BLAZE KING LIMITED LIFETIME WARRANTY
Legal Rights of Purchaser:This warranty gives you specific legal rights and you may have other rights that vary from state to state (orprovince to province).

Included with each gas stove manufactured by Blaze King is a Warranty Card, which must be completed in its

Extra charges such as mileage, overtime or shipping are not covered. Nuisance calls are notcovered by the Plan. This Plan is for residential stoves and does not apply to commercial applications. Only
repairs attributed to normal failure of the electronic and mechanical functions of the stove are covered. Failure
due but not limited to, abuse, negligence, impact, fire, lightning, power failures and or surges, rust and corrosion
are not covered. Damage and or repairs to cabinets and all exterior components, remote controls, and normal

equipment required to comply with the law and or regulations set forth by any governmental agencies are notcovered by this Plan.

WHITE MINERAL DEPOSITSOne of the byproducts of the combustion process in a gas appliance is a mineral which can show up as a whitefilm on the ceramic glass of the viewing door. The composition of the deposit varies widely from location tolocation and also from time to time in the same locations. You may have the problem for a time and then not see it
for many months when it will reappear in your area. It seems this is associated with the varying sulfur content of
the gas. We have discussed this problem with ceramic glass manufacturers and they cannot give us a definitive
answer to this problem. We have input from several dealers who have tried different cleaning products withvarying results. We can only make the following recommendations but we cannot guarantee results in very case.

WARNING!!
Never clean the ceramic glass or any other part of the appliance while it is still hot. Please shut
off your appliance and wait for it to cool down prior to cleaning.
1) Clean the glass regularly as soon as you notice the buildup (white film). If the film is left for a long period oftime it will build up and bake on making it hard or almost impossible to remove2) NEVER use an abrasive cleaner on the ceramic glass. Any abrasion of the surface will immediately affect thestrength of the glass. An emulsion type cleaner is best.
3) Use a soft, damp, preferably cotton, cloth to apply the cleaner and a soft, dry cloth to dry the glass. Most paper
towels and synthetic materials are abrasive to ceramic glass and should be avoided.
WHITE OFF by Rutland has been tested and shown to be effective in removing ugly mineral deposits fromceramic glass.
NOTE: This is a problem beyond BLAZE KING'S control and is not covered under warranty.

DOOR SEAL GASKETThe front door of your new Blaze King direct vent is gasketed and has been adjusted for a tight seal. As with all
direct vent appliances, a tight seal is necessary for maximum performance and proper venting of combustion products. With use the door gasket material may compress and the door may require periodic adjustments to maintaina proper seal. The time to make these adjustments will vary depending upon individual hours of use, btu settings,
and frequency of opening and closing the door. Check the door on your appliance periodically, especially during
the first 90 days of operation, to ensure it is sealing properly. Your Blaze King dealer/installer should be contacted
to properly adjust the door if required.
