Before opening the door of the fire box, the lever should be brought to the position "Input of air
closed" 0", in order to avoid the escape of combustion products to the living room.
After stoking of fuel, close the door of the fire box again.
Next, set the lever to the position "Ignition” again ON, so that the time interval to the inflammation of
fuel might be as short as possible.
As soon as fuel starts burning lively, the lever is to be re-set again to "Heating operation regime"
5.6. Overheating
In order to avoid damage to the appliance due to overheating, there must not be exceeded the maximum
one-shot stoking amount of fuel (see specification of the appliance). It can bring about damage to fire clay, grate, pile
grating, formation of fissures in tiles, tinting of parts of the casing, heat accumulating bricks and glass, deformation of
metal sheet parts, destruction of sealing and of the glass board of the cover etc. All the rights arising from the
guarantee cease to exist.
5.7. Removal of ashes
After longer heating, but once a week at least, it is necessary to rake out ashes into the ash-pan by means of a
poker, and to empty the ash-pan. Please mind to empty the ash-pan meanwhile it is approximately half-full, so that
the layer of ashes may not touch the grate.
There is a danger that the circulation of air might be interrupted, and of insufficient cooling as the consequence,
which can bring about overheating and damage to the grate.
Before removal of ashes, check always whether there are no remains of live fuel in the ashes. Even in cold
ashes, there may possibly remain rests of live fuel, and bring about fire in the waste bin.
6. Cleaning and servicing
Once in a year at least, or more often in case of need, you should clean the fireplace stove in cold state,
and service it. During the servicing, it is necessary to remove accumulated ashes from the tube of the
smoke flue and from boards changing the smoke direction or from the return draft boards. The return
draft boards can be taken out for cleaning (see the specification of the appliance).
The heat exchanger requires cleaning in short time intervals, depending on the manner of heating. (See
the specification of the appliance).
Glass of the door: For ecological cleaning, we dip a wet dishcloth in wood ashes, and clean the glass with
it. Also, it is possible to employ special cleaning agents for the glasses of fireplace stoves, or regular
agents for cleaning of glass (without caustic acids and solvents).
It is also necessary to have the chimney cleaned by a chimneysweep. The respective chimneysweep will
give you information of the necessary intervals.
A fireplace stove ought to be checked by a professional every year.
