opening. Then, the baffle plates must be removed. An annual internal cleaning is necessary
to get the best heating effect from the stove. Please do this in connection with the sweeper
of the chimney and flue pipes in local.
Inspection
AMI Fires recommends that you personally inspect your stove carefully after sweeping.
Check all visible surfaces for cracks. Seals on doors and glass panels are subject to wear
especially due to the heat. We recommends that seals be checked regularly and replaced 1x
annually. (Seals are wearing parts and are not covered by the warranty)
Firebox linings
Firebox may crack during use. Cracks in the firebox lining will not impair the function of the
stove. The firebox lining should be replaced if it is burnt through or starts to crumble.
(Firebox linings are consumable parts and are not covered by the warranty).
Glass panel
The glass panel is highly heat resistant. Bubbles in the glass are due to production and are
not a quality defect. (The glass panel is not covered by the warranty).
Stock/Spare parts
Stock/spare parts, in particular moving parts, are liable to wear with frequent use. Only
original spare parts must be used. At the end of a heating period, it is recommended to have
the stove serviced by your local dealer.
Enamel
AMI Fires recommend cleaning with a moist cloth and soapy water. Do not use any cleaning
products containing acid. Do not place cold containers on hot enamel surfaces. The
difference in temperature leads to stresses, which can cause the enamel to crack.
9. Troubleshooting-Operational problems
Burns too quickly
If the stove is new, Are the upper baffle plates pushed all the way back? If the stove is more
than one year old or has been used frequently, the seals may need to be replaced.
Poor draught
Check the length of the chimney and that it complies with national laws and regulations.
Make sure that the minimum cross section on the chimney is according to our Tech Date.
Make sure that there is not anything preventing the smoke gases from escaping
Upon suspicion of excessive/poor draught in the chimney, the chimney sweep may need to
be contacted.
