Cleaning and maintenance
a)
Before cleaning, replacing accessories, and when the machine is not in use,
turn it off, unplug it and cool it down.
Wait until the rotating parts stop.
•
b)
Use only non-corrosive cleaning agents for cleaning the surfaces.
c)
Do not spray the unit with a stream of water or immerse it in water.
d)
Make sure that no water enters through the ventilation openings in the casing.
e)
Clean the ventilation openings with a brush and compressed air.
f)
Perform regular inspections of the unit checking technical fitness and any
damages.
g)
Do not leave the batteries in the remote control when it will not be used for a
long time.
h)
Do not clean the device with acidic substances, medical products, thinners,
fuel, oil or other chemicals as this may damage the device.
i)
The frequency of cleaning the stove depends mainly on the ash content in the
pellets, so it is recommended to use pellets with as little ash as possible. It
which will extend the cleaning intervals of the device.
j)
Contaminants present in each pellet form slag during combustion. It blocks the
flow of air to the hearth, so the stove should be checked daily for holes blocked
with slag. If necessary, remove it by removing the hearth when the stove is
cold.
k)
Insufficient amount of air in the combustion process (incomplete combustion),
frequent startups/shutdowns lead to the formation of soot, which
accumulates on the glass, the heat exchanger and the exhaust pipe. Therefore,
clean the combustion chamber regularly by removing ash and other impurities
from its interior. Check the stove for soot at least once a month and remove it
if necessary
l)
Depending on the quality of the pellets, some ash and some tar may
accumulate in the exhaust pipe. It is recommended to inspect and, if
temperature as too
low and there is no
ignition in the hearth
or the ignition is
turned off during
operation.
• Too small
amount of
pellets in the
combustion
chamber, the
fire is too low
and the
temperature
in the furnace
is too low.
