E & OE Instructions Part Number IN1123 Ed.G
Cleaning Your Stove
The Glass
For safety reasons never attempt cleaning the glass when the stove is operating or still hot, the stove must
be extinguished and allowed to cool. The glass in your stove is specially formulated to withstand the very
high temperatures generated within the stove and proprietary glass cleaners are not recommended as their
compositions may contain chemicals that will weaken or etch into the glass. Newspaper moistened with
water to which a little vinegar has been added will normally remove most staining.
DO NOT operate the stove if the glass is cracked or broken.
A replacement glass and glass seal set can be obtained from your local dealer or by contacting Euroheat
Spares Department 01885 491126.
The Stove Body
Dusting the stove may be carried out when the stove is at its minimum heat output temperature, using light
strokes of a real bristle paint brush. Thorough cleaning, or any attempt to remove marks on the stove body,
must only be done when the stove is cold.
Stoves with a matt cast black finish must never be cleaned with a cloth as the texture of the cast iron surface
and the paint will abrade and collect lint from the cloth, which will be almost impossible to remove. Vigorous
brushing with a stiff bristle brush will remove all dust, but where the paint is marked, the stains are better
obliterated with a spray of suitable stove paint rather than attempting to clean them off. Suitable paint may
be purchased from your stove retailer, or directly from Euroheat (Part number 40785).
Stoves with an enamel finish should be cleaned with a damp cloth, or very gentle use of a cleaner recommended
for enamel finishes. It should be noted that even approved cleaners will damage the highly polished finish
of the stove if used too vigorously. All traces of the cleaner must be removed before the stove is lit, and no
finishing polishes must ever be used as these will produce an obnoxious smell and leave unsightly streaks
on the stove when it becomes hot.
The glass clips should only hold the glass securely
and not clamp it tightly. Allowing for its expansion
when hot.
