If you are using the device for the first time (or when it has not been used for a
while), you must keep a close eye on it for the first 20-30 minutes to ensure that it
is working correctly. During initial use (and if the unit has not been used for a long
period), white smoke may be emitted from the device. This is normal and will stop
after a few minutes. During the warm-up period, the unit may sputter; this is
nothing to worry about.
Cleaning, maintenance and service
It is important to clean the device regularly particularly if it hangs outdoors.
Cleaning extends the life-span of the device and ensures it works effectively. It is
also a condition of the guarantee.
Clean the device every 2-3 weeks (depending on the environment); clean weekly in
a salty environment. Salt in the air can penetrate the device and lead to rusting or
erosion of the metal. In an urban environment, air pollution can also impact upon
the coating and other materials which protect the device from rust and erosion.
You must thoroughly clean and inspect the device once every 3 months.
Be aware that, despite regular cleaning, the effects of weather, air pollution and
salt, cigarette smoke, oil lamps, candles, barbecues etc. will leave their mark on
the device over time.
