GLASS CLEANING

It will be necessary to clean the glass periodically. During
start-up condensation, which is normal, forms on the inside
of the glass and causes lint, dust and other airborne
particles to cling to the glass surface. Also initial paint
curing may deposit a slight film on the glass. It is therefore
recommended that the glass be cleaned two or three times
with a non-ammonia household cleaner and warm water
(we recommend gas fireplace glass cleaner). After that the
glass should be cleaned two or three times during each
heating season depending on the circustances present.
Clean glass after first two weeks of operation.
Do not clean glass when hot.
Do not use abrasive cleaners.
Do not strike or slam the glass.
