maintenance work is performed� Ensure that you do not vacuum
into the combustion air line during heating operation during any
cleaning (vacuuming)� You could vacuum out embers – FIRE RISK!

The stove should be cleaned thoroughly prior to the start of the
heating season to prevent excess odour�
The frequency with which the stove requires cleaning and the
maintenance intervals depend on the fuel you use� High moisture

be removed with a special cleaner (free from corrosive acids and
