Cleaning and care

Wood stove and chimney must be inspected by a chimney sweep annually. The stove
must be cold during cleaning and care
If the glass is sooty:
• Clean the glass regularly and only when the stove is cold, otherwise the soot will
stick.
• Moisten a piece of paper or newspaper, dip it in the ash, and rub the sooty glass.
• Afterwards, rub with a piece of paper and the glass will become clean.
• Alternatively, you can use glass polish, which you can obtain from your RAIS dealer.
Clean the exterior with a soft dry cloth or a soft brush.
Prior to a new heating season, check the chimney and smoke gas connector for block-
age.
Inspect the furnace interior and exterior for damage, especially the gasket and the heat
insulating plates (vermiculite).

Maintenance/spare parts

Moving parts are particularly worn by frequent use. Door sealings are also wear parts.
Only use original spare parts.
We recommend service performed by your dealer after
completion of a heating period.
Combustion chamber lining
The combustion chamber lining protects the stove body against the heat from the fire
Temperature fluctuations may result in cracks in the lining plates, which, however, do
not affect the stove's performance. They need not be replaced unless long-term use
causes them to crumble.
Combustion chamber lining plates require only inserting into the stove, and can be
easily replaced by your dealer or yourself.

Moving parts

Door hinges and door lock should be lubricated as needed.
We recommend to use our lubricating spray exclusively, as the use of other products
can lead to the formation of odours and residues.
Contact your dealer to obtain the lubricant.

Cleaning the combustion chamber:

Pull the ash pan out of the stove as needed and empty ashes into a non-flammable
container until they have cooled. You can dispose of ash together with your regular
household waste.
REMEMBER!
• Never remove all ashes from the combustion chamber
• wood burns best on a layer of ash.
