General
Have the replace and installation inspected yearly.
The inspection must include, but is not limited to, the
following:
• A visual check of the entire vent system and termination.
• An inspection of the explosion relief appers and the door gaskets
to ensure a proper seal.
• An inspection of the burner, vent run, and primary air openings.
• An inspection of the gas valve, gas components, and pilot ame.
For your convenience a 1/8" manifold pressure tap is supplied
on the gas valve for a test gauge connection.
• Ensure proper log placement as per this manual.
• Inspection of all optional equipment; fans, thermostats, etc.
■ For Natural Gas this appliance requires a minimum inlet pressure
of 5.5" W.C. and a manifold pressure of 3.5" W.C.
■ For Propane Gas this appliance requires a minimum inlet pressure
of 11" W.C. and a manifold pressure of 10" W.C.
■ Always keep the replace area clear and free of combustible
materials, as well as gasoline and other ammable vapors and
liquids.
■ Do not use this appliance if any part has been under water.
Immediately call a qualied service technician to inspect the
appliance and to replace any part of the control system and any
gas control which has been under water.
When the replace is rst activated, there may be some smoke and a
visible lm may be left on the glass. This is a normal condition, and is
the result of burning of protective coatings on new metal.
■ Glass must be cleaned periodically to remove any lm (which is
a normal by-product of combustion) which may be visible. Film
can easily be removed by removing the door, as shown on Page
19. Handle the door carefully, and clean it with non-abrasive glass
cleaners. One of the most effective products is Kel Kem.
■ Silicone seals on inner door during initial ring will "off gas", leaving
a visual deposit of a white substance on combustion chamber
walls. This can easily be removed using normal household
products.
■ Use a vacuum cleaner or whisk broom to keep the control
compartment, burner, and rebox free from dust and lint.
■ Logs may be cleaned periodically with a vacuum to remove soot
or other contaminates.
The L42DF* is equipped with an adjustable burner, allowing you to raise
or lower the ames. To adjust the ames, locate the black knob marked
'Hi-Lo', in the centre of the gas control valve (See Figure 32).
■ To raise the ame height, turn the black knob (located behind
the lower trim) counter-clockwise.
■ To lower the ame height, turn clockwise.

Bubbles indicate leaks. Tighten any areas where the bubbles appear
until the bubbling stops completely.
