7.Cleaning the Door Glass

Frequency: As needed / Weekly

By: User

Whenever the view of the fire is obstructed, or weekly, clean the glass using a soft cloth dampened with stan- dard household glass cleaner.

Never spray glass cleaner directly onto hot glass. Apply the cleaner to the cloth then wipe the glass.

Inspect the glass and sealing gasket. Replace gasket as needed. Do not operate the stove with a broken glass. Replacement glass, which is ceramic glass, should be obtained through your Harman dealer.

To replace a broken glass; first be sure to carefully remove the broken glass and any remaining shards or pieces. With the door laying on a flat surface, lay the gasketted glass panel onto the door and be sure it is properly fitted into the channel. Lay the glass retainer clips in place near each corner, and secure them using the 3/8" screws. Be sure to tighten each screw equally so you don't create a pressure point on the glass.

NEVER OPERATE THIS APPLIANCE WITH THE GLASS DOOR REMOVED, CRACKED, BROKEN, OR SCRATCHED.

8.Venting and Chimney System

Frequency: Yearly or more frequently depending on ash build-up.

By: Service Technician / Chimney Sweep

Soot and Fly Ash: Formation & Need for Removal

The products of combustion will contain small particles of fly ash. The fly ash will collect in the exhaust venting system and restrict the flow of exhaust gases.

During periods of incomplete combustion, which may occur during start-up, shut down, or when operated incorrectly, the fly ash may actually lead to soot formation in the venting system.

The venting system will need to be cleaned at least once per year, or more often depending on the quality of the fuel being used. Horizontal sections of vent pipe are especially prone to soot formation, as ash will accumulate more quickly.

The chimney and venting system should be inspected periodically throughout the heating season to determine if a creosote buildup has occurred. If a significant layer of creosote has accumulated (3mm or more) it should be removed to reduce the risk of a chimney fire.
