Never touch any rotating parts in the pellet hopper. To avoid the risk
of coming into contact with rotating parts in the pellet hopper, it is
recommended that you always completely switch off the stove by
removing the plug from the power socket.
If the hopper needs refilling during operation, make sure the pellets and/
or pellet bag cannot come into contact with the hot parts of the stove
as this could lead to dangerous situations. Make sure never to touch any
rotating parts in the pellet hopper.
6. MAINTENANCE
The heat, ash and residue resulting from burning the fuel means regular cleaning
and servicing by both the end user and an authorised technician are required.
Thorough and regular cleaning of the stove is important for safety and the ef-
ficient operation of the appliance as well as increasing its lifespan. Do not use
steel wool, hydrogen chloride or other corrosive, aggressive or abrasive products to
clean either the interior or exterior of the stove. Especially after extended periods
of non-use the stove and the flue system must be checked for blockages.
