Maintenance

  WARNING: Disconnect power
and heater has cooled before
attempting any maintenance or
cleaning to reduce the risk of
fire, electric shock or damage
to persons.
!
NOTE: The fireplace should
not be operated with an accumu-
lation of dust or dirt on or in the
unit, as this can cause a build up
of heat and eventual damage. For
this reason the heater must be
inspected regularly, depending
upon conditions and at least at
yearly intervals.
Light Bulb Replacement
Light bulbs need to be replaced
when you notice a dark section
of the flame or when the clar-
ity and detail of the log exterior
disappears. There are four bulbs
under the log set which generate
the flames and embers.
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 fre-
quency of bulb changes.
Light Bulb Requirements:
Quantity of 4 clear chandelier or
candelabra bulbs with an E-12
(small) socket base, 60 Watt rat-
ing. Example: GE 60BC or Phil-
ips 60CTC. DO NOT EXCEED 60
WATTS PER BULB.

CAUTION:

cidental burning of skin.
