Electrical Connection
Grounding Means
A 15 Amp, 120 Volt, 60 Hz circuit with a properly
grounded outlet is required. Preferably, the appliance
will be on a dedicated circuit as other appliances on
the same circuit may cause the circuit breaker to trip
or the fuse to blow when the heater is in operation.
Fig. 1 Grounding methods.
The unit comes standard with a 6’ (1.8m) long three
wire cord, exiting from the rear of the stove. Plan the
installation to avoid the use of an extension cord. If an
extension cord must be used, it must be a minimum
14AWG, three wire with grounding type plug connector
and rated not less than 1875 Watts. The cord shall not
be more than 20’ (6m) in length.
WARNING: Electrical outlet wiring must
comply with local building codes and
other applicable regulations to reduce the
risk of fire, electrical shock and injury to
persons.
WARNING: Do not use this stove if any
part of it has been under water.
Immediately call a qualified service tech-
nician to inspect the stove and replace
any part of the electrical system.

Service Instructions
WARNING: Disconnect power before
Replacing Light Bulbs
attempting any maintenance or cleaning
to reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock
or personal injury.
This stove uses two clear 120 Volt, 40 Watt, E-12
socket base light bulbs (small base, chandelier candle
type). The 40 Watt bulbs are located under the log
set/ember bed. For convenience, if one of the bulbs
burns out, it may be a good idea to replace both of the
light bulbs.
Maintenance of Motors
The motors used on the fan and the flame generator
assembly are prelubricated for extended bearing life
and require no further lubrication. However, periodic
cleaning/vacuuming of the fan/heater unit is recom-
mended.
1. Turn off power to the unit by unplugging the power
cord.
2. Let stove cool if it has been operating.
WARNING: Make sure the power is turned
off before proceeding.
3. Remove the access plate on the back of the stove
by removing the screws. You should have a clear
view of the light bulbs. Put your hand over the silver
flame generator to remove or replace the light
bulb(s).
CAUTION: Be careful not to touch or bend the flame
generator.
4. Examine the bulbs to determine which bulb needs
to be replaced.
5. Unscrew defective bulb(s).
6. Install new 40 Watt light bulb(s).
7. Replace access plate. Plug power cord into wall
outlet.
WARNING: Do not exceed 40 watts per
bulb. Use of higher rated bulbs may result
in a fire, causing property damage or per-
sonal injury.
