Check the gasket material
on the back of the glass, making sure that it is attached and intact.
During a cold start up, condensation will sometimes form on the glass. This is a normal condition with
all gas fireplaces. This
condensation can allow dust and lint to cling to the glass surface which requires
periodic cleaning.
Initial paint curing of the appliance can leave a slight film behind the glass, a temporary problem. The
glass will need cleaning about two weeks after installation.
Use a mild glass cleaner and a soft cloth
.
Abrasive cleaners will damage the glass and painted
surfaces. Depending on the amount of use, the glass should require cleaning no more than two or three
times a season.
WARNING:
Do not clean the glass when it is hot.
