• Frequency: When ash is within 1-3/4 in. (44mm) of firebox
lip
• By: Homeowner
Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight
fitting lid. The closed container of ashes should be placed
on a non-combustible floor or on the ground, well away
from all combustible materials, pending final disposal. If
the ashes are disposed of by burial in soil or otherwise
locally dispersed, they should be retained in the closed
container until all cinders have thoroughly cooled.
WARNING
Fire Risk.
Disposal of Ashes
• Ashes should be placed in metal container with tight fitting lid.
• Do not place metal container on combustible surface.
• Ashes should be retained in closed container until all cinders
have thoroughly cooled.
4. Glass Cleaning
• Frequency: As desired
• By: Homeowner
Clean glass with a non-abrasive glass cleaner. Abrasive
cleaners may scratch and cause glass to crack.
deposits on the glass are not very heavy, normal glass
cleaners work well. Heavier deposits may be removed by
using a damp cloth dipped in wood ashes or by using a
commercially available oven cleaner.
After using an oven cleaner, it is advisable to remove any
residue with a glass cleaner or soap and water.
cleaner left on during the next firing can permanently stain
the glass and damage the finish on metal surfaces.
A portion of the combustion air entering the firebox is deflected
down over the inside of the door glass. This air flow "washes"
the glass, helping to keep smoke from adhering to its surface.
When operated at a low burn rate, less air will be flowing over
the glass and the smokey, relatively cool condition of a low
fire will cause the glass to become coated.
Operating the appliance with the Burn Rate Air Control and
Start-Up Air Control all the way open for 30-45 minutes should
remove the built up coating.
CAUTION
• Do not use polishes with abrasives. It will scratch surfaces.
