DISPOSAL OF ASHES

ASHES SHOULD BE PLACED IN A METAL CONTAINER WITH A TIGHTFITTING LID.
THE CLOSED CONTAINER OF ASHES SHOULD BE PLACED ON A NONCOMBUSTIBLE
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 EMBERS HAVE THOROUGHLY COOLED. OTHER WASTE
SHALL NOT BE PLACED IN THIS CONTAINER.
The firebox lining is made out of vermiculite slab insulation (skamol), which protects
the outer steel plates from overheating. With time small cracks might appear; this is
normal. If it breaks however, it must be replaced. Vermiculite is a porous, high-insu-
lated material and must therefore be handled with care.
