A qualified service person recommended by your Har-
man dealer should conduct an annual inspection and main-
tenance of your Clarity, its venting, and the installation to
keep it running safely and efficiently. The following proce-
dures should be performed only by a qualified service per-
son. The gas supply should be turned off whenever a main-
tenance procedure is performed.
If the glass front, side doors, or front access door are
removed for servicing, they must be replaced prior to oper-
ating the Clarity.
Removing the Glass Front for Replacement
Refer to page 7 for directions on removing the glass front.
Use only authorized Harman replacement glass components
available from your Harman dealer.
Replacing the Gasket
The Clarity has 5/8" diameter fiberglass gasket in the front
door. Should it ever need replacement, use only the proper
replacement gasket that is available from your Harman dealer.
To replace the gasket, follow this procedure.
1. Open the door
2. Remove the existing gasket and clean its channel with
a scraper or wire brush.
3. Lay a thin bead of high temperature silicone the entire
length of the channel.
4. Lay the gasket in the channel with sufficient pressure
that is stays in place.
5. Trim the excess from the end of the gasket so that it
butts snugly against the other end without leaving a gap.
Seal the end joint with high temperature silicone.
6. Close the door and apply firm pressure to seat the gas-
ket evenly throughout.
Cleaning the Glass
The glass may be cleaned with ordinary household glass
cleaner and a soft cloth or paper towel.
WARNING: Never clean the glass when it is hot.
Do not use abrasive cleaners on the glass.
Inspecting the Venting
An inspection of both the inner and outer pipes of the
venting system should be made during the annual service
appointment. They must have no blockage and be in good
repair. The vent manufacturer's instructions may provide
specific suggestions or details on vent inspection. Any sec-
tions that are taken apart for the inspection must be reas-
sembled and sealed as required.
Cleaning the Log Set and Firebox
During the annual inspection and maintenance appoint-
ment, the service person should clean dust, lint, and any light
accumulation from the logs and the firebox area. An extra-
soft brush should be used on the logs as they are extremely
fragile; a vacuum cleaner may be used on the firebox. If at
any time the logs cannot be removed or installed without
forcing, the cause must be found. The logs must never be
forced.
Removing the Front
See directions on page 7.
Removal & Re-installation of the Log Set for Cleaning
CAUTION: The ceramic logs are durable when handled
and installed properly. However, they are delicate and may
be damaged easily if not handled with care. Handling dam-
age to the ceramic logs is not covered by warranty.
DO NOT HANDLE LOGS WHILE THEY ARE HOT.
ALLOW PLENTY OF TIME FOR THE STOVE TO
COOL COMPLETELY BEFORE HANLDING.
Remove the Branch
Detach the branch from the two locator pins and re-
move it. Brush it gently and carefully place it to one side.
Remove the Center Log
Lift the center log and remove it. Brush it gently and
carefully place it to one side with the branch.
Remove the Ember Strips
Carefully remove the ember strips, clean them, and place
them with the other logs.
Remove the Side Brick Panels
Carefully remove first one side panel, and then the other.
Clean and place to side.
Remove the Back Log and Back Brick Panel
Finally, carefully remove these two components as a single
piece. Brush them gently and place them to the side.
Finish the procedure by vacuuming the interior of the fire-
box, then re-install the logs and secure the glass front fol-
lowing the procedures on page 8.
