Maintenance

Light Bulb Replacement
Allow at least five (5) minutes for
light bulbs to cool before touching
bulbs to avoid accidental burning
of skin.
Light bulbs need to be replaced
when you notice a dark section
of the flame or when the clarity
and detail of the log ember bed
exterior disappears. There are
two (2) bulbs under the log set,
which generate the flames and
embers.
Light Bulb Requirements
Quantity of two (2) clear
chandelier or candelabra bulbs
with an E-12 (small) socket base,
60 Watt rating. Example: GE
60BC or Philips 60 CTC.
Do not exceed 60 Watts per
bulb.

Helpful Hints
It is a good idea to replace both
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. Care must be taken when
removing the log set.

Bulb Area: (Figure 6)
1. remove front glass assembly.
2. Pull the back edge of the

log set by the ember bed.

necessary to remove.
