Installation and Operation Manual - Cape Town 1800
ENGLISH
6.2 Refractory Materials and Baffle
Inspect the refractory panels and the baffle for damage periodically and replace anything that
is broken.
Operation of the heater with a cracked or missing baffle may cause unsafe temperatures
and hazardous conditions and will void the warranty.
6.3 Glass Door
6.3.1 Cleaning
Under normal conditions, the door glass should stay relatively clear. If the firewood is dry
enough and the operating instructions in this manual are followed, a whitish, dusty deposit will
form on the inner surface of the glass after a week or so of use. This is normal and can be easily
removed when the heater is cold by wiping with a damp cloth or paper towel and then drying.
When the stove runs at a low combustion rate, light brown stains may form, especially in the
lower corners of the glass. This indicates that the fire has been smoky and some of the smoke
has condensed on the glass. It also indicates incomplete combustion of the wood, which also
means more smoke emissions and faster formation of creosote in the chimney.
The deposits that form on the glass are the best indication of the fuel quality and success in
properly using the stove. These stains can be cleaned with a special wood stove glass cleaner.
Do not use abrasive products to clean the glass.
The goal should be having a clear glass with no brown stains. If brown stains appear regularly
on the glass, something about the fuel or the operating procedure needs to be changed.
When brown streaks are coming from the edge of the glass, it is time to replace the gasket
around the glass. The glass gasket should be self-adhesive. Always replace the gasket with a
genuine one.
Do not clean the glass when the stove is hot.
Do not abuse the glass door by striking or slamming shut.
Do not use the stove if the glass is broken.
