properly cured, it is recommended that you
burn your fi replace for at least four (4) hours

fi rst operated, the unit will release an odour
caused by the curing of the paint, the burning
off of any oils remaining from manufacturing.
Smoke detectors in the house may go off at
this time. Open a few windows to ventilate the
room for a couple of hours.
The glass panel may require cleaning
after the unit has cooled down.

GLASS WHILE IT IS HOT.

ance is lit, it may cause condensation
and fog the glass. This condensation

minutes as the glass heats up.

PLACE.
