Grills, oven bottom part and steel cooking surface
Clean the grills and the oven bottom part with a brush and mild soap (Figure 1 (E) (F)). They are
made of stainless steal and can go in the dishwasher.
To clean the steel cooking surface, wipe it with a soft and damp cloth. Do not clean the surface
when it is hot. If rust or scratches appear, follow the instructions in section
Painting" to repair the surface.
It is possible to remove the piece from the bottom of the oven for better cleaning.

Cleaning and Painting
Painted surfaces can be wiped down with a soft, damp cloth. If the paint is scratched or
damaged, it is possible to repaint the heater with a heat-resistant paint. Do not clean or
paint the appliance when it is hot. Before painting, the surface should be sanded lightly with
sandpaper and then wiped off to remove dust. Apply two thin layers of paint.
6.5
Refractory Materials and Baffle
Inspect the firebricks or the refractory panels and the baffle for damage periodically and replace
anything that is broken.
Operation of the heater with a cracked or missing baffle may cause unsafe temperatures
and hazardous conditions and will void the warranty.
6.6
Glasses
The cookstove has two glasses to maintain. The combustion chamber glass has a gasket while
the oven does not.
6.6.1 Cleaning
Under normal conditions, the door glass should stay relatively clear. If the firewood is dry enough
and the operating instructions in this guide are followed, a whitish, dusty deposit will form on the
inner surface of the glass after a week or so of use. This is normal and can be easily removed
when the heater is cold by wiping with a damp cloth or paper towel and then drying.
