GALAXY SUPREME FIREPLACES

Figure 8 – Glass Replacement
WARNINGS:

Abrasive cleaners must not be used because they will produce surface scratches, reducing glass transparency and
resistance to impacts.

Do not clean the glass when it is hot. The glass panels should be cleaned when the fireplace is cold and not functional.

If using a commercial glass cleaner, avoid the painted parts of the fireplace. Glass cleaners can wear off the paint of the
fireplace.
3.8 Glass Replacement
The glass door of your fireplace must be treated with care, do not slam the doors shut or build the fire too close to the glass.
Do not over fire the Galaxy. Excessive temperatures or impacts may lead to breakage.
The glass panel is a heat-resistant ceramic type, 5 mm thick. Do not replace the glass with an ordinary glass or a tempered
glass.
Replace immediately a cracked or broken glass. Do not use the fireplace with cracked or broken glass; doing so may result
in a fire hazard.
To replace a broken glass:
CAUTION: Always wear gloves and protective eyewear to avoid injuries.
1. Order a pre-cut replacement glass, a door gasket and a glass gasket from your dealer
(see NOTE).
2. To remove the door, open the door, lift it and pull it towards the bottom until the rod
exits from the hinge holes.
3. Remove the gasket #5 (see figure 8).
4. Remove the nuts, the glass retainer #4 and the glass gasket #2.
5. Remove the broken pieces. Clean the frame carefully to insure that it is free of small
fragments.
6. Insert the new glass #3 into the doorframe #1. Center the class with the frame.
7. Install the glass gasket and the glass retainer.
8. Fix the glass supports to the doorframe. Do not over tighten the nuts.
