a variable gas control valve. Flame height for
these models may be adjusted through a range
between fixed low and high settings, alternately,
while the appliance is in operation.
Adjust the flame height as desired after lighting
the appliance by rotating the variable adjustment
control knob located on the front of the valve
(refer to Figure 2).
2. When lit for the first time, this appliance will
emit a slight odor for an hour or two. This is due
to the “burn-in” of internal paints and lubricants
used in the manufacturing process.
3. Keep lower control compartment clean by
vacuuming or brushing at least twice a year.
More frequent cleaning may be required due to
excessive lint from carpeting, bedding materials,
etc. It is important that control compartments,
burners and circulating air passageways of the
appliance be kept clean and clear of obstruction
of venting and combustion air.
4. Always turn off gas to the pilot (millivolt
appliances) before cleaning. Before re-lighting,
refer to the lighting instructions in this manual.
Instructions are also found on a pull-out panel
located on the floor of the appliance.
5. Always keep the appliance area clear and
free from combustible materials, gasoline and
other flammable liquids.
6. Remember, Millivolt appliances have a continuous burning pilot flame. Exercise caution
when using products with combustible vapors.
Millivolt units are not provided with any
factory-installed controls; therefore, one of the
optional control switches is required to operate
the unit (ON/OFF Wall Switch, Unit-Mountable
ON/OFF Switch, Thermostat, Remote Control).
See “Accessories” in this manual for details.
Once the pilot is lighted, use the switch or remote control to turn the appliance ON and OFF.

MAINTENANCE
(See Maintenance Schedule, Page 25 )
Refer to the maintenance schedule for maintenance
tasks, procedures, periodicity and by whom they
should be performed. Always verify proper operation of the appliance after servicing.
WARNING
Turn off gas and electrical power
to the fireplace and allow it to
cool before cleaning or servicing
the appliance.
CAUTION: Wear gloves and safety glasses
for protection while doing required
maintenance.
Verify proper operation after servicing.
S'assurer que l'appareil fonctionne adéquatement une fois l'entretien terminé.
Always turn off gas to the pilot (millivolt
appliances) before cleaning. Before relighting, refer to the lighting instructions
in this manual. Instructions are also found
on a pull-out panel located in the control
compartment.
Inspect Venting System
The appliance and venting system should be
thoroughly inspected before initial use and
at least annually by a qualified service technician (inspection should include ensuring that
exhaust or intake passages are unobstructed
and vent components are properly assembled
and not damaged). Homeowner must contact
a qualified service technician at once if any
abnormal condition is observed.
If the venting system is disassembled for any
reason, a qualified service technician should
follow vent installation instructions for proper
reassembly and proper sealing of the venting
system components. However, more frequent
periodic inspections and cleanings should be
performed by the homeowner.
Cleaning Glass
(see Front Glass Enclosure Panel, Removal and
Installation on Page 11).
Note: Clean glass after first two weeks of opera-
tion (after Burn-In period is over) and then only
when necessary and when the fireplace is cool.
Wipe surface with a clean, dampened, soft cloth.
Follow with a dry, soft towel as desired. Take
care not to scratch the glass surface.
The viewing glass should be cleaned periodically to remove any build-up caused from the
following:
IMPORTANT: Do not use abrasive cleaners on glass. Never clean the glass when
it is hot.
• During start-up, it is normal for condensation to form on the inside of the glass (this
condensation and fog will usually disappear
in a few minutes). The moisture can cause
lint, dust and other airborne particles to cling
to the glass surface.
• Initial curing of the high temperature paint
and burning off of lubricants used in the
manufacturing process may result in a film
on the glass.
• A white coating may form on the glass as a
result of impurities and minerals in the fuel.
It is recommended that the glass be cleaned
two or three times during each heating season,
depending on the circumstances present. The
following cleaning solutions are approved for
use to clean glass:
• Non-ammonia based household cleaner
• 50%-50% mix of white vinegar and water
• Gas fireplace/stove glass cleaner
Inspect Glass Gasket - Visually inspect the
gasket on the backside of the glass enclosure
panels. The gasket surface must be clean, free
of irregularities and seated firmly.
Clean Control Compartment
Keep control compartment clean by vacuuming
or brushing at least twice a year. More frequent
cleaning may be required due to excessive lint
from carpeting, bedding materials, etc. It is
important that control compartments, burners
and circulating air passageways of the appliance
be kept clean.
Clean Logs And Burner
Carefully remove the logs (use care when handling the fiber logs, as they become quite fragile
after curing). Vacuum out any foreign matter
(lint, carbon, etc.) on the burner. Ensure the
burner ports are “open.” Remove any carbon
deposits from the under side of the logs using
a vacuum cleaner, or a soft bristled brush (i.e.
paint brush).
Note: Improper positioning of logs can create
carbon build-up and will alter the performance
of the appliance.
Replacing Logs
If the logs become damaged by accident or
improper handling and need replacement,
use only the proper replacement logs from
manufacturer (see Pages 13,14 and 15 for
ordering information).
Reinstall Embers and Logs
Carefully follow placement instructions on
Pages 12 through 15. All logs should fit
onto corresponding pins and/or log stoppers. This will ensure a proper flame and safe
combustion.
Inspect Wiring
Refer to wiring diagrams on Page 18.
CAUTION: Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls. Wiring
errors can cause improper and dangerous
operation. Verify proper operation after
servicing.
ATTENTION: Au moment de l'entretien
des commandes, étiquetez tous les fils
avant de les débrancher. Des erreurs
de cáblage peuvent entraîner un fonctionnement inadéquat et dangereux.
Inspect and clean all wire connections. Ensure
that there is no melting or damage. Inspection
should include:
• Terminals at the Valve
• OFF/ON Switch
• (Optional Control Switch) Wall Thermostat,
Remote Control or Remote Wall Switch Kit
Inspect Burner Flame Appearance
Ensure that the burner flame appearance
resembles the flame shown in Figures 10, 11
and 12 and as described in Flame Appearance
and Sooting on Page 16. The Homeowner must
contact a qualified service technician at once if
any abnormal condition is observed.
Small Area Paint Touch-up
Only use a factory supplied paint kit for touchups. Paint is available at your local authorized
Lennox Hearth Products dealer. Never attempt
to paint a hot fireplace.
Do not attempt to repaint the appliance until
the finish is completely cured (see Burn-In Period on Page 4). If the surface later becomes
stained or marred, it may be lightly sanded and
touched up with spray paint.
