When the fire has burned to embers again (no flames), start again as
previously described.
7.2 Ash
Ash should always be present in the firebox. A fire burns best on a bed of ash.
Embers collect more quickly through the ash and glow longer. Lotus
recommends removing the ash at the earliest after using the stove 10 times.
The ash can be disposed of in a dustbin. Always ensure that there are no
embers in the ash.
8 Useful tips
8.1 Stove cleaning
All Lotus stoves are provided with a heat-resistant coating at the factory. When
used for the first time, a slight odour can occur due to the coating. Ensure that
the room is well ventilated.
8.2 Maintaining the stove
Seals on doors and glass panels are subject to wear especially due to the heat.
Lotus recommends that seals be checked regularly and replaced 1x annually, if
necessary by your dealer. (Seals are wearing parts and are not covered by the
warranty).
