6. OPERATION - RIKATRONIC3
Note
For stoves with RIKATRONIC3 System (electronic air flap control) a flue pipe
with optional “lockable damper flap” must be always open during heating!
RISK OF FIRE!
Operating the riddle grate
(only stoves with riddle grate)
The ash is moved from the combustion chamber to the ash drawer by pushing
the riddle grate handle back and forth. This frees the way for the primary air
intake which is necessary for heating up.
In general the riddle grate should stay open.
RIKA firelighter
Always ignite the RIKA firelighter on the red tip. One block consists out of 8 ribs
which can be divided to the desired size. The amount of RIKA firelighters also
depends on the size and humidity of your firewood. Ideally, one rib is enough
to light up the fire.
Tip
You can order the RIKA firelighter with the number E15834 at your RIKA
dealer.
Heating instructions
Preparation
Plug in the mains plug and activate the main switch at the rear of the stove. The
main switch now lights up green. The display at the front of the stove also
lights up green for approx. 10 secs. and then flashes intermittently red
until the air flap motor reference run has been completed.
Correct heating up
One the reference run has been completed and the display is constantly red,
open the combustion chamber door and sweep the ashes into the ashtray.
Place left and right 2 small pieces of chipboard lengthways in the bottom of the
combustion chamber and open the riddle grate completely.
Place 2 – 3 smaller (highly flammable) logs crossways on top of this chipboard.
Now place further pieces of chipboard in crossways layers on top of the
logs and ideally you should place 2-4 ribs of the RIKA-firelighter on top of the
chipboard. Some uncoated paper can be placed underneath the chipboard in
case there is no firelighter available.
Now light the firelighter (or the uncoated paper) and close the combustion
chamber door. Correct heating up primarily counteracts excessive smoke
during heating up.
Heating up
Fill amount for heating up: 2 - 3 logs of max. total 2.5kg
As soon as the combustion chamber temperature exceeds 80°C, the display
changes to green (if the display does not change to green within 10 min of
closing the combustion chamber door, then the heating up procedure has failed,
i.e. the required combustion chamber temperature of 80°C was not exceeded).
Once the display has changed to green, the burn-off control of the heating-
up starts. The heating-up phase takes approx. 60 min depending on the
temperature and fill amount. This time is required to obtain a suitable bed of
embers.
The display changing from green to red flashing indicates the right time to
add wood.
