Maintenance
WARNING: Disconnect power before attempting any
maintenance or cleaning to reduce the risk of re, electric
shock or damage to persons.
Light Bulb Replacement
Allow at least ve (5) minutes for the light bulbs to cool
before touching them to avoid accidental burning of the skin.
The light bulbs need to be replaced when you notice a dark
section of the ame or when the clarity and detail of the
log ember bed exterior reduces. There are three (3) bulbs
under the Log Set Assembly, which generate the ames
and embers, and two (2) bulbs above that illuminate the log
exterior.
Lower Light Bulb Requirements: Quantity of three (3) clear
chandelier or candelabra bulbs with an E-12 (small) socket
base, 60 Watt rating. Example: GE 60BC or Philips 60CTC.
Do not exceed 60 Watts per bulb.
Helpful Hints: It is a good idea to replace all light bulbs at
one time if they are close to the end of their rated life. Group
replacement will reduce the number of times you need to
open the unit to replace light bulbs. Care must be taken
when removing the Log set assembly as it contains LED’s
and wires (DF2608 only).
