A. Glass Replacement - Door Assembly
(Replace with 5mm ceramic glass only)
1.
Ensure that the fire is out and the appliance is cool to
the touch.
2. Protect a table or counter top with padding or towels.
Protect your hands and wear gloves to prevent injury.
3.
Remove the door with the broken glass by lifting the
door up and off of the hinges.
4.
Lay door face down on a table or counter making sure
the handle hangs over the edge so the door lays flat, on
a soft surface.
5. Remove the screws from each glass retainer and
remove the glass. (If screws are difficult to remove,
soak with penetrating oil first).
6. Center the glass with edges evenly overlapping the
opening in the door, (i.e. same space top and bottom,
left and right sides).
7.
Replace the glass retainers. Be careful not to cross
thread the screws.
8. Tighten each retainer just a few turns until each is
secured. Check again for centering of glass in door
frame. Continue to tighten each retainer alternately, a
few turns at a time, until the glass is secure. DO NOT
OVER TIGHTEN - can cause glass to break.

Quadra-Fire appliances are equipped with ceramic super
heat-resistant glass, which can only be broken by impact or
misuse.
