will normally be burned off when the air wash vent is opened all the way and a fire is
burning briskly in the fireplace.
Good advice!
For normal cleaning, moisten a paper towel with warm water and add
some ash from the burn chamber. Rub it over the glass and then clean the glass with
clean water. Dry well. If it is necessary to clean the glass more thoroughly we
recommend using a glass cleaner (follow the instructions on the bottle).
3.3.2 External Surface Cleaning
The cast surface of the stove is painted with heat-resistant paint. It is best maintained
by simply vacuuming it with a soft brush attachment or wiping it down with a dry,
dust-free cloth.
If the stove is used too vigorously, the painted surface may assume a greyish tinge
over time, but the stove can easily be freshened up with spray paint, which is
available from your local retailer.
3.3.3 Gaskets
The gaskets in the door will wear out over time, and should be replaced as required in
order to prevent runaway combustion.
