CLEANING

NEVER CLEAN THE GLASS WHEN THE DOORS ARE HOT. DO NOT USE AMMONIA OR ANY AMMONIA BASED GLASS OR HOUSEHOLD CLEANER TO CLEAN THE GLASS OR THE DOOR FRAME. AN AMMONIA BASED CLEANER WILL DAMAGE THE FINISH.

Remove dirt and grime from the doors using a clean dampened towel followed by wiping with a dry towel. To remove stubborn stains from the doors, use a mild soap solution and towel to gently scrub away stain. Take care not to scratch the glass surface. Do not use abrasive cleaners.

CAUTION: THE CST-38 AND CPF-38 FIRE-

PLACES MUST BE OPERATED WITH THE GLASS DOORS FULLY CLOSED.

IMPORTANT

These glass doors utilize tempered glass which is designed for use with high tempera- tures but can unexpectedly shatter. DO NOT SIT CLOSE TO THE GLASS.

Tempered glass will break into small particles if it should shatter unexpectedly. If the glass breaks, particles of extremely hot glass could be discharged into the surrounding environ- ment, thereby creating a risk of personal injury or fire. Observation of the above operating precautions and instructions will reduce the risk of personal injury or fire.

Extreme temperature changes can cause break- age — do not build a hot fire and close the doors if the doors are cold.

If the tempered glass pane becomes scratched or chipped, it creates a weakness in the glass which can cause the glass to break when heated. Replace the pane of glass by contacting your nearest LHP Distributor. For the name of your nearest distributor contact:
