Maintenance - Cleaning Glass on View Door
The glass used in your stove is manufactured to exact standards to withstand the high heat of the re, but like all glass, it
must be treated with common sense and care. Never abuse the glass by slamming the door shut or striking the glass with
a heavy object. If the glass is broken or damaged, do not operate the stove until it has been replaced.

Glass - Cleaning
Sometimesitwillbenecessarytocleanaccumulatedashfromtheglasssurface;allowingthisashtoremainontheglass
forlongperiodscanresultin“etching”duetotheacidityoftheash.Nevercleantheglasswhileitishot,anddo not use
abrasivesubstances.Washthesurfacewithcoolwater,andrinsethoroughly.Youmaywishtouseanon-abrasivecleaner
specicallydesignedforuseonstoveglass.Inanycase,drythoroughlybeforerelightingyourstove.
Disposal of ashes:Ashesshouldbeplacedinametalcontainerwithatightttinglid.Theclosedcontainerofashesshould
beplacedonanon-combustibleoororontheground,wellawayfromallcombustiblematerials,pendingnaldisposal.If
theashesaredisposedofbyburialinsoilorotherwiselocallydispersed,theyshouldberetainedintheclosedcontainer
untilallcindershavethoroughlycooled.
Soot and y ash: Formation andneedfor removal.Theproductsof combustioncontainsmall particlesofyash.The
yashwillcollectintheexhaustventingsystemandwillrestricttheowoftheuegases.Pelletfuelshavedifferentash
contentsdepending on what type of wood has been used to make the pellets. We recommend to clean the system
after approximately 1 ton of pellets have been burned and judge from that how often the stove should be cleaned,
remember if you change pellets it may change how often you have to clean your stove.
Whenburningwoodslowly,thepotentialexistsforcreosotetoform.Theventingsystemshouldbeinspectedperiodically
throughouttheheatingseasontodetermineifacreosotebuilduphasoccurred.Ifasignicantlayerofcreosotehasaccumulated
(3mmormore),itshouldberemovedtoreducetheriskofachimneyre.Ifareoccurs,calltheredepartment,shutdown
the stove, and evacuate the residence. Before using the appliance, have the venting system thoroughly inspected and
replaceanydamagedcomponents.
