WARNING: Turn off fireplace

and let cool before cleaning.

CAUTION: You must keep

control areas, burners and

circulating air passageways of

fireplace clean. Inspect these

areas of fireplace before each

use. Have fireplace inspected

yearly by a qualified service

person. Fireplace may need

more frequent cleaning due to

excessive lint from carpeting,

bedding material, pet hair, etc.

GLASS DOOR

WARNING: Handle glass

door panel 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

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 circum-

stances present. Refer to

Removing Glass

Door

, page 18 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 panel

(see

Replacement Parts

, page

34). This glass door panel is

a complete unit. 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 chil

dren and pets away from glass.

If glass has been broken, carefully remove

glass door (see

Removing Glass Door

, page

18). Vacuum all glass pieces with a shop vac.

CAUTION: Do not vacuum if

pieces are hot.

Use only the tempered glass door replace-

ment intended for this fireplace (see

Replace-

ment Parts

, page 34 for detail on ordering).

No substitutions may be made. See

Remov-

ing Glass Door

, page 18 for instructions for

replacing glass door.
