Vent System:
The fireplace and venting system should be inspected before initial use and at least annually by a qualified field
service person. Inspect the external vent cap on a regular basis to make sure that no debris is interfering with the
airflow. Inspect entire venting system to ensure proper function.
Refer to the VENT/OUTSIDE AIR KIT INSTALL section for removing and reinstalling vent components. Refer
to page 14.
Glass Door:
Periodically clean the glass door as necessary. You should thoroughly clean the inside of the glass door after using
the fireplace for the second or third time.
When cleaning the glass, remember:
• Warning: NEVER use abrasive cleaners or clean when hot. Allow glass to cool before removal (see figure 25
for removal).
• Keep children and pets a safe distance away.
• Never operate the fireplace without the glass door properly secured.
• Never operate the fireplace if the glass is broken.
• Caution: Replace any glass that is chipped, cracked, or broken. Replacement glass door assemblies MUST be
supplied by the fireplace manufacturer.
• Warning: No substitute materials may be used.
• Warning: Handle glass door with care to avoid striking or slamming shut
Film deposit on the inside of the glass should be cleaned off using a nontoxic, non-corrosive, non-abrasive, mild-
cleaning solution. Simply apply an adequate amount to the glass and wipe off with a damp cloth. After all
maintenance has been completed, re-install glass door.

Logs:
Leave logs installed in the fireplace for cleaning. Vacuum surface of the logs with a brush attachment. If logs must
be removed for cleaning, handle carefully by holding gently at each end. Gloves are recommended to prevent skin
irritation from logs. If skin becomes irritated, wash gently with soap and water. Vacuum surface of logs with brush
attachment or brush logs with a soft bristle brush (i.e. clean, dry paintbrush). To place logs back in the fireplace,
refer to “Log Placement” found in the FINAL INSTALLATION section.
NOTE
Soot cleaning fluid may be used on refractory logs.
