12. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Basic information

Note

Your stove must be switched off and cooled before any maintenance work is

performed. Ensure that you do not vacuum into the combustion air line during

heating operation during any cleaning (vacuuming). You could vacuum out

embers – FIRE RISK!

Note

SERVICE appears in the display after consumption of 700 kg pellets. Cleaning

and maintenance is to be performed.

This message can be acknowledged by pressing ENTER and operation can

be continued. The number of SERVICE messages is stored in the background.

Note

Only work on the unit when the mains plug has been disconnected.

The frequency with which the stove requires cleaning and the maintenance

intervals depend on the fuel you use. High moisture content, ash, dust and chips

may more than double the maintenance required. We would like to again point

out that only tested and recommended pellets or logs may be used as fuel.

Tip

wood as fertiliser - The mineral content of the wood remains in the combustion

chamber as ash as a residue of the combustion. This is an excellent fertiliser

for all plants in the garden; it is a completely natural product. The ash should

be stored ﬁrst and extinguished with water.

Note

Ash may contain embers – only place ash in sheet steel containers.

Open the combustion chamber door

To open or close the combustion chamber door use the included key. This key

can also be stored on the back of the stove.

Cleaning of the burn pot - daily

Make sure that the air vents are not blocked with ash or clinker. Remove the

clinker using the supplied wire brush and vacuum the burn pot.

Do not damage the ignition when cleaning with a wire brush.

Note

Clean the ﬁre trough regularly. Only clean when cold, when embers are

extinguished!

Note

If the stove is heated in continous operation, it must be cleaned 2x within 24

hours. BACK FIRE HAZARD!

Empty the ash drawer

Empty the ash drawer regularly. The ash drawer is simply pulled forward with

the combustion chamber door open
