5. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

5.1 Maintenance. An appropriate and regular maintenance of both the appliance and the installation contributes greatly to its good
performance. It is important to perform periodic and complete controls of the equipment and of the ducts and installation. Thus, for
your safety and comfort, some of our dealers offer a servicing contract for your device. Please contact your dealer for this
service.
5.1.1 Locking mechanisms. You need to make sure no mechanisms are locked (registers, door, air inlet, etc.) after an extended
shutdown period.
5.1.2. Spare parts. Use only original spare parts, or parts recommended by Manufacturas Rocal, S.A. See picture on section "V" of
the ANNEXED document.
5.2. Cleaning. It is important for the appliance to be clean of ash so that all mechanisms work properly. To clean the body of the
device use the cleaning dry cloth given with the appliance or similar. Do not use current cleaning products.
5.2.1 Glass. You must turn the device off to clean the glass. The products used must not come into contact with the metal parts of
the door or the ceramic board; the aggressiveness of these products can cause a corrosion process of the equipment.
5.2.2 Ash. Located under the ember grate and removable from behind, it allows to empty the ash without having to put out the
chimney, always taking care that the ashes do not contain burning embers; in this case, they must be put in a metal bucket.
Empty the ash tray regularly. To access the ash basin follow the steps shown in pictures "C.8" and "C.9 of the ANNEXED
document.
CAUTION: With the appliance running, the inside compartment must remain completely closed.
You can only access it for ash disposal.
5.2.3. Flue liner. It is important to keep the flue liner clean. It gets dirty depending on the fuel used, on a slower or faster combustion,
etc. You need to clean the flue liner at least once per season. It is mandatory for a specialist to review it periodically. To access the
flue liner follow the steps shown in pictures "C.3", "C.4", "C.10" and "C.11" of the ANNEXED document.
5.2.4. Painting. The heatproof paint that covers the inside and outside of the appliance withstands temperatures up to 600 °C and
releases a subtle typical smell that disappears after the first few uses.
It is possible for the paint to jump out in some areas inside the housing after a period of use, due to corrosion caused by liquids,
inadequate fuel types or others not authorized by the manufacturer, etc., In that case it will be necessary to repaint all damaged areas
before a prolonged shutdown period. Use exclusively "Rocal heatproof spray paint".
