7. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Basic information

Note

When you vacuum clean around the stove ensure that you do not 
vacuum into the combustion air intake during heating operation� 
You could vacuum out embers – FIRE RISK!

Note

Your stove must be cooled before any maintenance work is 
performed�

The frequency with which the stove requires cleaning and the 
maintenance intervals depend on the fuel you use� High moisture 
content, ash, dust and chips may more than double the maintenance 
required� Only use wood that has been stored properly and is dry 
and untreated�

Note

Ash may contain embers – only place ash in sheet steel containers� 
FIRE RISK! In a cold state, dispose it of in the household waste�

Clean combustion chamber

Note

Only when the stove is cold! You could vacuum out embers – FIRE 
RISK!

The combustion chamber must be regularly cleaned from ash to 
ensure an adequate supply of air� If you remove the grate, you can 
sweep the ashes with a broom in the ash tray� You can also use an 
ash vacuum cleaner�

Empty ash drawer

Empty the ash drawer regularly� The ash drawer is simply lifted out 
with the combustion chamber door open�

Clean painted surfaces

(If necessary)

Wipe the painted surfaces with a damp cloth, do not scrub� Do not 
use solvent-containing cleaners�

Clean convection air openings

Vacuum clean any dust deposits from the convection air openings 
at regular intervals�

The stove should be cleaned thoroughly prior to the start of the 
heating season to prevent excess odour�
