Surface Treatment; Chimney Sweeping; Service Inspection - wiking Arctic Bedienungsanleitung

Surface Treatment

It is normally not necessary to treat the wood-burning stove's surfaces. If the lacquer has been
damaged, you can repair it by using a special senotherm spray, which can be purchased from
your local wood-burning stove dealer.

Chimney Sweeping

In order to prevent against the risk of chimney fires, the chimney must be cleaned once a year.
The smoke pipe and smoke chamber above the steel smoke deflector must be cleaned at the
same time as the chimney. If the chimney's height makes cleaning from above impossible, a
cleaning hatch must be installed.

Service Inspection

WIKING recommends a thorough service inspection every other year, so that your wood-
burning stove will last for many years. The service inspection must be performed by a qualified
serviceman, and only original spare parts should be used.
Among other things, a service inspection includes:
• A thorough cleaning of the stove.
• An adjustment of the handle/door.
• Greasing of the hinges with copper grease.
• Inspection of the heat-insulating plates (the vermiculite set)
• Inspection of the damper beneath the door.
• Inspection of the seals and the replacement of worn parts.
If you have any questions, please consult our FAQ page at www.wiking.com, or contact your
local wood-burning stove dealer.
