATCH THE
GLASS SURFACE.
NOTE: INSPECT THE GLASS SURFACE FOR SCRATCHES
AS THESE CAN WEAKEN THE PANEL TENSILE
STRENGTH. REPLACE THE PANEL IF ANY SCRATCHES
ARE FOUND. USE ONLY JOTUL PN 129124. DO NOT
USE ANY OTHER TYPE OF GLASS. REPLACEMENT
OF THE GLASS SHOULD ONLY BE PERFORMED BY A
LICENSED OR QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSON.
WARNING:
OBSERVE CAUTION NEAR THE GLASS. THE GLASS
PANEL MAY SHATTER IF STRUCK WITH AN OBJECT.
ALWAYS HANDLE THE GLASS PANEL WITH CARE.
