• If the stove had been using continuously and intensely, the whole system (chimney included), must be
cleaned and checked more frequently.
• In case of replacement of damaged pieces please ask for the original spare part at the Autorized Retailer.
Before any movement let the fire inside the combustion chamber extinguish till the total
cooling and always disconnect the plug from the socket.

BURNING POT AND ASH TRAY CLEANING
The burning pot and ash tray cleaning must be executed at least every 2 days.
• Open the door.
Fig. 40 - Burning pot extraction
• Extract the burning pot (see Fig. 40 page 27) from its seat and empty it from the ash.
• Extract the ash tray (see Fig. 41 page 27) and empty it from the ash.
• If necessary clean with a pointed object the holes obstructed by encrustations (see Fig. 42 page 27).
Fig. 43 - Burning pot box cleaning
• Clean and drain away the burning pot box and ash tray box from ash which has accumulated in its inner (see
Fig. 43 page 27 and Fig. 44 page 27).
• Clean also the hole for pellet drop with a brush (see Fig. 45 page 27).
• The ash remains must be poured in a metal container with a sealed lid and this container must never get in
touch with combustible materials (for example put on a wooden floor), as the inner ash keeps the embers
firing for a long time.
• Only when the embers are off the ash coul be poured in the organic waste.
• Pay attention if the flame becomes red colured, if it is weak or if black smoke creates in the inner: in this case
the burning pot is encrusted and needs to be cleaned. If it is broken, it must be replaced.
13.3
HOPPER AND AUGER CLEANING
Per each pellets supply, check the probable presence of meal, sawdust and other remanins on the hopper
bottom. If present, they must be removed with the aid of a vacuum cleaner (see Fig. 46 page 28).
