IMPORTANT: The glass must be allowed to warm slowly and evenly. The tempered glass will withstand a gradual temperature rise to 550 degrees Fahrenheit, which is more than a normal fire will generate. Such materials as pitch/wax laden logs, very dry mill end lumber, and large amounts of paper or cardboard boxes can create an excessively hot fire and should not be burned in this fireplace. Always keep the fire well back from the doors and never allow flames to contact the glass.
WARNING: Fireplaces equipped with glass doors should be operated only with doors fully opened or doors fully closed. Doors, if left partly open, may draw gas and flame out of the fireplace opening creating risks of both fire and smoke.
CLEANING THE GLASS
Clean the glass with any commercial glass cleaner or soap and water. Do not use any abrasive material to clean the glass. Do not clean the glass with any cool water if the glass is still hot from the fire and smoke.

STEP 2: Remove gas line cover plate on either side of fireplace (see figure 22) and pull out insulation (if any) from gas line conduit sleeve. Save insulation for reuse.
STEP 3: Run a ½ inch black iron gas line into the fireplace through the rear at gas line conduit sleeve (if using a raised platform, add height). Provide sufficient gas line into fireplace chamber for fitting connection (see figure 24).
