GLASS CARE
The following usage and safety tips should be
observed:
1. Inspect the glass regularly for cracks and
breaks. If you detect a crack or break, extin-
guish the fire immediately and contact the
manufacturer for a replacement.
2. Do not slam the door or otherwise impact the
glass. When closing doors, make sure that logs
or other objects do not protrude to impact the
glass.
3. Do not build fires against (or that might fall
against) the glass.
4. Do not clean the glass with materials that
may scratch (or otherwise damage) the glass.
Scratches on the glass can develop into cracks
or breaks during operation.
5. Never attempt to clean the glass while the unit
is hot. If deposits are not very heavy, normal
glass cleaners are adequate using a soft, non-
abrasive cleaning pad. Heavier deposits may
be removed with oven cleaners.
6. Never put substances which can ignite explo-
sively in the unit. Even small explosions in
confined areas can blow out the glass.
