Maintenance Checklist
The following should only be performed by a qualified service
technician.
1. Annual inspection should be made and the following checks per-
formed:
o When unit is cool, remove glass and inspect burner for dirt, soot and
lint accumulations and remove if necessary. Before cleaning the burner,
remove and clean the media following the instructions on Page 24.
If excessive soot accumulation is present on burner, have a qualified
service technician adjust the burner for proper combustion.
o Clean inside of glass with gas fireplace glass cleaner. NEVER attempt
to remove or clean the glass when the unit is hot.
o Check the hot air outlet vents for lint or other accumulations. Never
block or restrict vent openings, obstruct flow of ventilation air, or use
vents other than those approved for use with this appliance.
o Check that the chimney and its outlet are open and free of soot, block-
age, or debris.
o Check gaskets once a year. Gaskets must be tight. Replace if necessary.
o Inspect the pilot system for proper flame. Turn the pilot ON/Auto switch
to the ON position. Ensure the igniter lights the pilot. The pilot flame
should engulf the flame sensor as shown in Figure 28. See Intermit-
tent/Standing Pilot Mode on Page 18 for instructions on switching
from intermittent ignition to a standing pilot.
o Check that the area around the insert is kept clear and is free of
combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors and
liquids.
2. The viewing glass should be cleaned periodically (see Glass Main-
tenance).
