It is common maintenance to tighten the glass fittings and the hinges shortly after the stove has been
installed.
Gaskets
Check if the gaskets around glass and door are properly placed. Over time, the gaskets will wear out and
should therefore be checked regularly. If leakages appear, they should be replaced, as it is essential that the
stove is tight.
Adjusting the door
Adjusting the door and the closing mechanism is a necessary part of the maintenance of the stove, which
you can easily do yourself. If the door hangs on one side, feels sluggish to close or does not close properly,
you should adjust and tighten the hinges and fittings around the door.
Ashes
Empty the ashpan before it gets completely full but always leave a layer of ashes in the combustion chamber
because it insulates and makes it easier to light a fire next time.
Cleaning the stove
The stove's surface will stay at its best just by being vacuumed with a small, soft mouthpiece or dusted with a
soft, dry cloth. Do not use spirit or other solvents, as they will remove the paint.
Do not clean the stove with water. If the stove is exposed to moisture, the
stove may develop rust.
The inside of the stove and the flue pipe can be cleaned through the door or alternatively through the
cleaning aperture in the flue pipe/chimney. The upper fireproof tile (the baffle plate) can be removed. To
allow free access to the top of the stove and the flue pipe, also remove the baffle plate in steel. The flue pipe
can be removed from the stove and cleaned. Cleaning of the inside of the stove and the flue pipe should be
undertaken at least once a year, or more frequently if necessary, depending on how often the stove is used.
This work can also be carried out by the chimney sweep or your local Aduro GO partner.
Repairing the surface (This does not apply to Aduro 9 Lux Ceramic & 17.1 Lux)
The stove is painted with a heat resistant paint that can withstand temperatures up to 500 degrees. If the
surface of the stove gets scratched or worn, it can easily be renewed using this type of paint. The paint is
available in black metallic at www.aduroshop.com/aduro-spray-black-metallic-53262a.
Spare parts and unauthorized alterations
You may only use original spare parts for your stove. All forms of unauthorized alterations to the stove are
strictly forbidden, as the stove will no longer comply with the approved specifications. At
www.aduroshop.com
you can buy original spare parts for your stove.
Bauart safety spring
All Aduro stoves are fitted with a "Bauart" safety spring. The mechanism ensures that the door of the stove
closes automatically. The "Bauart" spring is a law requirement in some European markets, so please check
your local regulations if you wish to permanently remove this feature.
