WARNING! Glass embers may have sharp edges, wear safety glasses and gloves when handling. Do not
change or substute the glass ember material provided with this appliance. If replacing, use only replacement
glass embers available from your local authorized dealer / distributor.
WARNING! To avoid the possibility of burns, maintenance should be done only when the pao ame

disconnect the pao ame before servicing. Clean the pao ame in an area where cleaning soluons will
not harm decks, lawns, or paos. Do not use ammable, corrosive or abrasive cleaners.
Note: Stainless steel tends to oxidize or stain in the presence of chlorides and suldes, parcularly in coastal
areas and other harsh environments, such as the warm, highly humid atmosphere around pools and hot tubs.
These stains could be perceived as rust, but can be easily removed or prevented. To provide stain prevenon
and removal, wash all stainless steel surfaces every 3-4 weeks or as oen as required with fresh water and/or
stainless steel cleaner.
Control Panel: The control panel text is printed directly on the stainless steel and with proper maintenance
will remain dark and legible. To clean the panel, use only warm soapy water or stainless steel cleaner available
from your Napoleon dealer. Never apply abrasive cleaners on any stainless surfaces, especially the printed poron
of the control panel or the prinng will gradually rub o.
Maintenance / Cleaning Instrucons
Burner: The burner is made from heavy wall 304 stainless steel, but extreme heat and a corrosive environment
can cause surface corrosion to occur. This can be removed with a brass wire brush. Inspect the burner at least
annually for cracks, insect nests, excessive corrosion or any other damage. If the burner is damaged, it must be
replaced with a burner specied by the manufacturer before the appliance is put into operaon.
CAUTION! Beware of Spiders.
Spiders and insects are aracted to the smell of propane and natural gas. The burner is equipped with an insect
screen on the air shuer, which reduces the likelihood of insects building nests inside the burner but does not
enrely eliminate the problem. A nest or web can cause the burner to burn with a so yellow or orange ame or
cause a re (ashback) at the air shuer underneath the control panel. Other warning signs that may indicate a
problem are:
• Strong or unusual odor coming from the pao ame.
• Connued diculty or delayed ignion.
• Flame appears either very short or very long.
• Flame only burns part way across the burner.
• Excessive soot building up on the glass embers.
To clean the inside of the burner, it must be removed from the pao ame: Remove the glass embers and
examine the burner. If dirty, clean with a wire brush. Remove the screws that aach the glass ember tray and
the nuts from the boom of the burner. Slide the burner back and up wards to remove.
Cleaning: Use a exible venturi tube brush to clean the inside of the burner. Shake any loose debris from the
burner through the gas inlet. Check the burner ports and valve orices for blockages. Burner ports can close
over me due to debris and corrosion, use an opened paperclip or a drill bit to clean them The ports are easier
to clean if the burner is removed from the pao ame, but it can also be done with the burner installed.
WARNING! Hose: Check for abrasions, melng, cuts, and cracks in the hose. If any of these condions
exist, do not use the pao ame. Have the part replaced by your Napoleon dealer or qualied gas installer.
Cleaning Inside The Pao Flame: While washing your pao ame, be sure to keep the area around the burner
and pilot assembly dry at all mes.
WARNING! If the gas control is exposed to water in any way, DO NOT try to use the pao ame. The
gas control must be replaced.

Cleaning The Outer Pao Flame Surface: Do not use abrasive cleaners or steel wool on any painted, or stain
less
steel parts of your Napoleon Pao Flame. Doing so will scratch the nish. Exterior heater surfaces should be
cleaned with warm soapy water. To clean stainless surfaces, use a stainless steel or a non-abrasive cleaner.
Always wipe in the direcon of the grain. Over me, stainless steel parts discolor when heated, usually to a
golden or brown hue. This discoloraon is normal and does not aect the performance of the pao ame.
WARNING! The pao ame area must be clear and free from combusble materials, gasoline and
other ammable vapors and liquids. Do not obstruct the ow of combuson and venlaon air. Keep the
venlaon opening of the cylinder enclosure free and clear of debris.
Reinstallaon: Reverse the procedure to reinstall the burner. Check that the valve enters the burner when
installing. Replace the glass embers. When the appliance is put back in service, check the burner ame paern
with the image below.

For propane - improper lighng
procedure.
For natural gas - undersized supply
line.
Ensure lighng procedure is followed carefully.
The valve must be in the o posion when the
tank valve is turned on. Turn tank on slowly to
allow pressure to equalize. See lighng
instrucons.
Pipe must be sized according to installaon code.
Burners burn with yellow
ame, accompanied by the
smell of gas.
Possible spider web or other debris. Thoroughly clean burner venturi. See general
maintenance instrucons.
Burner will not light with the
igniter, but will light with a
match.
Dead baery / or installed incor-
rectly.
Loose electrode wire or switch
terminal wires.
Improper gap at electrode p.
Replace with heavy duty baery.
Check that electrode wire is rmly pushed onto
the terminal on the back of the igniter. Check
that the lead wires from the module to the
ignion switch (if equipped) are rmly pushed
onto their respecve terminals.
The gap can be adjusted by bending the p in or
out. Unl a spark is achieved.
Burner will not stay lit when
control knob is released.
Knob not being held in long enough.
Too windy.
Glass or debris in ignion area of
the burner prevenng
thermocouple from being fully
engulfed in ame.

or use when it is less windy.
Ensure there is no glass or other debris in ignion
area, and that the small hole below the thermo-
couple is unobstructed.
Clean the thermocouple and clean the connecon
between the valve and thermocouple. Ensure the
connecon is properly ghtened.
Replace thermocouple and / or valve.
Humming regulator. Normal occurrence on hot days. This is not a defect. It is caused by internal
vibraons in the regulator and does not aect the
performance or safety of the gas heater.
Humming regulators will not be replaced.
Burner output on “high”
seng is too low. (Rumbling
noise and uering blue
ame at burner surface.)
Lack of gas.
