MAINTENANCE
WARNING
Disconnect power before attempting any maintenance or cleaning to reduce the risk of fire,
electric shock or damage to persons.
LIGHT BULB REPLACEMENT
Allow at least 5 minutes for light bulbs to cool off before touching bulbs to avoid accidental
burning of skin.

and detail of the log exterior disappears. There are three bulbs under the log set which
generate the flames and embers.

life. Group replacement will reduce the number of times you need to open the unit to replace
light bulbs.

rating.

the logset from the unit.
