10. CLEANING AND MAINTENACE
This appliance should be inspected and serviced once a year by a qualified, competent and registered person.
The inspection and maintenance must at least ensure that the appliance is working correctly and safely.
It is advisable to clean the appliance of any dust and debris before regularly during the heating season and
especially if the appliance has not been used for some time. This can be done with a soft brush and a vacuum
cleaner or a damp cloth and if required a non-abrasive cleaning agent. Do not use corrosive or abrasive
substances to clean the appliance.
The Concentric flue system must be inspected and cleaned every 2 years.
Also control of:
1 Gas tightness of gas fire and concentric flue system.
2 The correct operation of the gas control and the ignition of the burner.
11.1 Anti Reflective glass; AR glass cleaning instructions. (see APPENDIX5)
General:
AR glass is a non-reflective ceramic glass. This glass is provided with a AR-coating on both sides of the
glass. The anti-reflection coating gives a reduction in the reflection up to a minimal shine. The coating
layers are more sensitive than the known ceramic glass, hence it is necessary to follow special cleaning
procedures.
Important:
don't use any of the following cleaning materials:
Hard (abrasive) sponges, steel wool, abrasives and cleaners with ammonia or acid (citric acid as well)
Paper towels, ceramic cook top cleaner.
Only use: water or suitable detergents. We advise our Thermocet cleaner.
Procedure:
* Wear soft cotton gloves at all times.
* The rubber suction cup to take out the glass must be clean. (Scratch hazard).
* Release the glass retaining strips and take the glass out of the appliance.
* place the glass on a stable soft surface.
* Use a soft (microfiber) cloth / soft sponge.
* clean the glass with the special cleaner and or water.
* Make sure there is no residue, such as fingerprints, left behind.
* Replace the glass and tighten the glass retaining strips.
* double check for residue on the outside of the glass, also left behind by the suction cup.
Important:
After the first use the inside of the pane will have a white haze, it is necessary to remove
the white haze immediately after the first use, when the appliance has cooled.
The higher the frequency of use more frequent cleaning might be needed. Not timely cleaning of the
glass can cause it to go dull and will be difficult to clean.
Information:
if an appliance with AR glass is placed near windows, or if there is a lot of light on the glass
it is possible to detect reflection of colours. For example, a red sofa, white table or floor the stove can
cause the glass to reflect these colours.
As the glass is cleaned more often or with not accepted products it will lose some of the AR effect.
