and the glass strip (2) with a lint-free 
cloth moistened with a non-flammable 
glass cleaner.
 
In addition to cleaning the glass strip with 
a non-flammable glass cleaner, run your 
finger tip over the glass strip to see if you 
can feel anything on it. If you feel dirt or 
debris, clean the glass strip again 
concentrating on that area. You may need 
to repeat the cleaning process three or 
four times. To test, make a copy after each 
cleaning attempt.
