Maintenance

It takes little effort to keep your stove in good condition.
Regularly check whether the sealing cord still closes the doors tightly enough.
The painted or enamelled cast iron mantle can be cleaned with a moist, soft cloth,
when it is almo st cold.
Minor paint damage can be touched up with a can of spray paint. Your dealer can
supply you with the correct spray product. For enamel damage, small repair kits of
appropriate colour are available from your dealer. Make sure no aggressive, acid
products get in touch with enamelled parts.
During the first use after repainting your unit might give off some slight odour.
However, this will disappear quickly.
The glass can be cleaned with a number of glass cleaning products available from
your dealer. Your installer can also supply you with appropriate products. However,
never use abrasive or corrosive cleaning products.
To clean the air ducts, you may remove the top plate; it lies loosely on the stove and
is not attached with screws or bolts.
At the end of the heating season, seal off the chimney with a ball of paper. You can
then thoroughly clean the stove on the inside.
If necessary, replace the sealing ropes and use fire cement to fill up possible leaks.
Remove the fire plate for better and mo re thorough cleaning.
You should have your chimney swept by an expert before the heating season begins.
It is also useful to check the chimney for soot during the heating season and to
check for blockage of the chimney flue prior to re-lighting after a prolonged shut
down period. Checking and maintaining the chimney is a statutory requirement.
When all of the above advice is heeded, you will be able to fully enjoy your stove.
