Shutting Down
The stove will normally shut down by itself as the fuel is consumed so there is no need to close
the air control towards the end of the burn. In order to shut down the stove for other reasons,
close air controls. If the controls are left in this position, the fire will eventually go out but it will
also cause the glass to blacken/grey out as the fire dies down. If you want to revive the fire it is
recommended that the air controls are opened fully initially.
Warning! - The stove will remain very hot for a considerable time after the fire has died down
or been extinguished.
7.12
Shut down for prolonged periods
If the stove is to be left unused for a prolonged period of time then it should be given a
thorough clean to remove ash and unburned fuel residues. To enable a good flow of air through
the appliance to reduce condensation and subsequent corrosion damage, leave the air controls
open. It is important that the flue connection, any appliance baffles or throat plates and the
chimney are swept prior to lighting up after a prolonged shutdown period.

User Maintenance
See also the Cleaning section above and Maintenance Guide Section below for further
information.
Inspect the inside of the firebox and above the baffle plate every week during use.
Where the chimney is believed to have previously served an open fire installation, it is possible
that the higher flue gas temperature from the stove may loosen deposits that were previously
firmly adhered, with the consequent risk of flue blockage. It is therefore recommended that the
chimney be swept a second time within a month of regular use after installation. See chimney
cleaning section in section Warnings and Important Information. Inspect the inside of the
stove and the flue ways and ensure they are 100% clear after a period of disuse (e.g summer).
Check all rope seals and glass gasket seals for completeness, wear and that there are no gaps
between the ends etc. Any gaps must be eliminated and ropes must be re-adhered to their
grooves with suitable rope seal cement where required. Worn or missing rope or glass gasket
seals will affect appliance operation, control and emissions output and can lead to
overheating damage.
Check all air intakes and outlets within the stove for cleanliness and remove any ash or debris
build up by suitable means.
Check outside air ventilators and stove air inlets are clean and unobstructed.
Only use manufacturers recommended replacement parts on the appliance.
