the gasket. Do not stretch the gasket as you place it. Continue until you get to the start
and trim the gasket to length. Now pinch the gasket to the glass in a U shape, all around
the glass. Reinstall the glass, being careful to centre the glass carefully in the door. Do not
over-tighten the screws. Note that the two main causes of broken door glass are uneven
placement in the door and over-tightening of retaining screws.

Do not abuse the glass door by striking or slamming shut. Do not use the fireplace if the
glass is broken. To change the glass, perform the same operation described above.
Both glasses used in the MONACO are 5 mm thick of dimension: 12'' x 14 1/2'' and tested
to reach temperatures up to 1400º F. If the glass breaks, it must be replaced with one
having the same specification. Contact your FLAME dealer to obtain a genuine
replacement part (see "Part List", in appendix to get the proper part number).
WARNING: TEMPERED GLASS OR ORDINARY GLASS WILL NOT WITHSTAND THE
HIGH TEMPERATURES OF THE MONACO.
5.1.7 Cleaning and Painting the Fireplace
Do not attempt to clean or paint the fireplace when the unit is hot. Painted surfaces
can be wiped down with a damp cloth. Plated surfaces may be scratched by abrasive
cleaners. To maintain the finish at its original brilliance, use only a damp soft cloth to clean
plated surfaces.
If the paint becomes scratched or damaged, you can give your wood fireplace a brand
new look by repainting it with heat-resistant paint. Before painting, roughen the surface
with fine sand paper, wipe it down to remove dust, and apply two thin coats of paint. For
best results, use the same paint that was originally used on the fireplace, which is
available in spray cans. See your dealer for details.
