Cleaning the Optional Gold Surfaces (Door and optional Grill)
Fingerprints or other marks left on gold surfaces may become etched in place if they are not wiped
clean prior to turning the stove on. Clean the gold with denatured alcohol and a soft cloth (make sure
the heater is cool). Other cleaners may leave a film that may become etched into the gold.
Clean the Baffles
WARNING : Make sure the heater has fully cooled (approximately 25 minutes) before conducting service.
Use both hands to lift each baffle up and forward. Then tilt the baffle downward to remove any flyash
that may have accumulated on top of the baffle.
N O T E : you do not need to remove the baffle from the firebox.
The firebox baffles install on ledges at the top of the firebox. The two tabs (at the
outside back corners) insert into notches at the right and left rear corners of the
firebox walls.
The baffles install on
ledges above the
firebrick.
