Maintenance Instructions

ASH DISPOSAL
During constant periods of use ashes must be periodically removed from the appliance to prevent a build-
up which will affect the performance and limit the fuel load capacity.
Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight fitting lid. The closed container of ashes should
be stored on a non-combustible floor or on the ground, well away from any combustible material, pending
final disposal. If the ashes are to be disposed of by burial in soil or otherwise locally dispersed, they
should be retained in the closed container until all cinders have thoroughly cooled. Other waste must not
be placed in this container.
BRASS CLEANING
Your Lopi Flex-95 may come with a solid brass door, ashlip trim and panel trim, which will require periodic
attention to retain its luster. Use a non-abrasive polish, such as "FLITZ" on the solid brass door and clean
it only when it is cool. A suitable polish is available at your dealer. The brass ashlip and panel trim
should only be cleaned with soap and water. The use of ANY type of brass polish will damage the finish.
GLASS CLEANING
Clean the glass only when the appliance is cool, using a non-abrasive cleaner. If glass cracks or breaks,
let the appliance cool before replacing it. DO NOT OPERATE THE APPLIANCE WITH BROKEN OR
MISSING GLASS. IF THE GLASS DOES BREAK, FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS IN THE SECTION TITLED
"REPLACEMENT PARTS AND REMOVAL INSTRUCTIONS" FOR REPLACING THE GLASS.
