possible condition.
15. SEASONAL USE
15.1 Clean and service the appliance if it is not used during the
warmer periods of the year, as detailed in the Maintenance
and Servicing section.
15.2 Set the air controls to 50% to keep the appliance ventilated
and stop the build-up of any moisture inside.
15.3 Before re-lighting the appliance:
—
Remove the baffle.
—
Clear any debris that may have accumulated.
—
Check the flue is clear of any blockages.
USER INSTRUCTIONS
Check for obvious build up of soot, ash or debris above the
flue baffle(s) (these can be found in the upper part of the
firebox). Use a torch if necessary.
If there are any signs of a build up of debris above the flue
baffle(s) either:
—
Arrange for the chimney to be swept (see User
Instructions, Section 13).
—
Remove the baffle and clear the debris (see Installation
Instructions, Section 4).
To refresh painted finishes use Stovax Riva Midnight black
metallic paint.
Wipe dry with a soft clean cloth be fore relighting. Always
dry appliance to avoid rust.
Do not use abrasive cleaner or cleaning pads.
Check that the door shuts properly and creates an effective
seal. Leaking door seals prevent the appliance working
properly.
Do not use aerosol sprays near an operating appliance.
12. CLEANING GLASS
Keep the glass clean with correct use of the Airwash system
and good quality fuel.
12.1 Sometimes additional cleaning may be required.
This can be done as follows:
—Allow appliance to cool fully. Do not clean hot glass.
—Use a soft cloth and suitable cleaner.
12.2 Do not use cleaning agents that have a high alkaline
content, for example Stovax Gel Cleaner, on appliances
with painted glass such as the Studio, View or CL. These
are abrasive cleaning agents that are designed to be used
with heavily stained clear glass. Use Stovax Glass Cleaner
(Stovax No.4103) on more delicate surfaces .
Do not use acidic cleaners on printed glass.
12.3 Before re-lighting the appliance dry the glass fully.
13. CHIMNEY SWEEPING
13.1 To maintain safe and efficient use of the appliance, the
chimney/flue must be inspected and swept at least once a
year by a qualified chimney sweep**.
If the appliance is used continuously throughout the year,
or it is used to burn wood or smokeless fuel, more frequent
sweeping is recommended.
The best time to have the chimney swept is at the start of
the heating season.
The above applies even if burning smokeless fuels.
