Cleaning And Maintenance

Glass Care: This appliance has a large cover door bolted to the front area of the firebox. This cover door must be in place at all times when the appliance is in operation. For the most visual perform- ance with your appliance it is good to maintain a clean glass on the cover door. To clean the glass first make sure the glass is cool (not hot), trying to clean the glass when it is hot can cause personal injury, or damage your cleaning device and the glass. With the glass at room temperature and the door attached to the appliance, spray the glass are with household glass cleaner and wipe clean with a lint-free towel. If the inside of the glass needs cleaning follow the directions on page 4 for remov- ing the cover door, and then clean as you did the front side of the glass.

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, non- abrasive household cleaner 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.

“WARNING: Do not abuse the glass cover door such as striking or slamming shut. The glass can break and cause personal injury.”

Any safety screen or guard removed for servicing an appliance must be replaced prior to oper- ating the appliance.

CAUTION: If the glass in your appliance becomes broken or cracked, remove the glass with caution. Wear safety glasses, gloves, shoes and other protective clothing as needed. See your dealer or the manufacturer for replacement glass.
