Sealing The Glass - Faber Matrix FMG3326F Instruction Manual

Sealing the glass

5 mm ceramic glass front and side panels are provided . Contact Faber for replacement parts if required .
Silicone comes included with fireplace for application to any glass-to-glass connections on both sides of the glass .
Keep the following guidelines in mind when handling silicone and glass panels:
The purpose of the silicone is to create a gasket, not to ‟glue" the glass panels together . When placing glass
panels, ensure that the glass is fully in place and that the silicone is filling the space between the glass panels .
Place the front {or center) panel in place first and then slide the side panel into place so that the silicone edge
touches the glass edge .
