At the end of the heating season strip, inspect and clean the appliance as detailed:

• Remove all of the following internal parts; baffle, firebricks, complete grate, and ash pan. For Multi
fuel versions remove the complete grate and ash pan.
Take care handling firebricks, as they can become fragile after a period of use.
• Vacuum clean any remaining ash and debris from the inside of the appliance.

Vacuum and brush the resulting debris from the appliance.
• Clean the grate parts with a wire brush, and check the parts for any damage

Some surface damage will occur during use. The life of the bricks will depend on the type of fuels
burnt and the level of use. Damaged bricks should be replaced as soon as possible.
• Re-fit cleaned internal parts
• Remove the door rope seal from the outer edge of the door and clean the old glue from the door
sealing rope groove
Do not use abrasive cleaners to remove tar or soot deposits from the glass.
• Fit new door rope seal, gluing it in place
• Press the new door sealing rope into the locating groove, placing the joint in the middle of the lower
edge of the door.
When fitting new door seals, close the appliance door and leave for at least 12 hours before using.
This allows the adhesive to fully bond to the seal before use.

use heat resisting grease like copper grease.
