5.2 REMOVING ASHES
Ashes can stay very hot for a long period of time. Sometimes even for more days. Therefore, before
disposingofyourashesinaregularbin,alwaysrstputtheminanemptyzincbinandthrowwaterover
them so that they are completely wet. Only then dipsose of them in your regular bin.
6. MAINTENANCE TIPS
THE ITEMS MENTIONED BELOW ARE ALSO EXPLAINED THROUGH VIDEOS ON WWW.OFYR.COM.
6.1 THE COOKING PLATE
• The cooking plate is made of black steel and will corrode if oil is not properly baked into it.
Once the oil has properly been baked in, only minor corrosion will develop. When the cooking
  plateisnotusedforlongerperiodsoftime,werecommendtreatingitwithoilevery15-30days.
The amount of corrosion does very much depend on the climate. Salty, humid air is obviously
much worse than dry air. Because treating a cold cooking plate with cooking oil does not work
  tooeasily,usingaspraybottlewithpancoatingismoreecient.
• If you use your OFYR
®
Cooking Unit a lot, a smooth layer of carbon residue will build up
on the cooking plate, making it extra smooth and extra comfortable to use. From time to
  time,thislayermightcomeohereandthere.Whenyouspotitchippinginplaces,
  simplyscrapeothechipsusingthespatula,andrubonnewoil.Thecarbonresidue 
layer will gradually renew itself this way.
6.2 THE CONE
• To prevent the cone from getting clogged, the ashes need to be removed after every use.
• If wed ash is left for a too long period in
the cone or if the OFYR Cooking Unit is in a
very wet or salty region, steel chips may
form on both the inside and outside of the
Corten steel cones. These chips can easily
be removed with the spatula. The video
“Maintenance of the OFYR Corten
Cone” clearly shows how to proceed.
