5.2 Lighting the fire
Important!
Please note that if too little wood is used when lighting the fire,
or if the pieces of wood are too large, it will not be possible to
attain the optimum working temperature in the burn chamber.
This can result in poor combustion and may lead to a heavy build-
up of soot, or cause the fire to die out when the door is closed.
If the house has a mechanical ventilation system, the pressure
inside the house is negative and the fireplace does not have an
outside air connection, open a window near to the stove before
lighting a fire. Let the window remain open for a minute or two
until the fire has begun to burn properly.

• Place two medium-sized logs on each side at the bottom of
the burn chamber. NB: In order to avoid a build-up of soot on
the glass, it is important not to let the logs touch the glass.
• Place firelighters or bark off the birch wood between the logs.
Stack some finely split wood on top in a criss-cross pattern.
Light the fire.

5.3 Stoking the fire

• To be able to control the heat output, it is important to have
a thick layer of embers and a high temperature in the burn
chamber. Stoke the fire with more wood when it has burned
down to embers. NB: Use a glove or something similar to
protect your hand in case the handles are hot.
• Open the door slightly and allow the pressure in the
• burn chamber to even out for a few seconds before opening
the door fully. This prevents smoke and ash from spilling out.
Never put on more wood while the fire is burning well.
• Stoke with 2 or 3 logs that together weigh about 2 kg. To
ensure optimal combustion, logs must NOT be higher than
the upper holes in the rear plate.
• Close the door.
• Leave the ignition vent and the air vent open for 2 or 3 minutes
until the logs have turned black and are burning well. Then
adjust the ignition and air vents to 40% to 70%.
• The conditions for controlling combustion vary depending
on the temperature in the burn chamber and the draught
in the chimney.
Important! It is important to get the wood burning quickly and
we therefore recommend that you open up the air supply. Burning
at too low a temperature and with too little air can in some cases
cause gas ignition which may damage the stove.
• Refuelling on to a low fire bed: If there is insufficent
burning material in the firebed to light a new fuel charge,
excessive smoke emission can occur. Refilling must be carried
out onto a sufficient quantity of glowing embers and ash
that new fuel charge will ignite in a reasonable period. If
there are too few embers in the fire bed, add suitable kindling
to prevent excessive smoke.
• Fuel overloading: The maximum amount of fuel specified
in this manual should not be exceeded, overloading can
cause exess smoke
• Operating with door left open: Operation with the door
open can cause excess smoke. This appliance must not
be operated with the appliance door left open except as
directed in the instructions.
• Dampers left open: Operation with the air controls or
apploance dampers can excess smoke. The appliance must
not be operated with air controls, appliance dampers or door
left open exept as directed in the instructions.
