Fire protection

Please, instruct especially your children about this danger and during the heating operation of the stove
keep your children as far as possible. Burning of wood causes strong heating of the stove surface as well as
the control elements, but above all of the glass and the flue gas pipe. Never touch these parts without
corresponding protective clothing or aids as e.g. heat-resistant gloves. Do not put articles or clothing or
other item on the stove to dry. It is prohibited to put objects that are not heat-resistant on the stove or in its
vicinity. Put laundry drying stands or similar structures in a sufficient distance from the stove. Heating or
inserting of highly flammable or explosive substances as empty spray cans, etc. in the combustion chamber
or their storage in the immediate vicinity of the stove is strictly prohibited due to the risk of explosion.
When loading wood, do not wear loose or highly flammable clothes. During operation of your stove
processing of highly flammable and explosive substances in the same or adjacent rooms is forbidden.

you can ask your local chimney supervisor for necessary information. This supervisor also approves
