6. MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
CAUTION!
All cleaning operations of all parts should be
conducted when the product is off and completely
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. Any soot and dirt accumulations take longer to clean.
CAUTION!
Do not spray the product on the painted parts or on
the gaskets of the door (ceramic fibre cord)
The ceramic glass installed on MCZ products are resistant to
temperatures of up to 750°C and are tested and inspected
before and after assembly to check for cracks, bubbles and
holes.
The glass, although highly resistant to elevated
temperatures, is a fragile element, and thus the door should
be handled with care without slamming or forcing it. Glass,
since it is not elastic, can break.
This type of glass does not burst or shatter but if it should
break, due to the above, it will only crack.
6.1.2. Cleaning upper calorite deflectors
These do not require particular care. With prolonged use, however, the
effective but porous material of which the deflectors inside the firebox
are made can wear out or become damaged. They should be replaced
only when their thickness is reduced by half or they break.
6.1.3. Cleaning out the ashes
This operation should be performed with the insert off. Adequate ash
drawer cleaning is also recommended for correct combustion.
Ashes which are still hot must not be dumped outside in an
uncontrolled manner or put in the dustbin. Leave them to cool
down in the open air in a metal container.
6.1.4. Cleaning of stainless steel and satin-finish surfaces
Normally these surfaces do not need to be treated, but if they do,
avoid cleaning them with abrasive materials. For surfaces in stainless
and satin brushed steel, we recommend cleaning with a paper towel or
a clean dry cloth moistened with a detergent based on non-ionic
surfactants ( < 5%). A spray glass cleaner may be used.
6.1.5. Cleaning of painted parts
Do not clean the painted parts with wet rags when the unit is in
operation or hot in order to prevent thermal shock to the paint which
