4.2.4 INSPECTING THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER
Recommended frequency: Every 500 uses.
The catalytic converter is the primary air duct between the incineration chamber and the appliance flue terminal.
Any accumulations of particles in the catalytic converter will reduce the flow rate and the toilet efficiency,
and may be the cause of bad odour. It is therefore important to ensure that the catalytic converter is open
at all times. Any changes in incineration time, incineration efficiency or odour, may be due to dense catalytic
conversion. The best method to easily clean the catalytic converter is to perform "steam cleaning" as described
in section 4.2.2. You can also inspect the front of the catalytic converter by removing the ash container and
illuminating the incineration chamber from the inside. Any remaining particles or odours persisting after steam
cleaning will have to be removed by rinsing the catalytic converter with hot water as described in section
4.2.5 CLEANING THE APPLIANCE FLUE TERMINAL
Recommended frequency: at least every 500 uses.
1. The appliance will have to be disconnected from the flue pipe and power source.
2. Clean the flue terminal with a flexible brush, it is important that you clean both the flue terminal and
surrounding venturi all the way back to the fan blades, this to get sufficient air flow.
3. Remove the ash container and clean out any debris in the container.
4. Use a vacuum cleaner to extract the remaining debris in the flue terminal and catalytic converter.
5. Reconnect the appliance to the flue pipe and power supply.
6. Install the ash container and front cover.
7. It is recommended that you perform a steam cleaning as described in section 4.2.2 after performing the flue
terminal maintenance.
NOTE!
Clear signs of corrosion or
deformity of the catalytic
converter will indicate that the
catalytic converter must be
replaced. Contact your local service
provider to arrange for service.
