Page 28: Cleaning
16.2. Cleaning It will be necessary to clean the glass periodically. During startup, condensation, which is normal, forms on the inside of the glass and causes dust, lint etc. to cling to the glass surface. Initially paint, while curing, may deposit a slight film on the glass. We therefore recommend that, during the first few weeks of use, the glass is cleaned two or three times with non-abrasive common household cleaners and warm water. -
Page 29: Checks
16.4. Checks • A periodic check of the pilot and burner flames should be made. Check after the fire has been on for at least 30 minutes. The pilot flame must cover the tip of the thermocouple probe.
