OWNER GUIDE
CLEANING YOUR FIRE
To maintain the high performance and quality finish of your fire please follow these
guidelines:
Before attempting to clean the fire, please remember to turn off the fire and wait for
the appliance to cool. The fire will retain heat for some time before cleaning can
begin.
If any pieces of debris are found in the firebox, have the chimney inspected before
further use.
Metal parts.
Clean the metal parts with a slightly damp cloth and then dry.
-
Do not use abrasive cleaners as these will scratch the fire surface.
-
Ceramic fuel effect pieces and burner compartment walls.
This product uses fuel effect pieces and burner compartment walls containing
Refractory Ceramic Fibres (RCF), which are man-made vitreous silicate fibres.
Excessive exposure to this material may cause irritation to eyes, skin and
respiratory tract. Consequently, it is important to take care when handling these
articles to ensure that the release of dust is kept to a minimum.
Light coatings of soot will usually be burnt off during the normal operation of the fire.
-
Should any soot accumulation become excessive, the fuel effect pieces and walls
should be removed from the fire for cleaning.
Cleaning should be carried out in a well ventilated area or in the open air by gently
-
brushing with the pieces held away from your face so that you avoid inhaling the
dust.
We do not recommend the use of a normal domestic vacuum cleaner which may
-
blow dust back into the air.
We suggest that you remove the ceramic fuel effect pieces in the reverse order to
-
that shown in the fuel bed refitting instructions.
Burner.
Remove any deposits of soot or other foreign matter from the surface of the burner
with a dry soft brush. Be careful not to brush any particles into the open slots.
Remove any particles from the slots with a vacuum cleaner fitted with a soft brush
attachment. Do not poke wire, etc. into the slots in the burner.
