information.
Inspect the inside of the firebox and above the baffle plate every week during use.
Where the chimney is believed to have previously served an open fire installation, it is possible
that the higher flue gas temperature from the stove may loosen deposits that were previously
firmly adhered, with the consequent risk of flue blockage. It is therefore recommended that the
chimney be swept a second time within a month of regular use after installation. See chimney
cleaning section.
Warnings and Important Information. Inspect the inside of the stove and the flue ways and
ensure they are 100% clear after a period of disuse (e.g. summer).
Only use manufacturers recommended replacement parts on the appliance.
Check all rope seals and glass gasket seals for completeness, wear and that there are no gaps
between the ends etc. Any gaps must be eliminated and ropes must be re-adhered to their
grooves with suitable rope seal cement where required. Worn or missing rope or glass gasket
seals will affect appliance operation, control and emissions output and can lead to
overheating damage.
Check all air intakes and outlets within the stove for cleanliness and remove any ash or debris
build up by suitable means.
Check outside air ventilators and stove air inlets are clean and unobstructed.
Only use manufacturers recommended replacement parts on the appliance.
