stove there are two access covers (see B and C on the drawing to the right) that can be removed by
unscrewing the two 5/32‘‘ allen head screws. Insert a cleaning brush in the openings to loosen any
ash buildup and use a vacuum cleaner to remove the loosed ash. Reinstall the covers when
cleaning is complete. There are also two more access holes located behind the ash drawer.

CLEANING THE CONVECTION BLOWER
To clean the convention blower, remove the right side door (see the following page). Disconnect
the stove power cord from the electrical outlet. Remove the two screws (A in the drawing to the
right) securing the blower to the blower duct. Slide the blower to the rear disengaging it from the
blower duct. A vacuum can be used to remove any dust accumulation on the blower‘s blades or
inside the blower duct. Caution should be used not to damage the blower‘s blades during cleaning.
Note that future models of the stove may be built so that the screws A may just need to be
loosened rather than removed to remove the blower. To reinstall the blower, slide the blower back
into the retaining lip B and reinstall screws A.
