CONTINUOUS OPERATION

It is important to obtain as high a temperature as possible in the combustion chamber. This results in best possible use of the

stove and fuel, as well as achieving clean combustion. In this way you will avoid build-up of soot on the combustion chamber

lining and glass pane. During operation, you should not see any smoke; just a movement in the air that indicates combustion is in

progress.

¬ After completing the lighting phase, you should have a good layer of embers in the stove; you can then start operation of it

properly

¬ Add 3-4 pieces of wood at a time: they should be about 0,5 kg in weight and about 30 cm long

NOTE: The wood must catch ﬁre quickly. This is why we recommend setting the combustion air ﬂow fully open. Operating the

stove at too low a temperature and with too little the combustion air can lead to gases igniting, which can damage the stove.

¬ When adding wood, always open the glass door carefully to prevent smoke escaping

¬ Never add wood, while the fire is burning nicely

WARNING ABOUT OVER-FIRING

If the stove is continiously ﬁred with larger amounts of wood than recommended and/or receives too much air, this can cause

a heavy heat development liable to damage both stove and the surrounding walls. We therefore recommend that you always

observe the max. recommended amount of fuel (See under ”Technical Data”).

FIRING IN THE SPRING OR AUTUMN

In the spring/autumn transition period, where there is less need for heating, we recommend you light the stove “top down” once,

perhaps adding just two pieces of wood to ensure that the combustion chamber lining burns clean again.

GENERAL NOTES

PLEASE NOTE! Parts of the wood-burning stove, especially the outer surfaces, become hot during use. Due care should be

exercised.

¬ Never empty ashes into a ﬂammable container. Ashes can contain glowing embers long after you ﬁnish operating the stove.

¬ When the stove is not in use you can close the dampers to avoid a draught through the stove.

¬ If the stove has not been used for some time, you should check the ﬂue passageways for potential blockages before relighting.

NOTE: Never place ﬂammable material in the radiation zone of the stove!

THE FUNCTION OF THE CHIMNEY

The chimney is the wood-burning stove’s motor; its performance determines how well your stove will work. The draught in the

chimney creates negative pressure in the wood-burning stove. The negative pressure draws the smoke out of the stove and takes

in air through the combustion air damper to fuel the combustion process. Combustion air is also used for the airwash system

that keeps the glass clear of soot.

The draught in the chimney is created by the difference in temperature inside and outside the chimney. The higher the differ-

ence in temperature, the better the draught. This is why it is important that the chimney reaches operating temperature before

you reduce the damper settings to restrict combustion in the stove (a brickwork chimney will take longer to reach operating

temperature than a steel chimney). It is very important that the operating temperature is reached as quickly as possible on days

when the draught in the chimney is poor due to unfavourable wind and weather conditions.

You need to get a few ﬂames going as quickly as possible. Chop the wood extra thin; use an extra ﬁre lighter etc.

¬ After longer periods without use, you must check the chimney ﬂue for blockages.

¬ You can connect several units to the same chimney. You should however ﬁrst check the relevant regulations in this respect.

CHIMNEY FIRE

In the event of a chimney ﬁre, keep the stove door, ash drawer, and all dampers on the stove closed. In an emergency, call the ﬁre

service.

¬ We recommend that you get a chimney sweep to check the chimney before using the stove again.
