Whenever the view of the fire is obstructed, or weekly,
clean the glass using a soft cloth dampened with standard
household glass cleaner.
Never spray glass cleaner directly onto hot glass. Apply
the cleaner to the cloth then wipe the glass.
Fly-ash allowed to accumulate on the glass may lead to
permanent fogging or "crazing" of the glass.
Inspect the glass and sealing gasket. Replace gasket as
needed. Do not operate the stove with a broken glass.
Replacement glass, which is ceramic glass, should be
obtained only through your Harman dealer.
To replace a broken glass; first be sure to carefully remove
the broken glass and any remaining shards or pieces. With
the door laying on a flat surface, lay the gasketed glass
panel onto the door and be sure it is properly fitted into the
channel. Lay the glass retainer clips in place near each
corner, and secure them using the 3/8" screws. Be sure to
tighten each screw equally so you don't create a pressure
point on the glass.
