6. MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
ATTENTION!
All cleaning operations of all parts should be
conducted with the stove cold.
6.1.
CLEANING TO BE PERFORMED BY THE USER
6.1.1.
Cleaning the glass
Specific products can be used to clean the glass (see our pricelist), a
cloth dampened with water and ammonia or a bit of white ash and a
newspaper. Any soot and dirt accumulations take longer to clean.
ATTENTION!
Do not spray the product on the painted parts or on
the gaskets of the door (ceramic fibre cord)
The ceramic glass installed on MCZ products are resistant to
heat up to 750°C and are tested and inspected before and
after assembly to check for cracks, bubbles and holes.
Glass, although highly resistant to temperatures, is a fragile
element and therefore the door should be handled with care
without slamming or forcing it. Glass, since it is not elastic,
can break.
This type of glass does not burst or shatter but if it should
break, due to the above, it will only crack.
6.1.2.
Cleaning upper calorite deflectors
They do not require particular care. With prolonged use, however, the
effective but porous material of which the deflectors inside the firebox
are made, wears out or can get damaged. Only when their thickness is
reduced by half or they break is it necessary to replace them.
6.1.3.
Cleaning out the ashes
This operation should be performed with the stove off. Adequate ash
drawer cleaning is also recommended for correct combustion.
Ashes which are still hot must not be dumped outside in an
uncontrolled manner or put in the dustbin. Leave them to cool
down in the open air in a metal container.
6.1.4.
Cleaning of stainless steel and satin-finish surfaces
Normally these surfaces do not need to be treated, but if they do,
avoid cleaning them with abrasive materials. For surfaces in stainless
and satin brushed steel we recommend cleaning with a paper towel or a
clean dry cloth moistened with a detergent based on non-ionic
surfactants ( < 5%). A spray glass cleaner may be used.
