Jøtul C 21 / C 22

english6.0 Maintenance6.1 Cleaning the glassJøtul C 21/22 is equipped with top draught (air wash). Throughthe air vent air is sucked in above the fireplace and washed downalong the inside of the glass. This system has the advantage thatit provides better combustion and reduces the buildup of sootdeposits on the glass.Still, some soot will always stick to the glass, but the quantity willdepend on the local draught conditions and adjustment of thedraught vent. Most of the soot layer will normally be burned offwhen the draught vent is opened all the way and a fire is burningbriskly in the fireplace.Good advice! For normal cleaning, moisten a paper towel withwarm water and add some ash from the burn chamber. Rub itover the glass and then clean the glass with clean water. If it isnecessary to clean the glass more thoroughly we recommend aglass cleaner (follow the instructions for use on the bottle).6.2 Ash removal• Only do this when the fireplace is cold.• Use a drawer (or similar) and scrape the ashes out, but alwaysallow some ash to remain as a protective layer in the bottomof the stove.• Ash must be placed in a metal container with a sealed lid.Also see the description below about how to handle ash: «3.0Safety precautions».6.3 Cleaning and soot removalSoot deposits may build up on the internal surfaces of the stoveduring use. Soot is a good insulator and will therefore reduce thestove’s heat output. If soot deposits accumulate when using theproduct, they can be easily removed by using a soot remover.An annual internal cleaning is necessary to get the best heatingeffect from the product. It is a good idea to do this in connectionwith the sweeping of the chimney and flue pipes.6.6 External maintenancePainted products may change colour after several years usage.The surface should be cleaned and brushed free of any looseparticles before new paint is applied.Enamelled products must only be cleaned with a clean, dry cloth.Do not use water and soap.
