VIII.- CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
1.- Enamelled front.
Preferably clean when the cooker is
cold. Use a damp cloth dipped in soapy
water and then dry.
Avoid using strong detergents or
abrasive products that may damage the
enamel
All brass hinges should be cleaned in
the classical manner using specific
products for this purpose, such as Sidol,
Netol….
2.- Polished hob and rings.
To preserve the aspect of this hob,
clean frequently with a powdered
detergent and a metal scouring pad and
then dry.
3.- Ash
When this operation is required, shake
the grill so that the ash will fall into the
ash pan. Empty the ash pan in a metal
container and immediately remove from
the house.
4.- Soot
The cover that has to be removed to
clean soot is below the oven door.
This cover is used to clean soot that
may have accumulated at the bottom of
the cooker.
IX.- SAFETY
A number of possible risks are present
when operating your solid fuel cooker
with fuel of any brand.
The said risks can be minimised if the
instructions
and
recommendations
included in this manual are followed.
Below, we shall recommend some rules
and advice but, above all else, we
recommend common sense.
1. Keep any flammable material
(curtains, clothes...) away
from cooker, at a minimum
safety distance of 0.90 m.
2. Protect nearby furniture with
heat resistant materials on the
hob and smoke outlet.
3. Leave a 50 mm. gap between
furniture and the sides of the
cooker for air to flow through.
4. Ash should be emptied into a
metal
container
and
immediately removed from the
house.
5. Do not use flammable liquids
to light the cooker.
6. Keep any type of flammable
liquid (petrol, alcohol...) away
from the cooker.
7. Inspect
the
chimney

and
clean
whenever necessary.

walls that may catch fire easily
or that have some type of
lining that may be damaged or
deformed by temperature
(varnish, paint, PVC...).
