13. CLEANING

The cleaning operation must only be performed on a non-operating and cool down free standing fire unit.

Glass

The especially designed hot air glass washing system and vermiculite insulation helps to keep the glass clean for
most of
the operating conditions. However, if the glass becomes dirty:
1.  Open the door;
2.  Apply a spray or gel type glass cleaner onto a clean cloth or kitchen paper and gently rub the glass surface. Use

with
caution  as  most  of  the  glass  cleaners  are  corrosive;  the  direct  application  of  the  glass  cleaner  may  stain
other
surfaces.

3.  Never spill the glass cleaner liquid over the unit's metal surfaces; the cleaner may damage or corrode these

surfaces
causing rust (oxidation). The same caution applies to the sealing rope and other components, which may be
damaged
if in contact with these products;

4.  Allow the cleaner to work;
5.  Wipe off tar deposits using a slightly damp cloth. Polish with a dry cloth or paper.

DO NOT USE ABRASIVE PRODUCTS.

Cleaning the ashes

The unit is equipped with a fixed ash tray. You should clean it daily with the scoop provided. Lock the handle
horizontally
to use it as a shovel. Release the handle vertically to use it as a small bucket.
1.  Open the door.
2.  Rake the embers to one side of the firebox so that they can be used to re-start

the fire.

3.  Rake the ashes to the other side of the firebox and to the rear of the unit.
4.  With  the  foldable  scoop  locked  horizontally,  insert  it  into  the  combustion

chamber  in  a  front  to  back  direction  and  shovel  up  the  ashes.  Leave  approximately  1  cm  of  ash  in
order  to  protect  the  vermiculite  surface.
