2.5 Lighting the fire

To operate the heat system correctly and safely, it is important to ensure that the chimney generates

the required delivery pressure. This must be checked particularly at each initial operation (after the

summer season) and in the transition period (e.g. strong wind, fog, etc.). For this purpose, hold a match

or lighter flame to the opened fire door. If the flame is not drawn into the opening, a natural draught

must be created in the chimney through a strong build-up of heat (e.g. by paper or kindling). If this does

not succeed, the fireplace heater must not be put into operation!

• Move the combustion air flap control to the leftmost position "+" (see p.1 / Fig.2)

• Open damper flap, if present, completely (see Fig.6).

• Place 2 - 3 pieces of firewood (beech, oak, birch) crosswise in the bottom of the firebox (see Fig.7 - (1).

Place the finely split softwood on top (2). Place a lighting aid (3) in the middle and light it. Never use

petrol, spirit or similar substances to light the fire!

• When after a few minutes the firewood has burnt well all around (see Fig.8), close the combustion air

flap by approx. 50% (set the control to the middle position - see page 1 / Fig.2) or close the damper

flap, if present, by 50% (handle to the left - see Fig.6).

2.6 Heating

• The combustion air flap should not be more than 50% open (control in middle position), otherwise the

fuel fed will burn away too quickly, resulting in excessively high temperatures on the appliance.

• The damper flap, if present, should be 50% open, otherwise the fuel fed will burn away quickly.

• Open all existing warm air grilles completely.

• Add more wood after approx. 45 to 60 minutes.

2.7 Piling up the fire

Please note that the fireplace inserts are not permanent fireplaces. They are temporarily burning

fireplaces, i.e. for longer lasting operation, fuel has to be added repeatedly.

Do not wear wide or easily flammable clothing when adding fuel to the fireplace inserts.

The right time to pile up the fire is when the fuel has burnt down almost to the embers. The second top-

up should be added approx. 45 minutes after the first. In most cases, it is not necessary to add any

more wood.

If you still wish to continue operating the unit, the feeding intervals must be extended and the feeding

quantity reduced (by 0.5 - 1 kg).
