CLEANING YOUR FIRE
Ensure that the fire is cold before undertaking any cleaning. Remember the heat is
retained for some time after the fire is switched off. In normal use, your fire requires only
minimal cleaning. Soot can form on the coals and / or pebbles and can easily be
removed by lifting the relevant pieces from the fire and cleaning with a soft brush.
If it is necessary to remove all coals / pebbles for cleaning then any soot or debris should
be removed from the ceramic elements and from the burners. A vacuum cleaner must not
be used on the ceramic pieces.
If large pieces of debris are found in the fire - sufficient to alter the appearance or
operation of the appliance - the fan unit should be checked and inspected and the
appliance serviced before further use.
In any event, the flue and fan system should be checked annually to ensure continued
clearance of combustion products and that there is no excessive build up of soot.
The decorative trim on the front of the fire is held in place with magnets. Should you wish
to clean the trim, simply pull it off of the fire, clean using a slightly dampened cloth and
then replace, ensuring that one magnet is positioned in each corner. The Brass &
Chrome trims have a lacquered finish. - Do not use metal polishes to clean.
ASSEMBLING THE FIRE AND LAYING CERAMICS COALS / PEBBLES
When laying the ceramics & coals / pebbles on the burner, closely follow the instructions
found on pages 13 - 15 of these instructions. Failure to do so will possibly cause the
appliance to burn incorrectly giving rise to sooting and poor heat output.
