Check the ash drawer every two days to see if it needs emptying. For ash disposal see paragraph 7.2
7.5 Combustion chamber cleaning
Clean the combustion chamber weekly, removing ashes accumulated in the chamber using a vacuum
cleaner.
Note: Use a vacuum cleaner designed for the suction of ashes for this type of cleaning.
Once a week, open the front grille and pull the cleaner rod knob towards you at least 3 times.
7.6 Smoke chamber cleaning
Generally, clean the smoke chamber once a year (preferably at the beginning of the season) for best
stove operation. The frequency of this operation depends on the type of pellet used and the frequency
of use. Contact a Technical Assistance Centre for this type of cleaning.
7.7 Exhaust system cleaning
Until you are reasonably experienced regarding operating conditions, it is advisable to perform this
service at least monthly. Remove the T-fitting cap and proceed with duct cleaning. If necessary, at least
the first few times, request assistance from a qualified technician.
7.8 Cleaning metal and ceramic parts
Use a soft cloth moistened with water to clean metal stove parts.
Never clean metal or ceramic parts with alcohol, thinners, petrol, ketones or other degreasers.
Use of these substances frees the company from all liability. Discolouration of metal parts can be the
result of improper use of the stove.
7.9 Pellet slide cleaning
With the scraper A (Fig. 29), clean the pellet slide B (Fig. 30) from any incrustations that can slow down
or block the pellets' descent to the brazier.
It is recommended to do out this operation every 10 days in order to maintain the correct functioning.

7.10 Cleaning glass
Door glass must be clean (cold) with ammonia-based and non-corrosive degreasers as a diluent.
Prevent corrosive substances from coming into contact with the paint on the stove as these can cause
damage. If glass is hot, before proceeding with cleaning, keep the door open as long as necessary until
it cools down. Do not use any material that can scratch or damage the glass.
7.11 Broken glass
The stove is equipped with ceramic glass that is resistant to a thermal shock of 1350°F. This glass can
break only due to a strong impact or misuse. Do not slam the door or hit the glass. In case of breakage,
replace with an original replacement part only. Contact a Technical Assistance Centre to replace.
