WARNING:

GLASS DOOR
WARNING:
Do not use abrasive cleaners as this
may damage glass. Use a nonabrasive household glass
cleaner to clean glass. Do not clean glass when hot.
Glass must be cleaned periodically. During start-up it is normal for
condensation to form on the inside of the glass causing lint, dust, and
other airborne particles to cling to the glass surface. During initial
start-up a slight film may form on the glass due to paint curing. The
glass should be cleaned several times with a non-ammonia, non-
abrasive househol cleaner and warm water after the first two weeks
of operation. Thereafter, clean the glass two or three times during
each heating season, depending on the usage and circumstances
present. Refer to Removing/Replacing Glass Door, on page 23 of this
manual when removing glass door for cleaning.
WARNING:
Only parts supplied by the manufac-
turer should be used when replacing broken or dam-
aged glass door panel (see Replacement Parts, page
##). This glass door panel is a complete unit. No
substitute materials may be used.
CAUTION:
Wear gloves and safety glasses while
handling or removing broken glass. Do not remove if
glass is hot. Keep children and pets away from glass.
If glass has been broken, carefully remove glass door (see Remov-
ing/Replaceing Glass Door, page 24). Vacuum all glass pieces with
a shop vac.
WARNING:
Turn off fireplace and let cool before
cleaning.
CAUTION:

door removed, cracked, or broken.

Door, on page 24 for instructions for replaceing glass door.

VENTING SYSTEM
Conduct annual inspection of the venting system following these
guidlines:
1. Check areas of venting system that are exposed to the weather
corrosion (rust spots or streaks and, in extreme cases, holes). Have
these items replaced immediately by a qualified service person.
2. Remove the vent cap and shine a flashlight ito vent. Re-
move any foreign material.
3. Check for evidence of excessive condensation. Continuous
condensation can cause corrosion of caps, pipes, and fittings
and can be caused by having excessive lateral runs, too many
elbows, or exterior portions of the system being exposed to
cold weather.
4. Inspect joints to verify that no pipe section or fitting has been
distributed and loosened. Check mechanical supports such as
wall straps for rigidity.
