WARNING: Do not use
abrasive cleaners as this may
damage glass. Use a nonabra-
sive household glass cleaner to
clean glass. Do not clean glass
when hot.
Glass must be cleaned periodically. During
start-up it is normal for condensation to form
on the inside of the glass causing lint, dust and
other airborne particles to cling to the glass
surface. During initial start-up a slight film may
form on the glass due to paint curing. The
glass should be cleaned several times with a
non-ammonia, nonabrasive household clean-
er and warm water after the first two weeks
of operation. Thereafter, clean the glass two
or three times during each heating season,
depending on the usage and circumstances
present. Refer to Removing/Replacing Glass
Door, page 17 of this manual when removing
glass door for cleaning.
WARNING: Only parts sup-
plied by the manufacturer
should be used when replacing
broken or damaged glass door
panels (see Replacement Parts,
page 24). Glass door panel are
complete units. No substitute
materials may be used.
CAUTION: Wear gloves and
safety glasses while handling
or removing broken glass. Do
not remove if glass is hot. Keep
children and pets away from
glass.
If glass has been broken, carefully remove
glass door (see Removing/Replacing Glass
Doors, page 17). Vacuum all glass pieces
with a shop vac.
CAUTION: Do not vacuum if
pieces are hot.
Use only glass door replacement intended for
this fireplace (see Replacement Parts, page
24 for detail on ordering). No substitutions
may be made. See Removing/Replacing
Glass Doors, page 17 for instructions for
