5. MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

ATTENTION!
All cleaning of all parts must be carried out with the
stove completely cold and unplugged.
The stove does not need much maintenance if used
with certified quality pellets. The necessity for
maintenance increases with use and depending on
the performance requested of it.

CLEANING TO BE PERFORMED BY THE USER

5.1.1.

Cleaning prior to each lighting

Clean the grate with a steel brush, removing any incrustation which could
obstruct the passage of air.
Remember that only a clean, neat grate can ensure
proper operation of your pellet stove.
A simple visual check, carried out daily, will reveal
whether the grate is in good working order.
For good cleaning of the grate, pull it completely out of its housing and
thoroughly clean the grate and holes on the bottom. If you use good-
quality pellets, you will normally only need to use a paintbrush to
restore the perfect condition of the component. For tough incrustations,
use the steel tool provided with the stove and a steel brush.
5.1.2.

Check every 2/3 days

Clean and empty the ash drawers, watching out for hot ash.
Only if the ash is completely cold, it is possible to use a vacuum
cleaner to remove it. Use a drum-type vacuum cleaner that is suitable
for picking up particles of a certain size.
Experience, and the quality of the pellets used, will determine the
frequency of cleaning.
It is however advisable not to let it exceed 2 or 3 days.
When the job is completed, re-close the ash drawers, making sure that
they are properly shut.
5.1.3.

Cleaning the glass

For cleaning the ceramic glass, the use of a dry brush is recommended,
or if it is very dirty, the special spray detergent, applying a small
quantity then cleaning with a cloth.
ATTENTION!
Do not spray the product on the painted parts or on
the gaskets of the door (ceramic fibre cord)
