Operation
Lighting Instructions
See pages 19 and 20.
Burner Adjustment
The H42DF-O 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).
The front burners are not adjustable.
■ To raise the ame height, turn the black knob (located behind the
lower trim) counter-clockwise.
■ To lower the ame height, turn clockwise.

Cleaning
When the replace is rst activated, there may be some smoking 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
15. 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.
