1. Remove dust and loose soot with a dry cloth.
2. Clean the glass with stove glass cleaner:
a. Apply stove glass cleaner to a kitchen sponge,
rub down the entire glass surface and give the
cleaning agent time to react.
b. Remove the dirt with a moist cloth or kitchen
tissue.
3. Clean the glass again with a normal glass cleaning
product.
4. Rub the glass clean with a dry cloth or kitchen
tissue.
Do not use abrasive or aggressive products to
clean the glass.
Wear household gloves to protect your hands.
If the glass in the appliance is broken or
cracked, it must be replaced before you can
use the appliance again.
Make sure that no stove window cleaner runs
between the glass and the cast-iron door.
Lubrication
Although cast-iron is slightly self-lubricating, you will
still need to lubricate moving parts frequently.
Lubricate the moving parts (such as guide
systems,hinge pins, latches and air slides) with
heat resistant grease that is available in the
specialist trade.
Touching-up the paint finish
Small areas of damaged paint finish can be touched-
up with a spray can of special heat-resistant paint,
available from your supplier.
Areas of damaged enamel can be touched up with a
special heat-resistant paint finish that is available
from your supplier.
Checking the seal
Check whether the door sealing rope is still in good
condition and works well. The sealing rope is
subject to wear and will need to be replaced over
time.
Subject to change because of technical improvements
Check the appliance for air leaks. Close any
chinks with stove sealant.
Allow the sealant to harden fully before lighting
the stove, as any moisture in the sealant will
form bubbles, resulting in a new air leak.
