Cleaning instructions anti-reflective glass
The gas fire glass can become dirty when the fireplace is burning, but also
when being taken into use. Potential causes can be:
Smoking materials in the fireplace (especially in the beginning), air
contamination, quality of the type of gas etc.
Anti-reflective glass is polished ceramic glass to which a number of metal oxide
coatings have been applied that reduce the reflection to less than 1%. To
prevent damage to these coatings, it
is important that you carefully comply with the following cleaning instructions.
A blue/purple discolouration can become visible on the anti-reflective glass, as
a result of using the gas fire.
Requirements:
Filth or stains on the glass must be removed immediately.
Never turn on the fireplace if the glass is filthy or stained. This can lead to
permanent and non-removable contamination.
Clean the glass after the first use of the fireplace and clean the glass
regularly in the initial period.
Wear (rubber) gloves when cleaning the glass; fingerprints are particularly
noticeable on antireflective glass.
Use water and a soft cotton cloth, chamois leather or a microfibre cloth.
Use neutral glass detergent only: water solion with neutral or light alkaline
detergent without additives or abrasive substances. The acceptable share
of amutmonia and solvents that are organically soluble in water must be
smaller than 5%.
Carefully clean the glass: use sufficient moisture, avoid pressure and rub
the substance from top to bottom, to prevent cleaning detergent to remain
on the glass.
Continuously dry the glass completely using the cloth.
When using a vacuum lifter to remove the door, the suction cup rubber must
be clean in order to prevent damage to the coating.
WARNING!
