A qualified service agency should conduct an annual inspection and maintenance of your
includ-
ing the overall installation and venting to keep it running safely. The following procedures should be per-
formed only by a qualified service person. The gas supply should be turned off and the stove should be
completely cool whenever a maintenance procedure is performed. All parts of the appliance that are removed for
servicing must be replaced prior to operation.
WARNING: Do not operate the appliance with the glass front removed, cracked or broken.
Replacement of the glass should be done by a qualified service person.
WARNING: Use only glass assembly, P/N 46-510 which includes the glass panel, frame and gasket.
Do not use substitute materials. Do not strike or slam the glass front. The appliance area must be
kept clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors and liquids.
CAUTION: DO NOT OPERATE WITH BROKEN GLASS
REPLACING THE GLASS
The glass mounting system consists of the glass panel, special glass gasket and the metal glass frame.
Should the glass need to be replaced, you must replace the entire glass/glass frame assembly (PN 46-510).
See page 46 for information on obtaining replacement parts. Use the following procedure and refer to the
illustrations on page 29 of this manual.
1. Turn the fireplace completely off and allow it to cool to room temperature.
2. Remove the fireplace surround. See instructions on page 31.
3. If the glass is broken, be sure to wear gloves and eye protection.
4. Remove the glass frame fasteners from the top edge of the glass frame.
5. This will allow the glass frame to tip slightly forward. The glass may be loose in the frame, so it is very
important to support both the glass and the frame when handling. Place your thumbs on the outside of
the glass frame and wrap your fingers around the frame and onto the glass. Squeeze the frame and glass
while moving. Carefully lift the glass frame and glass up and off the fireplace. Set the glass and frame
aside on a padded surface. If the glass is broken, do this over spread out newspaper to catch all loose
material. Wrap the old glass frame, glass and gasket in several layers of newspaper and discard.
Installing the replacement glass/glass frame assembly.
1. Unpack the new glass/glass frame assembly taking care when handling.
2. Carefully pick up the glass and glass frame assembly by grasping the sides of the frame and using your
thumbs and fingers to hold the glass in place within the gasket and frame.
3. With the glass frame (and glass) at a slight angle (leaving room for your fingers between the frame and
the firebox) insert the bottom edge of the frame into the frame retainer located on the bottom front of
the firebox. Take care to center the frame from left to right. Once the bottom edge is in place, move
your fingers out of the way and press the top of the frame against the firebox while pushing down to be
sure the frame is fully engaged in the frame retainer. Hold the frame in place with one hand and rein-
stall the glass frame fasteners, leaving them loose.
4. Tighten the glass frame fasteners in stages working from the center out. Continue the process until all
fasteners are uniformly tight. Do not over-tighten the fasteners.
5. Replace the fireplace surround. See instructions on page 31.
CLEANING THE GLASS
WARNING: Never clean the glass while it is hot. Do not use abrasive cleaners or cleaners containing
ammonia.
NOTE: A micro-fiber cleaning cloth and plain water is recommended by the glass manufacturer.
