THE TEMPERATURE CUTOUT SWITCH
The heater on this fireplace is protected with a safety device to prevent overheating.
Should the heater overheat, an automatic cut out will turn the heater off. The heater will re-
activate once the heater has cooled. The overheat cutout may be triggered if the filter is
dirty. Follow filter maintenance on page 8.
CAUTION
If the heater continuously resets, disconnect the power at the main service panel and call
your local dealer.

WARNING
Disconnect all power coming to fireplace at main service panel before attempting

LIGHT BULB REPLACEMENT
Allow at least 5 minutes for light bulbs to cool off 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 exterior disappears. There are four bulbs under the log set
which generate the flames and embers.
LIGHT BULB REQUIREMENTS
Quantity of 4 clear chandelier or candelabra bulbs with an E-14 socket base, 60 watt
rating.
DO NOT EXCEED 60 WATTS PER BULB.
CAUTION
When handling log only apply force to the ember bed section not directly to the logs.
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 frequency of bulb
changes.
