Ash door
The ash door must remain closed during operation. Otherwise air will enter the combustion chamber
through the ash door in an uncontrollable manner. The ash door may only be opened for the removal of
ashes. Pay attention to the heat and use the heat resistant gloves.
Opening the filling lid
The filling lid can simply be opened by means of the operating
handle.
Controlling combustion air
Combustion air is adjusted by means of the thermostatic
control at the back of the appliance. The air supply is also
adjusted with the help of the sliders above the fire door.
Lighting
1. Set the air supply to its maximum capacity when lighting the fire (thermostat in position 8).
2. Open the fire door and place a fair amount of kindling on the wood grill.
3. Add 2 to 3 firelighters, spread over the kindling wood, in the front and at the back.
4. Then add a few small logs on top.
5. Now light the firelighters.
6. After the stove has been lit, the fire door must be firmly closed.
NOTE Do not open the fire door or the ash tray except when adding more wood.
If there is still a backdraught of flue gases 15 minutes after lighting because of the weather conditions (strong
wind or fog, for example) the fire should be extinguished until the weather improves.
