1.
Ceramic Components and Fuel Bed
- Debris from any
source should be removed with a soft brush. Please ensure
that any debris including soot deposits are removed from the
appliance and not left on the fuel bed. It is recommended that
the user should, on a regular quarterly basis, carefully
remove all ceramic components and thoroughly clean the
stainless steel burner strip and the pilot assembly. Any build
up of debris in this area could affect the operation of the
appliance.
NOTE
: It is common to find surface cracks in the ceramic components. This is due to the expansion and
contraction of the ceramic fibres caused by the intense heat that the burner generates. The cracks will not
affect the safe operation of this appliance. However great care must be taken when handling the ceramic
components as they will break if handled incorrectly. Do not use a vacuum cleaner to clean the ceramics.
