high temperature paint.

The glass door on your heater permits you to enjoy the beauty of the fire while retaining efficiency of your
heater. Although brand of glass used in heater door has well established and recognized heat resistant and
strength characteristics, it can be broken through improper care. To achieve maximum utility and safety of your
glass door, we advise that you observe following use and safety tips:
1. Inspect glass regularly for cracks or breaks. If you detect a crack or break extinguish fire immediately
and return door to your dealer for glass replacement before further use.
2. Do not slam heater door or otherwise impact glass. When closing door, make sure that no logs or other
objects protrude or impact against glass.
3. Do not clean glass with materials which may scratch it (such as steel wool) or otherwise damage glass.
Scratches on the glass can develop into cracks or breaks.
The glass can be cleaned with a commercial oven cleaner, providing it does not contain abrasives. A build-up
on glass that has been there for a considerable length of time can be burned off with a propane torch or straight
razor blade
Use protective gloves when using razor.
