IMPORTANT - Warning Note!
Properly installed, operated and maintained this appliance will not emit fumes into the

fume emission is potentially dangerous and must not be tolerated. If fume emission does
persist, the following immediate actions should be taken:
1. Open doors and windows to ventilate room.
2. Let the fire out or eject and safely dispose of fuel from the appliance.
3. Check for flue or chimney blockage, and clean if required.
4. Do not attempt to relight the fire until the cause of the fume emission has been
identified and corrected. If necessary seek expert advice.
IMPORTANT - Warning Note!
Do not use an aerosol spray on or near the stove when it is alight.
IMPORTANT - Safety advice!
When using the stove in situations where children, aged and/or infirm persons are pres-
ent a fireguard must be used to prevent accidental contact with the stove. The fireguard
should be manufactured in accordance with BS 8423:2002 (Replaces BS 6539).

Lighting and fuelling

NOTE!
If airsystem is connected, the valve must be open.
TIPS before firing up:
Open a door or window close to the wood burning. If there is a "storm" in the stove
coming from the chimney, it is advisable to place a screwed-up piece of newspaper be-
tween the upper baffle plate and the chimney, set the paper on fire, and wait until you
hear a "rumbling" noise in the chimney. This means that there definitely is a draught in
the chimney and you avoid smoke in the room.
"Top-Down" lighting (see photos at the back of manual.)
• Start by placing 2-3 pieces wood - approx. 1½-2 kgs - at the bottom of the burn-
ing chamber. Place approx. 1 kg of dry firewood, split into kindling sticks., and 2-3
alcohol briquettes or similar (photo 1).
Set the air damper to fully open - position 3.
• Light the fire and close the door (photo 2-3), leaving the door ajar approx.
10-15 mm.
NOTE! It is important to achieve a fast lighting of the wood.
• When the fire has caught the kindling wood (photo 4), close the door completely
(after approx. 10-15 min., depending on the draft conditions in the chimney).
Adjust the damper to pos. 2 (see 'Adjustment of air damper').
• When the last flames are extinguished and there is a nice layer of embers (photo 5),
add 2 -3 pieces wood - about 1½-2 kgs.
