General Glass Information
Glass Cleaning
It will be necessary to clean the glass periodically. During start-up,
condensation, which is normal, forms on the inside of the glass and
causes dust, lint etc. to cling to the glass surface. Also, initial paint
curing can deposit a slight film on the glass. It is therefore recommended
that initially the glass be cleaned two or three times with non-abrasive
common household glass cleansers and warm water. After that, the
glass should be cleaned two or three times a season depending on the
circumstances.
Cautions and Warnings
• Do not clean when the glass is hot.
• The use of substitute glass will void all product warranties.
• Care must be taken to avoid breakage of the glass.
• Do not strike or abuse glass.
Glass Replacement
Use tempered glass Part #6500-109 or Door Kit Part #ZV65GD,
ceramic glass may be substituted.
