Glass Replacement - Door - Quadra-Fire 5100I-GD-B Owner's Manual

A portion of the combustion air entering the firebox is
deflected down over the inside of the door glass. This
air flow "washes" the glass, helping to keep smoke from
adhering to its surface. When operated at a low burn
rate, less air will be flowing over the glass and the smoky,
relatively cool condition of a low fire will cause the glass
to become coated. Operating the appliance with the
Primary Air Control all the way open for 15-0 minutes
should remove the built up coating.
CAUTION
Handle glass assembly with care.
When cleaning glass:

5. Cleaning Plated Surfaces
• Frequency: As necessary
• By: Homeowner
• Task: Clean all the fingerprints and oils from plated
surfaces BEFORE firing the appliance for the first time.
If not cleaned properly before lighting your first fire, the
oils can cause permanent markings on the plating. Use
warm soapy water and a soft rag, glass cleaner and a
paper towel, or vinegar and a paper towel to remove the
oils. After the plating is cured, the oils will not affect the
finish and little maintenance is required. Wipe clean as
needed.
CAUTION
• Do not use polishes with abrasives, it will scratch plated
surface.
