Should the stove burner cut out for any reason you should not try to
During normal operation, for example in the winter months when the stove will be in regular use, we advise that the pilot is left running continuously as this will allow for quick and easy lighting, while at the same time helping to prevent condensation. When the stove is not being used for long periods, i.e. in the summer then we advise that the gas supply is turned off at the isolation tap.
PLEASE NOTE: When the stove is first operated it should be run at its maximum setting for several hours to help the painted coating to cure. However, if you are able to run the stove for a minimum of four hours then the full curing process will be completed.
While the paint is curing there may be a little smoke given off the surface of the stove accompanied by a slight smell and traces of vapour. This is perfectly normal and quite harmless. However, for your own comfort keep the room well ventilated until the curing process is completed. The slight smell may linger for the first week or so of operation.

MAINTENANCE & SERVICING
PROCEDURES.
Stove Cleaning
The stove surfaces are treated with an extremely durable high temperature resistant paint cleaned by brushing down with a clean shoe brush. If any of the black paint should need retouching you can obtain the correct paint from your stove supplier. Don't wash the stove or let water remain on any surface when it is cold as this may cause rusting.
Glass Cleaning
Under normal use the glass should remain clean. However, if the glass needs cleaning, this can easily be done with a suitable glass cleaner available from your stove supplier.

Fume Spillage Check
This test must be carried out by the installation engineer when the stove is first commissioned and then we suggest every 12 months to ensure that the products of combustion are not spilling into the room. The test is carried out by running the stove for ten minutes and then holding a smoke match close to the diverter box to make sure the smoke is drawn up the into the flue way. Do not use a lighted match or a naked flame. The air flow must be drawn to the chimney with sufficient draught. If the smoke is disturbed then repeat the test a few minutes later. If the smoke is still disturbed by escaping products of combustion turn the stove off and contact your installation engineer
