Cleaning the glass
The glass is a self cleaning type, therefore, while the pellet insert is working, a veil of air is blown across
its surface to remove ash and dirt; nevertheless over a period of several hours, a greyish patina tends to
form which should be cleaned when the pellet insert is next shut down. How dirty the glass becomes
also depends on the quality and quantity of pellets used.
Cleaning the glass should be done when the pellet insert is cold with products recommended and
tested by our company.
When performing this operation, always check that the grey seal around the glass is in a good state;
failure to check the efciency of this gasket can compromise the function of the pellet insert.
Poor quality pellets can, in any case, cause the glass to become dirty.
If the glass is broken, do not attempt to light the pellet insert.
Cleaning the surfaces
To clean the surfaces, use a rag dampened with water or with water and a neutral detergent.
Cleaning the metal parts
To clean the metal parts of the pellet insert, use a soft cloth dampened with water.
Never clean the metal parts with alcohol, thinners, petrol, acetone or other degreasing substances. If
such substances are used, our company declines any responsibility.
Eventual variations in the colour of the metal parts can be caused by an incorrect use of the pellet insert.
The use of aggressive detergents or thinners can damage the surfaces of the
pellet insert. Before using any detergent it is advisable to try it on a small
section out of sight or contact the Authorized Assistance Centre for information
regarding the product.
It is necessary to daily clean the brazier and often clean the ash box.
The lack of cleanliness can prevent the starting of the pellet insert, causing
damages to the pellet insert itself and to the environment (possible emission of
unbrunt material and soot).
Do not re-use the pellet possibly remained in the brazier due to no starting-up.
Pict. 14: cleaning the ash box
Ash box
Open the door, turn the two fastening knobs and
remove the tray. Remove all the ash fallen into the
tray using a fan. You can clean the tray more or less
frequently according to the quantity of pellets you
use (Pict. 14).
