Glass must be cleaned periodically. During start-up

of the glass causing lint, dust and other airborne
particles to cling to the glass surface. During initial
start-up a slight film may form on the glass due to
paint curing. The glass should be cleaned several
times with a non-ammonia, nonabrasive household
cleaner and warm water after the first two weeks of
operation. Thereafter, clean the glass two or three
times during each heating season, depending on the
usage and circumstances present. Refer to Remov-
