6. MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
CAUTION!
All the cleaning operations of all parts should be
performed with the stove completely cold.
6.1.
CLEANING UNDER THE USER'S
RESPONSIBILITY
6.1.1.
Cleaning the glazing
To clean the glazing, you may use specific products (see our price list),
a cloth dipped in water and ammonia solution or a little white ash and a
sheet of newspaper. Any soot build-up and dirt will prolong the glazing
cleaning time.
CAUTION!
Do not spray the cleaner onto the painted parts or
onto the seals of the door (ceramic fibre cord)
The glass ceramic installed on MCZ products have a heat
resistance of approximately 750 °C and are tested and
checked prior to and after assembly to check for any cracks,
bubbles and swelling.
Despite the high resistance to temperatures, the glazing is
nonetheless a fragile element and so it is advisable to handle
the door carefully without slamming it or forcing it open or
shut. Since it is not a flexible element, the glazing may
break.
In addition, this type of glazing does not shatter or burst and
should it break, for the above reasons, only a crack will form.
6.1.2.
Cleaning the upper Calorite deflectors
They require no special care. After prolonged usage, the efficient yet
porous material used to make the internal deflectors of the combustion
chamber wears and may get damaged. They will need to be replaced
only when their thickness is halved or they break.
6.1.3.
Ash removal
This task must be performed with the stove turned off; we recommend
you clean the ash tray thoroughly to ensure correct combustion.
Open the door and remove the ash tray as shown in figure 7.
Hot ashes must not be stored outside unsupervised or thrown
into the rubbish bin. Allow it to cool in the open air in a metal
container
.
6.1.4.
Cleaning stainless and matt steel surfaces
Usually these surfaces do not need any special treatment and avoiding
cleaning them with abrasive materials is sufficient. For stainless and
matt steel surfaces, we recommend you clean these with a paper towel
