Cleaning the window
Secondary air forms a curtain of hot air in front of the window (rinsing) if the fire has been
properly created. This means that less soot forms on the window of the heating door.
If ash particles settle on the window despite this, we recommend using a standard stove
window cleaning agent.
A tried and tested cleaning procedure that is environmentally friendly: moisten a ball of
newspaper or kitchen roll and dip it into the cold wood ash. Rub the inside of the heating
door window. Wipe with a dry bunch of paper.
Cleaning the combustion chamber
Grate and ash holder
PLEASE NOTE Do not empty the ash holder
when it is hot! Please note that seemingly cold
ash may still contain small embers. To avoid
starting a fire, it is recommended to place ash
into a suitable metal container before throwing
it away.
Wipe the ash into the ash holder through the
slits of the grate using an ash slider. Remove cinders, encrustations and other deposits
created due to combustion from the air slits in the grate.
Empty the ash holder on a regular basis and on time - the cone of ash should not block the
primary air openings in the grate!
Flue gas ducts
Screw off the outer and inner cover on the
cleaning port (only when the device is cold!) and
remove any residual flue ash at regular intervals
(especially important before the hot season). This
is easiest to do with an ash vacuum.
