E. Building A Fire

Before lighting your rst re in the appliance:

NOTE: The special high temperature paint that your

appliance is nished with will cure as your appliance

heats. You will notice an odor and perhaps see some

vapor rise from the appliance surface; this is normal.

We recommend that you open a window until the odor

dissipates and paint is cured.

NOTE:

• Build re on brick rebox oor.

• Do NOT use grates, andirons or other methods to

support fuel. It will adversely affect emissions.

1. Conrm the bafe is correctly positioned. It should be

even with the front tube and resting on all tubes (Figure

12.1 and Figure 12.2).

2. Remove all labels from glass and inside of appliance.

There are many ways to build a re. The basic principle

is to light easily-ignitable tinder or paper, which ignites the

fast burning kindling, which in turn ignites the slow-burning

rewood. Here is one method that works well:

1. Open the Burn Rate Air and ACC Controls fully (Refer to

the Quick Start Guide on page 6).

2. Place several wads of crushed paper on the rebox oor.

Heating the ue with slightly crumpled newspaper before

adding kindling keeps smoke to a minimum.

3. Lay small dry sticks of kindling on top of the paper.

4. Make sure that no matches or other combustibles are in

the immediate area of the appliance. Be sure the room is

adequately ventilated and the ue unobstructed.

5. Light the paper in the appliance. NEVER light or rekindle

re with kerosene, gasoline, or charcoal lighter uid; the

results can be fatal.

6. Once the kindling is burning quickly, add several full-

length logs 3 inches (76mm) or 4 inches (102mm) in

diameter. Be careful not to smother the re. Stack the

pieces of wood carefully; near enough to keep each

other hot, but far enough away from each other to allow

adequate air ow between them.

7. Set the Burn Rate Air Control and activate the ACC timer

system.

8. When ready to reload, It is best to fully open both the Burn

Rate Air and Start-up Air Controls before reloading. This

livens up the coal bed and reduces excessive emissions

(opacity/smoke). Open door slowly so that ash or smoke

does not exit appliance through opening. Large logs

burn slowly, holding a re longer. Small logs burn fast

and hot, giving quick heat.

9. As long as there are hot coals, repeating steps 6 through

8 will maintain a continuous re.

Fire Risk.

• Do not leave the re unattended when

the door is unlatched or when using the

re screen.

• Unstable rewood could fall out of the

rebox creating a re hazard to your home.

WARNING

Fire Risk.

Do NOT store wood:

• Closer than required clearances to

combustibles to appliance

• Within space required for loading or

ash removal.

Do NOT operate appliance:

• With appliance door open.

• With ash removal system door open.

WARNING

Fire Risk.

• Do NOT burn wet or green wood.

• Store wood in dry location.

• Stack wood so both ends are exposed

to air.

Wet, unseasoned wood can cause

accumulation of creosote.
