adjust to the development of heat. By careful heating you

will avoid cracks in the insulating bricks, damage to the

finish and distortion of the materials it is made from. Any

possible smells caused by the final drying out of the

protective finish disappear after a short period of time.

5.4. Lighting the multi-fuel stove and heating it

First place two or three pieces of wood (about 1.5 to 2.0 kg)

at the bottom of the combustion chamber or grate. On top of

this place paper (free from any coatings), cardboard or a fire-

lighter; on top of these place brushwood, kindling or pieces

of briquette. All the slide controls to regulate the air intake

should be fully open. After lighting the multi-fuel stove the

combustion chamber door is to be closed. The slider controls

are then to be adjusted according to the instructions on the

accompanying device information sheet.

5.5. Adding fuel

In addition to using the correct fuel and providing a

sufficient draught for the chimney, the way in which the

stove is used has a large influence on whether the transparent

window remains clean. We therefore recommend that you

use just a single layer of fuel and to use the largest possible

pieces of wood (around 33cm) which fill most of the width

of the combustion chamber. Briquettes should be placed in

the combustion chamber so that they as far as possible form

a sheet with a distance of 5 to 10 mm between the briquettes.

Warning! Further fuel should only be placed on top of

the glowing fire bed when there are no longer any

flames.

Before you open the combustion chamber doors all the

sliders controls for the air intakes should be fully closed (see

device information sheet) in order to prevent the escape of

exhaust gases in to the living room. After adding fuel please

close the combustion chamber door. Then immediately open

all the slider controls for the air intakes to their maximum to

reduce the time it takes for the fuel to ignite. As soon as the

fuel is burning well, slowly adjust the regulator position as

described on the accompanying device information sheet

(when burning split logs please close the primary air slider

control first – see the device information sheet).

5.6. Operating methods in the transition period

In the transition period or when there are higher outside

temperatures, a sudden increase in temperature can under

some circumstances cause the chimney draught to be

affected so that exhaust gases are not completely removed.

In principle the stove should therefore be operated using the

smallest possible amount of fuel during this transition period

in order to be able to improve combustion and the draught

by opening the sliding controls for air.

5.7. Emptying the ash

The ash is to be removed from the grate into the ash pan

using a poker after the stove has been lit for a long time, and

at least once a day. This is best carried out in the morning

after the fuel is glowing when the stove is in a relatively cool

condition. Please make sure the ash pan is emptied when it is

around half full so that the cone of ash does not grow too

close to the grate. If the grate is covered by the ash cone

there is a danger that this may be damaged by overheating

because no air can be passed through it to cool it down

Warning:

Before emptying the ash always make sure that there are no

pieces of glowing cinders remaining in the ash. Even when

the ash is cold glowing cinders can possibly be present

within it and lead to a fire in the dustbin.

Wood ash can be used as a fertilizer.

5.8. Limiting emissions

The multi-fuel stove is built for the combustion of smokeless

fuels. According to the German Federal Law on Emission

Control the following fuels, for example, may not be burnt:

 damp wood or wood treated with timber preservatives,

 fine wood chips,

 paper and cardboard (except for lighting the stove),

 bark or waste chipboard ,

 plastics or other rubbish.

Burning these substances not only harms the environment,

but also shortens the life of your multi-fuel stove; the

chimney can also become damaged. Regular cleaning and

maintenance for you stove reduces the emission of harmful

substances. Bark which is already on split logs may, of

course, be burnt.

5.9. Cleaning and maintenance

You should clean and maintain your multi-fuel stove when it

is cold at least once a year and more frequently if necessary.

The accumulations of ash in the flue pipe and the entrances

to the heat exchanger should be cleaned with a flue brush

(see device information sheet). An ash vacuum cleaner is

suitable for cleaning the exhaust gas flues. Dirt on the

transparent windows can be removed most effectively and in

the most environmentally friendly manner by using a

dishcloth moistened with water, which you dip into wood ash

or other usual household glass cleaners.

The chimney must also be swept regularly by the chimney

sweep. The master chimney sweep responsible will provide

information about the necessary interval between sweepings.

The multi-fuel stove should be examined once a year by a

specialist tradesman.
