Vii.- Safety - hergom Deva II 100 Instruction Book

Do not use the scouring pad on the stainless steel rim. Dry well.
3.- Stainless steel rim
There are a number of appropriate products on the market to preserve metal
components that will help you keep stainless steel looking like a mirror.
Avoid utensils that may scratch steel. For stainless steel to preserve its properties, its
surface must not be damaged.
4.- Ash
The special design of the combustion chamber and the use of refractory
materials provide maximum combustion efficiency and, consequently, the quantity of
ash produced is minimal.
This means that it is possible to light the cooker a number of times before having to
empty the ash pan.
When this operation is required, remove the grille and move the ash to the ash pan.
Empty the ash pan in a metal container and immediately remove from the house.
5.- Soot
The cover that has to be removed to clean soot is hidden behind the oven door.
This cover is used to clean soot that may have accumulated at the bottom of the
cooker.
A number of possible risks are present when operating your solid fuel cooker with fuel
of any brand.
The said risks can be minimised if the instructions and recommendations included in
this manual are followed.
Below, we shall recommend some rules and advice but, above all else, we recommend
common sense.
1. Keep any flammable material (curtains, clothes...) away from cooker, at a
minimum safety distance of 0.90 m.
2. Protect nearby furniture with heat resistant materials on the hob and smoke
outlet.
3. Leave a 30-40 mm. gap between furniture and the sides of the cooker for air
to flow.
4. Ash should be emptied into a metal container and immediately removed from
the house.
5. Do not use flammable liquids to light the cooker.
