Lighting and Firing your WIKING Wood-Burning Stove
The First Firing
The rst time you re your wood-burning stove, you must do so carefully, as all materials need to
adjust to the heat. This means that the stove must be heated slowly, until it reaches its maximum heat
level. Afterwards, you should re a few times so that the stove is thoroughly heated throughout.
Be Careful of the Lacquer
The lacquer used to treat the wood-burning stove will harden the rst 2-3 times the stove is
red, and this can create unpleasant smoke and odours. Ensure therefore that the room is well
ventilated. The door must also be carefully opened; otherwise there is a risk that the seals will
stick to the lacquer.
Warning: The enclosed gloves can scratch the surface paint if the lacquer has not hardened pro-
perly. Be careful not to touch the lacquered surfaces until after the rst 2-3 rings.
Lighting
1. Both the primary and secondary dampers beneath the door are pushed as far to the left as
possible. This completely opens up both primary and secondary air.
2. Stack 8-10 nely split pieces of rewood, corresponding to 1-2 kg, inside the wood-burning stove.
The smaller the sticks, the shorter the time needed for the stove to be heated and for the optimal
combustion temperature to be achieved.
3. Place two relighters between the top layer of kindling. WIKING recommends using high-quality
relighters, as they do not produce smoke or odours.
4. Light the relighters. Keep the door ajar for a couple of minutes until the glass is hot - this
prevents condensation. Then close the door completely.
5. When the rewood is burning well, push the primary damper all the way to the right while slightly
adjusting the secondary damper to get an even and steady combustion.
Warning: The door may only be kept open when lighting, adding rewood or cleaning the
wood-burning stove; otherwise combustion becomes too powerful, which in turn increases the
risk of the stove becoming overheated.
Firing (Adding Firewood)
When there are no more visible ames and only a solid layer of embers remains, more fuel
can be added to the re.
1. Carefully open the door to prevent smoke and embers from escaping.
2. Lay 2-4 pieces of split rewood (approximately 2 kg) on top of the embers.
3. Close the door and completely open the primary and secondary dampers by pushing them to the left.
4. After a short while the ames should are up again. When the rewood is fully ignited, push the
primary damper to the right again while slightly adjusting the secondary damper, until the ames
burn evenly and steadily.
Warning: During combustion, the stove’s surfaces and door become extremely hot
- exercise great caution.
