6. MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
ATTENTION!
All cleaning operations of all parts should be
conducted with the fireplace stove cold.
6.1. CLEANING TO BE PERFORMED BY THE USER
6.1.1. Cleaning the glass
Specific products can be used to clean the glass (see our pricelist), a
cloth dampened with water and ammonia or a bit of white ash and a
newspaper.
Completely lower the door and using the suitable hook provided or your
hands, open the handle (1) taking it from position A to B, thus locking
the door frame. Insert the hexagonal key provided in the lock and turn
it anticlockwise (2) to open the door (3). To close, perform the steps
listed above in reverse order.
ATTENZIONE!
Do not use abrasive products and do not spray the
cleaning product on the painted parts or on the
gaskets of the door (ceramic fibre cord)
6.1.2. Cleaning the exchanger
A scraper is provided to remove the creosote that may form in the
exchanger; when the fireplace stove is cold the creosote is black, shiny,
flaky and easy to remove. The advice is to remove the creosote at least
every 20 days of operation to always have a constant yield over time;
the exchanger pipe will only require a general brushing.
This operation is very important and easy to do in order to obtain the
declared efficiency over time. With the exchanger blocked with
creosote, 20% of the efficiency may be lost.
6.1.3. Cleaning out the ashes
This operation should be performed with the fireplace stove off.
Adequate ash drawer cleaning is also recommended for correct
combustion.
ATTENTION!
If the ash drawer is not periodically emptied, deformations on
the grilles of the firebox bed may occur.
Ashes which are still hot must neither be dumped outside in an
uncontrolled manner nor put in the dustbin. Leave them to cool
down in the open air in a metal container or far from
combustible materials.
