care of glass

WARNING
!
• Do not clean glass when hot! Do not use abrasive cleaners to clean glass.
If the glass is not kept clean, permanent discolouration and/or
blemishes may result. Normally a hot fi re will clean the glass. The
most common reasons for dirty glass include:
• Not using suffi cient fuel to get the appliance thoroughly hot.
• Using green or wet wood.
• Closing the draft so far that there is insuffi cient air for complete
combustion.
If it is necessary to clean the glass, buff lightly with a clean dry cloth and non-abrasive cleaner. Clean the glass
after the fi rst 10 hours of operation with a recommended appliance glass cleaner. Thereafter, clean as required.
The glass is very strong, but do not let burning fuel rest or fall against it and always close the door gently.
NEVER FORCE OR SLAM IT SHUT!
Do not operate the appliance with broken glass, as leakage of fl ue gases may result.
Contact your local authorized dealer/distributor for complete cleaning instructions.
If the glass should ever crack or break while the fi re is burning, do not open the door until the fi re is out. Do not
operate the appliance until the glass has been replaced. Contact your local authorized dealer/distributor for
replacement parts. DO NOT SUBSTITUTE MATERIALS.

care of catalyst

WARNING
!
• This wood heater contains a catalytic combustor, requiring periodic replacement and regular inspection for
proper operation. It is against United States Federal regulations to operate this wood heater in a manner
inconsistent with operating instructions in this manual. This includes the removal or deactivation of the catalytic
element.
Periodic inspection of the catalytic combustor is needed to ensure proper functioning of the appliance and also to
determine when replacement is required. Creosote buildup, increase in emissions and a loss of heat effi ciency will
result from a non-functioning combustor appliance.
Catalytic combustors should remain active under normal operating conditions for a period of six to ten years. This
will be determined by the quality and the amount of wood burned.

9.10 care of plated parts

If the appliance is equipped with plated parts, you must clean fi ngerprints or other marks from the plated surfaces
before operating the appliance for the fi rst time. Use an ammonia-free or vinegar-based cleaner and a towel
to clean. If not cleaned properly before operating for the fi rst time, the marks can cause permanent blemishes
on the plating. After the plating is cured, the fi ngerprints and oils will not affect the fi nish and little maintenance
is required, just wipe clean as needed. Prolonged high temperature burning with the door ajar may cause
discolouration on plated parts.
note:
The protective wrap on plated parts is best removed when the assembly is at room temperature but this can
be improved if the assembly is warmed (i.e. using a hair dryer or similar heat source).
