6. FAULTS
5. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
The appliance must be cleaned and checked annually by an
authorized installer. This applies for the Direct-vent system as wel.
Check that:
- the gas supply, combustion chamber and flue gas vent systems are
all airtight;
- the regulator and the thermocouple circuit function properly and
that the burner ignites properly.
Clean (if necessary):
- the pilot system;
- the burner;
- the combustion chamber;
- the flue gas exhaust.
5.1 CLEANING THE GLASS
Depending on the intensity of use, a layer may in time form on the
glass. This layer can be removed with a special glass cleaner or
ceramic cook-top cleaner. Follow the instructions on the package. We
advise you to have the appliance cleaned by an authorised installer.
An improperly working flue and logs in the wrong positions will cause
the glass to become dirtier.
5.2 CARE OF THE COATED PARTS AND CERAMICS
Polish the coated finish with a soft duster. Remove any stains using a
damp cloth or lukewarm water once the fireplace has cooled down.
Never use scouring agents, petrol, paraffin or other solvents to clean
the fireplace
5.3 CARE OF THE SOAPSTONE
Use soap and water to remove any dirt or grease from the soapstone
(remove the stones from the fireplace first). Minor scratches can be
removed using fine sandpaper (240 grey waterproof ).
