With reference to the safety standards in force overseeing electrical appliances, in the instance of all installation, maintenance or intervention
operations, which involve accessing the inside of the cladding or smoke box, you must seek the assistance of a Technical Support Centre or qualied
personnel.
Maintenance is to be considered compulsory for correct and efcient stove operation. If maintenance is not carried out with the recommended
frequency stove performance could suffer.
The manufacturer will not be responsible for stove deterioration or malfunction if due to poor maintenance.
All maintenance work (cleaning, any replacements etc.) must be carried out when the stove is shutdown and cold and with the power cable
disconnected.
The frequency of interventions noted below are merely indicative.
For the disposal of ashes please refer to the section “DISPOSAL OF ASH”.
Do not use any material that could scratch or spoil the glass, as scratches may develop into cracks or breaks; under no circumstances use abrasive
substance.
a The frequency of cleaning depends on how much the stove is used and the quality of the fuel. DT2010057-04
