Cleaning Instructions for Decorative fronts
Use a microber cloth and Windex® Original Glass
Cleaner or 03M003 Stove Bright® Glass Cleaner to
clean the decorative front immediately after installation
to remove acids deposited by the installer or technician.
Spray the cleaner onto the microber cloth and carefully
wipe the entire surface. The decorative front should
be cleaned in this manner annually by the homeowner
to remove ngerprints or other contaminants. Once
oxidation of the paint pigment has occurred, cleaning will
not restore the original color.
Please contact your Hearth & Home Technologies
dealer with any questions or concerns.
