8.0 maintenance8.1 oxygen depletion sensor pilot cleaning 24.3! WARNING• Turn off the gas and electrical power before servicing the appliance.• Appliance may be hot. Do not service until appliance has cooled.• Do not use abrasive cleaners on glass.• Do not paint the pilot assembly.This appliance and its venting system should be inspected before use and at least annually by a qualifiedservice person. The following suggested checks should be performed by a qualified technician. The appliancearea must be kept clear and free of combustible materials, gasoline, or other flammable vapors and liquids.The fl ow of combustion and ventilation air must not be obstructed.1. In order to properly clean the burner and pilot assembly, remove the logs, rocks and/or glass to ex-pose both assemblies.2. Keep the control compartment, media, burner, air shutter opening and the area surrounding the appli-ance clean by vacuuming or brushing, at least once a year.3. Check to see that all burner ports are burning. Clean out any of the ports which may not be burningor are not burning properly.4. Check to see that the pilot flame is large enough to engulf the flame sensor and/or thermocouple /thermopile as well as it reaches the burner.5. If your appliance is equipped with a safety barrier, cleaning may be necessary due to excessive lint /dust from carpeting, pets, etc. simply vacuum using the brush attachment.6. If your appliance is equipped with relief doors, ensure the system performs effectively. Check that thegasket is not worn or damaged. Replace if necessary.7. Replace the cleaned logs, rocks or glass. Failure to properly position the media may cause carboningwhich can be distributed in the surrounding living area, inside the firebox and on exterior surfaces sur-rounding vent termination.8. Check to see that the main burner ignites completely on all ports when turned on. A 5 to 10 secondtotal light-up period is satisfactory. If ignition takes longer, consult your local authorized dealer / dis-tributor.9. Visually inspect the appliance for carbon build up. Using a small whisk or brush, brush off the carbonand vacuum up or sweep into garbage.10. This step is not applicable for Vent Free appliances: Check to see that the appliance is vent-ing correctly. Ensure chimney system is safe and unobstructed. (If for any reason the vent air intakesystem is disassembled, re-install and re-seal per the instructions provided for the initial installation).Caution: Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls. Wiring errors can cause improper anddangerous operation. Verify proper operation after servicing.note:This procedure must be performed by a qualifiedservice person!Inspect the pilot for any visible contamination ordebris (usually lint, pet hair, spider webs, carpetfibre, etc.) and remove.Disconnect the pilot from the pilot tubing line,using the appropriate wrench. Blow out thehousing in the same direction as the gas flow.Re-install the pilot tube, turn on the gas andcheck for leaks.If this does not improve the performance, replacethe ODS with an exact replacement. The device istamper resistant with no field serviceable parts.CORRECT PILOT FLAMEFlame contacts thermocouplecorrectly (clean, stable andpronounced blue flame).INCORRECT PILOT FLAMEFlame lifts off thermocouple(flame becomes unstable withmore of an orange tip).30.1ADD IMAGEHEREW415-0379 / F / 06.11.18EN26
