PREVENTIVE MEASURES AND MAINTENANCE
1.
We recommend to open the air intakes completely and to maintain an intense fire
from 10 to 20 minutes per day.
2.
Verify the accumulation of creosote every week that you use the appliance until
you know at which frequency it must be cleaned (minimum once per year).
3.
Remove every creosote deposit in order to prevent chimney fires.
4.
Do not alter or modify the air intakes of the appliance in order to get a stronger
fire.
5.
To clean the glasses, J.A. Roby Inc. recommends to use products sold for this
purpose or an oven cleaner. Avoid cleaning with abrasives or when the glass is
hot.
6.
Before lighting the first fire, clean the gold plated surfaces using a very soft rag
moistened with water. Do not use a paper towel to clean gildings. If they are not
erased before the first fire, fingerprints and other marks could stain these surfaces
permanently.
7.
The Atmosphere is provided with an ashtray under the door. To empty the
appliance, you just have to remove the cap made of steel (in the centre of the
appliance) and to glide the ashes into the ashtray. Do not forget to replace the cap.
In case of a glass replacement:
Remove the screws that retain the glasses and then, the fragments of glasses. Check if the
seal cords are damaged.
If so, replace them by a ½ inch ceramics cord and replace the broken glasses by
VITROCERAMICS glasses of 5mm.
Cut the glass edge 3mm smaller on each side, so that the fiberglass cord can be slipped on
the edge of the glass at the time of its installation. Fix the glass by screwing it.
Contact your retailer to obtain any information you might need for the replacement of the
glasses.
DO NOT USE SUBSTITUTES.
