GLASS DOORS

WARNING: Handle glass door panels with care. Do not strike, slam or otherwise abuse glass. Do not operate fireplace with the glass door unlatched, removed, cracked or broken.

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 replacing glass doors.
