Vent systeM
The fireplace and venting system should be inspected
before initial use and at least annually by a qualified field
service person. Inspect the external vent cap on a regular
basis to make sure that no debris is interfering with the
airflow. Inspect entire venting system to ensure proper
function.
GLass Door
Thoroughly clean the inside of the glass door after using
the fireplace for two hours. Periodically clean the glass
door as necessary.
When cleaning the glass, remember:
•
Do not remove the glass when hot.
Allow glass to
cool before removal.
•
NEVER use abrasive materials.
•
Keep children and pets a safe distance away.
•
Never operate the fireplace without the glass door
properly secured.
•
Never operate the fireplace if the glass is broken.
•
Replace any glass that is chipped, cracked, or broken.
Replacement glass door assemblies MUST be supplied
by the fireplace manufacturer –

als may be used.
•
Handle glass door with care to avoid striking or scratch-
ing it on hard objects.
To clean glass door, follow “Glass Removal” procedure
outlined in the
Final Installation
section. Film deposit on the
inside of the glass should be cleaned off using a nontoxic,
non-corrosive, non-abrasive, mild-cleaning solution. Simply
apply an adequate amount to the glass and wipe off with
a damp cloth. After all maintenance has been completed,
re-install glass door.

holding gently at each end. Gloves are recommended to
prevent skin irritation from ceramic fibers. If skin becomes
irritated, wash gently with soap and water. Vacuum surface
of stones with brush attachment or brush logs with a soft
bristly (i.e. clean, dry paintbrush). To place stones in the
fireplace, refer to Stone Placement section on
Page 30
