6. Maintenance and Cleaning
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your chimney.
6.1 Intelligent Auto Clean

The Intelli Auto Clean function automatically cleans the chimney after every 30 hours of usage. High heat melts oil and grease, which then collects in the oil collector tray.
6.2 Oil Collector Tray
The built-in oil collector tray gathers the melted oil and grease. It should be regularly checked and emptied to prevent overflow and maintain hygiene. To remove, gently slide out the tray, dispose of the contents, and clean it with mild detergent before reinserting.
6.3 Exterior Cleaning
Clean the exterior surfaces of the chimney regularly with a soft cloth and a mild, non-abrasive cleaning solution. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the finish. Ensure the chimney is switched off and unplugged before cleaning.
