clearly not only uneconomical to fire with wet fuel but also, as mentioned above, increases the risk of producing
soot, smoke and other environmentally damaging by-products.
Burning varnished wood, impregnated wood, chipboard, paper and other waste is strictly forbidden. Burning these
materials will damage the environment, the wood burning stove and your own health. Fossil fuels must not be
used.
3.3 How do I light a fire in the wood burning stove?
The fire lighting method is very important for starting combustion quickly and efficiently.
1) Open the primary air intake/damper under the door and open the secondary air intake behind the door. The
primary damper is used at the start to get the fire going, while the secondary air intake keeps the fire
burning evenly. The secondary air intake is closed when the damper is pushed all the way to the left and
open when the damper is pushed to the right. To open the primary air intake the damper should be pulled
out. The illustration below shows the stove seen from the front with the dampers indicated.
2) Place a log of wood crosswise in the combustion chamber and put 2 firelighters close to the log. Light the
firelighters and quickly put a new log close to the firelighters and several small logs at an angle above it. Air
must be able to reach the firelighters, but the logs should be touching to “warm” each other.
3) Keep the door approx. 1 cm ajar, until the glass is too hot to touch. Then close the door. When there are
distinct, visible flames and the fire has taken hold, close the primary air intake/damper.
Important: The control handle will get warm when the wood burning stove is being used. Please use the glove
provided when you operate the wood burning stove.

3.4 The first time a fire is lit
The wood burning stove is packed in recycling packaging (wood and plastic). This must be disposed according to
national rules regarding disposal of waste. The wood from the packaging can be sawed into smaller pieces and
used the first time a fire is lit. The first few times the wood burning stove is used, there may be some smoke and
unpleasant odours from the wood burning stove, which is fairly normal. This is caused by the heat-resistant paint
hardening. Make sure there is sufficient ventilation during this stage. It is also important not to let the fire burn too
