01 CORROSION
With the exception of the cooking plate, adjustable feet, hinges, screws, and the magnets underneath the wooden
planks, all steel elements of the OFYR
corrodes very rapidly, and it is precisely this corrosion that protects it against rust perforation. If you allow nature
to take its course, it will take 6-12 months for these Corten steel elements to corrode, depending on their location
and the humidity level. Unlike many manufacturers of Corten steel products, we provide buyers of our products
with an additional service by making sure that the corrosion process has already started by the time our products
are delivered. Depending on their location and the humidity level, it will take another 3-6 months for this superficial
corrosion to turn into a proper layer of corrosion. However, this does not guarantee an entirely smooth layer of
corrosion. Therefore, any Corten steel elements that are less corroded than others upon delivery are not eligible
for replacement. After all, they will corrode naturally over time under influence of the weather. While the corrosion
is still superficial, the Corten steel elements may cause orange stains on clothes, skin, and the surface they stand
on. When it rains, corrosive water may also run off these elements, which may permanently stain light-toned stone
or wooden surfaces. Under normal circumstances, the Corten steel will gradually develop a smooth, dark brown
layer of corrosion that will not chip. However, this layer may chip in locations near the sea or the shore due to the
high levels of salinity in such locations. The chipping will not cause any damage, but the chipped corrosion must be
removed to prevent corrosion from forming on the surface the OFYR
liabilty for any damage resulting from the corrosion of our products.
02 WOODEN BOARDS
Some OFYR products include wooden boards to be used as seating or work surface. (See fig. 8) None of those

should be left outside for extended periods of time. Humid weather may cause them to warp and or crack.
We therefore recommend that you store these boards inside in a dry place after each use. We do not recommend
leaving them outside at night, as the weather tends to be humid then. The work surfaces can be used as cutting

magnetic feet and those that come with the OFYR

for use on the OFYR

We do not acept liability for any damage resulting from incorrect
use of wooden boards. Please note that you should not place OFYR
products with wooden elements directly next to any heat source,
including any of our cooking units, because the heat may cause
damage to the wood or cause it to warp.
