5. Cleaning Plated Surfaces
• Frequency: Asnecessary
• By:Homeowner
• Task: Clean all the fingerprints and oils from plated
surfaces
BEFORE firing the appliance for the first time.
If not cleaned properly before lighting your first fire, the
oils can cause permanent markings on the plating. Use

oils.Aftertheplatingiscured,theoilswillnotaffectthe
finish and little maintenance is required. Wipe clean as
needed.
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
adheringtoitssurface.Whenoperatedatalowburn
rate, less air will be flowing over the glass and the smoky,
relatively cool condition of a low fire will cause the glass
to become coated. Operating the appliance with the
Primary Air Control all the way open for 15-0 minutes
shouldremovethebuiltupcoating.
