Maintenance
Glass
The glass can steam up when burning wet fuel or too little oxygen is
supplied. Also, the glass may steam up if the fire does not start fiercely
enough. This happens, for instance, when you start with small logs
instead of thin kindling wood. Moisture will then remain in the fireplace
for too long, and will settle on the coldest part: the glass.
Light moisture:
Use paper towel and then remove the light moisture using a damp cloth.
Counter pressure a little at the outside so that the glass panel does not
move.
Thicker deposits:
These can be treated with special fireplace glass cleaner (this can also
be done with a piece of moist paper towel and white ash). Allow a
moment for this to have its effect. Always make sure that these agents
do not come into contact with the painted surfaces in order to prevent
stains from being formed.
Moving parts
Moving and squeaking parts can be lubricated using graphite grease.
Ask your supplier for advice.

Maintenance ceramic firebricks
You need not worry about any cracks in the ceramic firebrick elements
as long as the flame does not come into direct contact with the metal
behind them.
