1. NEVER LEAVE YOUR FIREPLACE UNATTENDED WHILE IT IS IN USE.
2. NEVER CLOSE THE FIREPLACE GLASS DOORS WHILE A FIRE IS BURNING IN THE
FIREPLACE. Excessive fireplace temperatures may result which could cause the glass doors to
shatter and cause personal injuries or property damage. Tempered glass does not imply unbreakable
glass. In the unlikely event of glass failure, it will shatter into small pieces to reduce the risk of
personal injury or property damage.
3. Always keep the wire mesh screen completely closed when the fireplace is in use, except when
adding wood. A closed screen acts as a safety barrier for sparks.
4. Always confirm that the chimney damper is open before starting a fire and during use so that smoke
will not exhaust into the room. Always use the damper control knob(s) located at the bottom of the
firescreen to adjust the draft and fire intensity.
5. Always position the firewood grate close to the back wall of the firebox and at least 7” back from the
wire mesh screen. Never build too large of a fire, to assure safe use of the fireplace. Always keep all
combustible materials at least 3’ from the front of the fireplace when in use.
6. Never put any volatile substance in the fireplace. Always confirm that volatile liquids such as gasoline,
charcoal starter, lighter fluid, lantern fuel, or kerosene are NOT located near the front of the fireplace.
Only use kindling or prepackaged fire starter materials to start a fire.
7. Always provide adult supervision for children and pets when the fireplace is in use, and keep them at
a safe distance to prevent accidental burns. To prevent burns, always wear an insulated mitt before
touching the damper control knobs, door handles, wire mesh screen, glass doors, or door frames
whenever the fireplace is in use.
8. Never use the fireplace for incinerating trash, newspapers, or waste materials which may release
toxic/noxious fumes.
9. Never allow cold water or other cold substances to come in contact with the fireplace doors before
they have cooled completely, as the glass could shatter.
10. Never attempt to dispose of ashes until they have cooled completely, as hot ashes are a potential
source of ignition. Always use the fireplace clean-out door (if available) for removing the ashes and
always use a metal container for safe disposal.
