6.2 Cleaning the surfaces
To clean the surfaces, use a rag dampened with water or with water and a neutral de-
tergent.
The use of aggressive detergents or thinners can damage the sur-
faces of the stove. Before using any detergent it is advisable to try
it on a small section out of sight or contact the Authorized Assi-
stance Centre for information regarding the product.
6.3 Cleaning the metal parts
To clean the metal parts of the stove, use a soft cloth dampened with water.
Never clean the metal parts with alcohol, thinners, petrol, acetone or other degreasing
substances. If such substances are used, our company declines any responsibility.
Eventual variations in the colour of the metal parts can be caused by an incorrect use
of the stove.
WARNING: it is necessary to clean the braizer and clean the ash box
every day and before every use. The cleaning should consist of the
complete removal of every residual. Periodically remove and empty the
cap of the inspection "T"pipe located behind the stove (pict.10 and 11).
The lack of cleanliness can prevent the starting of the stove, causing
damages to the stove itself and to the environment (possible emission
of unbrunt material and soot). Do not re-use the pellet possibly
ramained in the brazier due to no starting-up.

6.4 Cleaning the brazier and brazier support
When the ame assumes a red colour or seems weak, and is accompanied by black
smoke, this means that there are ash deposits or incrustations that do not permit the
correct functioning of the stove and that must be removed (Pict. 12).
Remove the brazier every day by simply raising it from its slot; then clean out the ashes
and eventual incrustations that may have formed, paying particular attention to liberating
the holes by using a pointed tool (not included with the stove)
This operation is made particularly necessary before every lighting the rst several times
and above all if using pellets that differ from those supplied by our company. The fre-
quency of this operation is determined by how frequently the stove is used and the
choice of pellets. It is also a good idea to check the brazier support, vacuuming the even-
tual ash present.

6.5 Daily cleaning
- Open the stove front door, remove the grate, the ashes-pan and the bottom of the
combustion chamber (Pic. 13-14)
- Extraction of the re protection: push the re protection upward to remove it from the
slot (Pic. 15).
- Now using a brush and a vacuum cleaner, clean top and bottom of the combustion
chamber by removing all ash which has built up inside the combustion chamber (Pic.
16).
- Reassemble everything in reverse order.

6.6 Cleaning the glass
The glass is a self cleaning type, therefore, while the stove is working, a veil of air is
blown across its surface to remove ash and dirt; nevertheless over a period of several
hours, a greyish patina tends to form which should be cleaned when the stove is next
shut down. How dirty the glass becomes also depends on the quality and quantity of
pellets used. Cleaning the glass should be done when the stove is cold with products
recommended and tested by our company.
When performing this operation, always check that the grey seal around the glass is in
a good state; failure to check the ef ciency of this gasket can compromise the function
of the stove. Poor quality pellets can, in any case, cause the glass to become dirty.
WARNING!
If the glass is broken, do not attempt to light the stove.
6.7 Cleaning the clearing system
Until a reasonable experience is acquired regarding the operating conditions, it is advi-
sable to perform this maintenance on at least a monthly basis.
• Remove the electrical feed cable;
• Remove the cap from the T-joint and proceed with the cleaning of the ducts. If neces-
sary, at least for the rst few times, call in quali ed personnel;
• Carefully clean the smoke discharge system: for this, contact a professional chimney
sweep;
• Once a year clean the dust, cobwebs, etc. from the zone behind the internal covering
panels, paying particular attention to the fans.
6.8 Cleaning the fans
The stove is furnished with fans (environmental and smoke) positioned at the rear and
below the stove. Eventual deposits of dust or ash on the blades of the fan can cause an
imbalance in the fans leading to noisy performance.
It is, therefore, necessary to clean the fans at least once a year.
Since said operation requires dismantling several parts of the stove, have the fans clea-
ned only by our Technical Assistance Centre.
6.9 Season end cleaning
At the end of the season, when the stove will not be used for some time, it is advisable
to perform a thorough and general cleaning:
• Remove all the pellets from the container and the screw feeder;
• Carefully clean the brazier, the brazier support, the combustion chamber and the ash
box.
