1) Consult your fireplace's wanant? manual fnr tlre proper way to build and maintain a fire. You may close the glass doow after the fire is well-started. WARhmG: Closing the doors on an extremely hot fire could h a m the glsss.

2) Su'ld the iiie carefully to ensure that the door's glzss warns slou,ly arid evenly. The !em?p-red :lass will withstand a gradual temperature rise to 550 degrces Fahrenheit, which is hotter :han a normal fire will generate. Avoiding fuel such as pi:cb laden logs, very dry mill end lumber, large amounts of paper or cardboard boxes and artificial logs will prevent a "too hot" Fie. Keep the fire well back from the doors and never allow flames to contact ihe. glass.

3) If your fire gets too large, opening the glass doors will quickly reduce the heat in the fiebox. Push the Isgs or other fuel to the rear of the firebox and rcamnge to c7eate e smaller Ere. -4ilow the fire to dvindle to a smaller size before closing the doos 2 g 2 k
