N OTE: Remove all labels from glass prior to lighting

GLASS CARE
1. Ensure that the fire is out and the appliance is cool to
the touch.
2. Protect a table or counter top with padding or towels.
3. Remove door with broken glass from the appliance by
lifting door up and off of the hinges.
4. Lay door face down on a table or counter making sure
handle and handle attachment knob hang over the
edge of the table top so door lays flat, on a soft sur-
face.
5. Remove the screws from each glass retainer.
6. Remove the glass.
7. Position the glass with edges evenly overlapping the
opening in the front door.
8. Replace the glass retainers. Be careful not to cross
thread the screws.
9. Tighten each retainer just a few turns until each is
secured. Then continue to tighten each retainer alter-
nately, a few turns at a time, until the glass panel is
tightened snugly.
10. Replace the door on the appliance.
This stove is equipped with ceramic, heat-resistant glass,
which can only be broken by impact or misuse. Do not slam
the stove door or impact the glass. When closing the door,
make sure that logs do not protrude against the glass.
Inspect the glass regularly for cracks or breaks. If you detect
a crack or break, extinguish the fire immediately and contact
your Dealer for replacement.
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 adher-
ing to its surface. When operated at a low burn rate, less
air will be flowing over the glass and the smokey, relatively
cool condition of a low fire will cause the glass to become
coated. Operating the stove with the Primary Air Control
all the way open for 15-20 minutes should remove the built
up coating. If the deposits on the glass are not very heavy,
normal glass cleaners work well. Heavier deposits may be
removed by using a damp cloth dipped in wood ashes or by
using a commercially available oven cleaner. After using an
oven cleaner, it is advisable to remove any residue with a
glass cleaner or soap and water. Oven cleaner left on during
the next firing can permanently stain the glass and damage
the finish on plated metal surfaces.
Do not clean the glass with abrasive materials that may
scratch or otherwise damage the glass. Scratches on the
glass can develop into cracks or breaks. Never attempt to
clean the glass while a fire is in the unit. The best method
for maintaining clean glass is to operate the stove efficiently
by using dry well seasoned wood and burning moderate to
hot fires.

DOOR GLASS IS BROKEN OR MISSING. DAN-
GEROUS OVERFIRING CAN OCCUR WHICH CAN

SOTE IN THE CHIMNEY, POSSIBLY CAUSING A

CARE AND CLEANING OF PLATED SURFACES
Clean plated surfaces with vinegar or a glass cleaner before

CAUTION:
Do not use polishes with abrasives as it will
