Extinguishing The Fire; Removing Ashes - Dovre 2175CBS Installation Et Mode D'emploi

The primary air slide (A) regulates the air below the
grate. The secondary air slide (B) regulates the air for
the glass (air wash).
Turn the air slide (A) to the left to open it; see next
figure.
Turn the air slide (B) to the right to open it; see next
figure.
The appliance is fitted with a double baffle plate with
permanent vent holes to ensure secondary
combustion.
Advice
Never burn wood with an open door.
Regularly burn wood with intense roaring fires.
If you frequently have low intensity fires, tar
and creosote may be deposited in the chimney.
Tar and creosote are highly combustible
substances. Thicker layers of these
substances might catch fire when the
temperature in the chimney increases
suddenly and steeply. Therefore it is
necessary for the fire to regularly burn very
Subject to change because of technical improvements
intensely, so that layers of tar and creosote
disappear.
Low intensity fires also cause tar deposits on
the stove window and door.
When the outside temperature is not very low,
it is better to burn wood intensely for a few
hours instead of having a low intensity fire for a
long period of time.
Control the air supply with the secondary air inlet.
The secondary air inlet not only supplies air to
the fire but to the glass as well, so that it does
not get dirty so quickly.
Open the primary air inlet for the time being if the air
supply by the secondary air inlet is inadequate or if
you want to fan the fire.
It is better to add a small amount of logs regularly
than to add many logs at the same time.

Extinguishing the fire

Do not add fuel and just let the fire go out. If a fire is
damped down by reducing the supply of air, harmful
substances will be produced and released. Therefore,
let the fire go out naturally. Keep an eye on the fire
until it has gone out. When the fire has died
completely, all air inlets can be closed.

Removing ashes

After wood has been burnt, a relatively small amount
of ash remains behind. This bed of ash is a good
insulator for the fire plate and gives better combustion.
So you can leave a thin layer of ash on the fire plate.
The flow of air through the fire plate must not be
obstructed, however, and no ash may be allowed to
accumulate behind a cast-iron inner plate. Remove
the excess ash regularly.
Removing ash in models 2175 and
2575
1. Open the door of the appliance.
2. Scoop the excess ash from the appliance or use a
special ash vacuum cleaner to remove the excess
ash.
