n Cleaning lacquered surfaces<br />
To remove soot from lacquered surfaces, use only a soft dry cloth. Do not use abrasives,<br />
solvents or similar substances. Remember that your stove may be lacquered, but it is not<br />
entirely rustproof.<br />
If the stove is overheated, a slight grey discolouration may appear on the outer surface.<br />
Discoloured areas can be retouched using a standard heat resistant stove lacquer. This may<br />
produce an unpleasant odour until it has hardened fully. Make sure that the room is well<br />
ventilated.<br />
n Cleaning the fire chamber<br />
Clean the fire chamber regularly (or whenever required) and empty the ash box. The amount<br />
of cleaning will depend on the type of wood burned and on how frequently the stove is used.<br />
n Disposing of ash<br />
To remove ash from the fire chamber, use a small shovel or similar tool. Metal ash containers<br />
which can be attached to a vacuum cleaner are excellent for this purpose. Make sure that<br />
the ash has cooled down and contains no hot embers. Use only fireproof non-combustible<br />
containers to store the ash. Do not place these containers on combustible or heat sensitive<br />
surfaces. If in doubt, consult your dealer.<br />
CAUTION! Do not put the ash in a rubbish bag or use a vacuum cleaner without an<br />
intervening ash container made of metal.<br />
n Maintenance of seals<br />
The seals on doors and glass windows are subject to wear and tear due to continuous exposure<br />
to heat. Check them regularly and replace them at least once a year, or ask your dealer<br />
to do this.<br />
n Cleaning the fire chamber and connection piece<br />
Using a vacuum cleaner or small brush, clean the interior of the fire chamber and the<br />
connection area to the stove pipe at least once per year.<br />
