3.10 Idle period
If the stove is not going to be used for a long period, it is advisable to store it in a safe and protected place.

-
carefully clean it, and replace any damaged parts if necessary;
-
cover the stove to protect it from dust.
4 – ROUTINE STOVE CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Good maintenance will help improve the operation, efficiency and service life of the heating stove.
Every day, before lighting the fire, remove any unburnt residuals on the grate and the ashes in the ash pan
zone.
4.1 Removing the ash
The EMMANUELLE stove has a removable grate that should be cleared of ash using the poker provided, every
time before loading wood.
Make sure to periodically empty the ash pan, since the accumulation of ash under the grate hinders the flow of
combustion air. Otherwise the grate will overheat and may become damaged.
To prevent the risk of fire, allow the ashes to cool outdoors in a metal container or in the stove and
eliminate them in compliance with current local regulations.
4.2 Cleaning the glass
The glass can be cleaned using a damp cloth and normal non-abrasive detergents.
Remove any encrustations with suitable detergents, before they become dry.
The ceramic glass can withstand temperatures of around 750°C: in case of breakage, it is advisable to replace it
with another original glass supplied by Cola.
The glass must only be cleaned when the stove is cold.
4.3 Stove cladding maintenance
Clean the cladding only when the stove is cold.
COLA ceramics are handicraft production and therefore may have minor surface imperfections such as tiny
spots or slight colour differences.
It is advisable to use a soft dry cloth to clean the ceramic surfaces; the use of detergents could highlight any
imperfections.
4.4 Cleaning the cast iron hotplate
Before lighting the stove for the first time, make sure to carefully clean the hotplate with hot soapy water, rinse
with clean water and dry.
Before first use and after cleaning, the hotplate should be preheated for about half an hour with the wood-fired
oven door open and the damper lever in position A.
For regular cleaning of the cast iron part of the hotplate, it is advisable to use slightly abrasive materials (e.g.
sandpaper or steel wool), rubbing in the direction of the surface finish.
At the end of the season it is advisable to apply a film of olive oil or neutral vaseline on the cast iron hotplate to
protect it.
4.5 Cleaning the wood-fired oven
It is advisable to clean the wood-fired oven when half-cold or cold and every time after it is used, to prevent
grime forming on the surfaces.
To clean the stainless steel surfaces of the wood-fired oven, use a non-abrasive detergent with a soft cloth,
rinsing thoroughly to remove all traces of detergent which could otherwise contaminate food or cause corrosion.
To clean the baffle located under the oven, open the stove oven door, remove the steel plate and clean.
4.6 Cleaning the hob
Clean the hob only when cold. The stainless steel and painted parts must be cleaned with lukewarm water and
a non-corrosive detergent, then dried with a soft
cloth. Never use metal scouring pads or detergents containing abrasive substances. All aluminium parts must
only be cleaned with alcohol or degreasing products.
Also regularly clean the flame spreaders and burner caps, making sure to remove grime from clogged holes. Do
not clean the grates in a dishwasher.
