If the vent configuration is installed incorrectly, the flames will lift or "ghost". This can be danger- ous. Inspect the flames after installation to ensure proper installation and performance.

Figure 56 shows a typical flame pattern.

If burner flame pattern differs from that described:

WARNING: Do not use abra- sivecleanersasthismaydamage glass. Use a nonabrasive house- hold 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, 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. Refer to Removing/Replacing Glass Door on page 24 of this manual when removing glass door for cleaning.

WARNING: Only parts supplied by the manufacturer should be used when replacing broken or damaged glass door panel (see Replacement Parts, page 36). This glass door panel is a complete unit. No substitute materials may be used.
