Cleaning the Window
Important - Glass cleaning - Mineral deposits
One of the by-products of the combustion process in
a gas appliance is a mineral which can show up as a
white
fi
lm on the ceramic glass of the viewing door.
The composition of the deposit varies widely with
location and time. It is believed to be associated with
the varying sulfur content of the gas. You may have the
problem intermittently.
We have consulted with ceramic glass manufacturers
and they cannot offer a de
fi
nitive solution to this
problem. Dealers have tried various cleaning products
with varying results. The following are recommendations
only and are not meant to guarantee results.
NOTE: This is a problem beyond Miles Industries’
control and is not covered under warranty.
• Clean the glass regularly as soon as you notice
the buildup (white
fi
lm). If the
fi
lm is left for a longer
period of time, it will bake on. It is then much harder,
if not impossible, to remove.
• NEVER use an abrasive cleaner or ammonia-based
cleaner on the ceramic glass. Any abrasion of the
surface has the immediate effect of compromising
the strength of the glass. An emulsion type cleaner
is recommended.
• Use a soft damp cloth to apply the cleaner. Dry the
glass with a soft, dry, preferably cotton cloth. Most
paper towels and synthetic materials are abrasive to
ceramic glass and should be avoided.
• Our dealers have had good results from the
products listed below. We cannot, however,
guarantee the results of these products.
