GENERAL
RECOMMENDATIONS
The appliance must be connected to the chimney and tested before the
material is cemented in. In order to ensure that the appliance functions
optimally do not put any inflammable materials in the immediate vicinity of
the stove. Insulating materials: it is preferable to use “high temperature”
materials. It is strongly advisable to position the chimney and to connect the
stove in such a way that no humidity or water can enter the stove. Humidity
and water are the biggest enemies of the Chamotflex in the appliance
because it can swell and burst after the fire has been lit.
Note:
If you leave the door open, little burning pieces of wood may be
projected onto the floor.

Besides regularly cleaning the window, you must have your chimney swept
at least once a year for optimal functioning of the Argento. (Not only is
this a legal requirement, but it is also meant for your own safety.).
A fire brick (Chamotte) can still work perfectly, even if it is cracked, but if
pieces are missing the brick must be replaced to effectively protect the
combustion chamber.
Remove the remainder of the ash in time, take the ash pan and remove a
great part of the ashes from the Argento. Note: Never remove all the
ashes because a fire always burns better with its own ashes.
Cleaning of labyrinth deflector:
Before 11/2015: Fold out the deflector 1 toward
(soot will fell down).
This cleaning is necessary to do once a month during winter heating
season. In case if you don`t clean it the labyrinth deflector can
obstruct and it can caused bad combustion and excessive smoke.
After 11/2015: self-cleaning of labyrinth deflector by door opening.

It is necessary to grease the convection mechanism with heat-resistant
silicone oil if you use the stove frequently. DO NOT USE ANY OTHER type
of grease or oil. This Teflon-based grease is also available from the
M-design dealers. The mechanism could otherwise dry out and the window
could be blocked when the temperature is constantly high.

LEANING THE WINDOW
Close the window.
Open the window to 45°.
Once you have done this, you can slide it up and down to clean it.
We advise you to use M-design’s “Bio-Clean” to clean the window, which
is available from your supplier. It is one of the few products that do not
harm the lacquer.
