6 - CLEANING
THE FRONT
Preferably clean when the Fireplace is cold, using a
slightly damp cloth.
THE GLASS PANE
Fireplace window cleaning liquids are effective
products.
Never try to clean the glass while the fireplace is
working. We recommend using HERGOM window
cleaning products.
Replacing: the glass pane in your fireplace is made
of thermal material, especially manufactured for
log and/or coal fireplaces. If it should break due
to an accident, it must be replaced by another
glass pane with the same technical specifications.
Contact our Distributor to provide you with the
appropriate glass pane, together with instructions
on how to assemble and seal it.
BAFFLE PLATE
Clean the deflector on both sides at least once
each season using a brush. This will facilitate the
transmission of air through the plate and avoid its
deterioration to a great extent.
For installing and removing the deflector proceed
following the steps described in paragraph 8. Pay
special attention, vermiculite is fragile and can
break.
JOINTS AND SEALS
It is advisable to perform a visual inspection of the
door joints at the beginning and in mid-season to
ensure they are airtight. If necessary, contact our
Distributor to supply you with the appropriate seal,
along with assembly instructions.
7 - SAFETY
WARNING!
Gas/log/pellet units get hot when in use.
Consequently, owners must act with precaution
and keep at a distance. Especially keep children,
the elderly and other people who require special
supervision, as well as pets, away from the
appliance when it is in use.
Make sure that children or other people who are
not familiar with how the appliance works are
supervised by responsible people when they are
near the fireplace.
In order to prevent burns or children or other
people from coming near the appliance, use a fire
grille or screen.
A number of possible risks may arise when
operating your solid fuel fireplace with fuel of
any brand. The said risks can be minimised if the
instructions and recommendations included in this
manual are followed.
• Keep any flammable material (furniture,
curtains, clothes...) away from the fireplace, at
a safe distance of at least 0,90m. The minimum
safety distances according to the trial by the
official agency based on the UNE-EN 13229:
2001 are shown in Figure 14.
• Ash should be emptied into a metal container
and immediately removed from the house.
• Do not use flammable liquids to light the
fireplace. Keep any type of flammable liquid
(petrol, gasoline, alcohol,....) at a distance from
the fireplace.
• Periodically inspect the chimney and clean it
whenever necessary. Also inspect the state of
seals, glass, screws...
• Do not install near walls that are combustible
or that feature any type of lining that may be
damaged or deformed by high temperatures
(varnish, paint...). Precautions should also be
taken to prevent placing the hot air grilles on
combustible items.
• Protect your hands with a glove or other
insulating material because, during operation,
the opening and closing handle will be hot.
