5. Cleaning Plated Surfaces
• Frequency: As necessary
• By: Homeowner
• Task: See the following instructions.
Clean all the ngerprints and oils from plated surfaces
BEFORE ring the appliance for the rst time. If not
cleaned properly before lighting your rst re, the oils
can cause permanent markings on the plating. After the
plating is cured, the oils will not affect the nish and little
maintenance is required. Wipe clean as needed.

to the touch.
2. Protect a table or counter top with padding or towels.
Protect your hands and wear gloves to prevent
injury.

door up and off of the hinges.
4.
Lay door face down on a table or counter making sure
the handle hangs over the edge so the door lays at,
on a soft surface.
5. Remove the screws from each glass retainer and
remove the glass. (If screws are dif cult to remove,
soak with penetrating oil rst).

opening in the door, (i.e. same space top and bottom,
left and right sides).
7. Replace the glass retainers. Be careful not to cross
thread the screws.
8. Tighten each retainer just a few turns until each is
secured. Check again for centering of glass in door
frame. Continue to tighten each retainer alternately,
a few turns at a time, until the glass is secure. DO

4. Glass Cleaning
• Frequency: As necessary
• By: Homeowner
• Task: See the following instructions.
Clean glass with a non-abrasive glass cleaner. Abrasive
cleaners may scratch and cause glass to crack. 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 ring can permanently stain the glass
and damage the nish on plated metal surfaces.
A portion of the combustion air entering the rebox is de ected
down over the inside of the door glass. This air ow “washes”
the glass, helping to keep smoke from adhering to its surface.
When operated at a low burn rate, less air will be owing
over the glass and the smokey, relatively cool condition of a
low re will cause the glass to become coated. Operating
the appliance with the Burn Rate Air Control and Start-Up Air
Control all the way open for 15-20 minutes should remove
the built up coating.
