Cleaning the glass
The glass is self-cleaning, therefore while the stove is in operation, a flow of air runs along the surface
of the glass keeping ash and dirt away. However, a greyish patina will form after a few hours and this
must be cleaned once the stove has been turned off. The glass must be cleaned only when the stove
is cold, using a cotton duster, kitchen paper, newspaper or window-cleaner. Sometimes it is best to
dirty the duster slightly with ash from the stove itself to create a slightly abrasive action with which to
remove the ash from the glass.
N.B. Do not attempt to light the stove if the glass is broken.
4.6
Cleaning the Flue
The flue will require cleaning only once each winter providing that the correct fuel is used. You should
arrange for this when booking your annual service with your local Nature's Flame service agent. Use
a drum type vacuum cleaner only.

Access to the inspection hatches for cleaning the smoke
Remove the pellet heater and release the two screws that secure the hatches to the body of the pellet
heater. Clean the inside using a drum type vacuum cleaner.
