To maintain the high performance and quality finish of your Valor Fires appliance,

please follow these guidelines:

Before attempting to clean the fire, please remember to turn off the fire and wait for

the appliance to cool completely. 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.

Fascia and firefront - Clean the metal parts with a slightly damp cloth and then

dry. This may not work on fingerprints etc. In this case apply a very small amount of

'baby oil' to a lint free, non-abrasive cloth and wipe over the surface. Use a clean

cloth to wipe off the oil.

Ceramic fuel effect and rear wall.

This product uses fuel effect pieces and burner compartment rear wall

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 rear

wall 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 suggest that you remove the ceramic fuel effect pieces in the reverse order to

that shown in the ceramic fuel effect installer and owner guide.

Burner.

The burner surface can be carefully cleaned to remove any loose particles after

taking off the ceramic fuel effect pieces . Make sure that no particles are pushed into

the burner holes.
