REMINGTON QFP40 Direct Vent FIREPLACE

GLASS REPLACEMENT

Replace glass with part #842-3820 ONLY, available from your dealer.

1.Turn valve to “OFF” position to prevent start-up of unit while door is removed.

2.Prepare a flat area to lay the door on by covering the surface with cardboard, disposable tarp or paper large enough to contain the entire door.

3.Wear leather gloves, long sleeves and safety glasses to protect against injury from any broken glass.

4.Ensure that unit has completely cooled. Remove fascia, then door.

5.Lay door on prepared surface with the front facing down.

6.Use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the 16 screws holding the four retaining strips in place and set aside.

7.Carefully remove the retaining strips and set aside.

8.Carefully remove broken/defective glass and dispose of pieces. Dust any par- ticles of glass off the door frame and dispose of the covering it was laid on. Any particles of broken glass could scratch the replacement piece if contact is made during the replacement. Scratches in the glass may cause breakage.

9.Place a clean covering on your work surface.

10.Position the door frame face down upon the clean surface and place the new glass on the frame with the thin side of gasketing down, facing the front.

11.Reinstall the retainer strips using the screws removed earlier. Take care not to over tighten the screws.

12.Replace the glass with the narrow edging of frame on the top, but do not latch until Lighting Instructions (page 55) have been completed.

13.Replace fascia.
