Heating
Fig. 26
Leave the ignition-/air vent 24 mm (Fig. 26) open when the
•
wood has caught fire properly and is burning well.
• Close the door.
• You can then regulate the rate of combustion to give the heat
you want by adjusting the air vent.
• Check that the afterburning (secondary combustion) starts.
This is best indicated by yellow, flickering flames in front of
the holes under the baffle.
Adding firewood
Stoke the stove frequently but only add small amounts of fuel at
a time. If the stove is filled too full, the heat created may cause
extreme stress in the chimney. Add fuel to the fire in moderation.
Avoid smouldering fires as this produces the most pollution.
The fire is best when it is burning well and the smoke from the
chimney is almost invisible.
• Refuelling on to a low fi re bed: If there is insuffi cent
burning material in the fi rebed to light a new fuel charge,
excessive smoke emission can occur. Refi lling must be
carried out onto a suffi cient quantity of glowing embers
and ash that new fuel charge will ignite in a reasonable
period. If there are too few embers in the fi re bed, add
suitable kindling to prevent excessive smoke.
• Fuel overloading: The maximum amount of fuel specifi ed
in this manual should not be exceeded, overloading can
cause exess smoke
• Operating with door left open: Operation with the door
open can cause excess smoke. This appliance must not
be operated with the appliance door left open except as
directed in the instructions.
• Dampers left open: Operation with the air controls or
apploance dampers can excess smoke. The appliance
must not be operated with air controls, appliance dampers
or door left open exept as directed in the instructions.
5.2 Danger of overheating
The fireplace must never be used in a manner that
causes overheating
Overheating occurs when there is too much fuel and/or too much
air so that too much heat develops. A sure sign of overheating is
when parts of the fireplace glow red. If this happens, reduce the
air vent opening immediately.
Seek professional advice if you suspect that the chimney is not
drawing properly (too much/too little draught). For further
information, see «4.0 Installation» (Chimney and flue pipe).

ash from coming through the grate into the pan.
