VENT SYSTEM

The fireplace and venting system should be inspected before initial use and at least annually by a qualified field service
person. Inspect the external vent cap on a regular basis to make sure that no debris is interfering with the airflow. Inspect
entire venting system to ensure proper function.

GLASS DOOR

Thoroughly clean the inside of the glass door after using the fireplace for ten hours. Periodically clean the glass door as
necessary.
When cleaning the glass, remember:
• Do not remove the glass when hot. Allow glass to cool before removal.
• NEVER use abrasive materials.
• Keep children and pets a safe distance away.
• Never operate the fireplace without the glass door properly secured.
• Never operate the fireplace if the glass is broken.
• Replace any glass that is chipped, cracked, or broken. Replacement glass door assemblies MUST be supplied by the
fireplace manufacturer – No substitute materials may be used.
• Handle glass door with care to avoid striking or scratching it on hard objects.
To clean glass door, follow "Glass Removal" procedure outlined in the Canopy Installation and Glass Removal section.
Film deposit on the inside of the glass should be cleaned off using a nontoxic, non-corrosive, non-abrasive, mild cleaning
solution. Simply apply an adequate amount to the glass and wipe off with a damp cloth. After all maintenance has been
completed, re-install glass door.

LOGS

removed for cleaning, handle carefully by holding gently at each end. Gloves are recommended to prevent skin irritation
from ceramic fibers. If skin becomes irritated, wash gently with soap and water. Vacuum surface of logs with brush attach-
ment or brush logs with a soft bristle brush (i.e. clean, dry paintbrush). To place logs back in the fireplace, see Log and Rock
Wool Installation section.
