Cleaning
Surface blemishes caused by spillage on the gloss
enamel are easier to remove when the stove is cool, and
a damp cloth is usually all that is necessary.
This should not be done while the stove is hot.
Do not use abrasive pads, oven cleaner, or cleaners
containing citric acid on porcelain surfaces.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Porcelain enamel is glass. Clean
porcelain surfaces with glass cleaner or polish and a soft
cloth. These cleaners are unsuitable for use on chrome
and stainless steel including the hand-rails and their
brackets.
The insulating covers should be cleaned regularly with a
NON-ABRASIVE mild detergent, applied with a soft
(coarse free) cloth and lightly polished up afterwards with
a soft (coarse free) duster or tissue to bring it back to its
original lustre.
To Replace Bottom Grate
Bars
Allow re to burn out rst then open the ashpit door and
lift off the cleaning door. Remove dead fuel with hooked
poker into ashpan and then lift up each individual bar,
pulling forward to remove.
NOTE: There are two types of bars assembled and
the replacement bars should be checked against
'Replaced' bar before replacement.
Firebrick Replacement
Damaged rebricks should be replaced as soon as
possible but it may be temporarily repaired with stove
cement. The rebricks tted to the Heartland Artisan are
of rst quality manufacture, and providing the stove has
been installed and used correctly will have a reasonable
life. They are, however, expendable items and in time will
require renewal.
Replacement bricks either in sets or singular can be
obtained from your Heartland distributor. Always quote the
serial number.
The serial number, which will be found xed to the
appliance, should be quoted if any question arises in
connection with the Heartland Artisan stove.
Flueway Cleaning
WARNING: HOT SURFACES, use the tool supplied to
operate this appliance. It is recommended to use the
heatproof glove supplied when raising the dome lids to
use the hotplate.
Following a prolonged shutdown of the appliance,
perhaps after the summer break, ensure the ueway is
free from obstruction prior to re-lighting.
Prolonged soot formation may result in ueways
becoming blocked and could give rise to the release of
carbon monoxide, a poisonous gas into the room.
Failure to ensure clean ueways, ue pipes and bends
may lead to emission of dangerous gases and an inferior
performance from your appliance.
Stove Flueway - Allow the re to burn out, open the
ue chamber damper to its maximum and remove the
ue chamber door by lifting up on an angle.
Brush the soot or y ash from the ue pipe allowing it to
fall onto the top of the oven. Fig. 11.
Remove the hotplate plug and rake the deposits forward,
pushing them into the rebox. Figs. 12 & 13
NOTE: The stove is designed and intended to be
under continuous ring but if it is not in use ashpit
and ue chamber doors should be left open to
ensure free passage of air through the stove and
avoid condensation problems.
