Instructions for use

5.4  HEATING ECONOMICALLY

The most environmentally-friendly and economic way of heating with wood is to have 
your fi re hot but calm. The ash should appear to glow a soft red-orange and should not 
glow like a blacksmith’s fi re. Fires like that burn quickly and intensely, leaving little time 
for complete combustion. 

Your appliance is at its most economical when:
•  Using dry and clean wood (as described further in Chapter 6).
•  Always ensure even combustion. Stoke with the primary air regulator closed. 
  To do this, place the combustion air supply slider in the centre position. 
•  The bed of the fi re should be homogeneous, and the fi re must have easy access to 

air. Position the blocks of wood (loosely and evenly) horizontally on the bed of ash, 
so that they are separate and several  centimetres away from the walls. 

5.5  CLEANING THE WINDOW

After several burning hours, a light deposit may form on the inner side of the window. 
Once the appliance has cooled down, this deposit can be removed using glass cleaner 
or ceramic hob cleaner.

Modifi cation

Do not make modifi cations to your appliance. 
Any alteration to your appliance, of whatever nature, will also invalidate your warranty.

Only open the door for fi lling and lighting the appliance and for removing the ash. Keep 
the door shut at all other times.

 

Continuous stoking with the primary air supply open (combustion air 

 

supply slider is right over to the “ + ” position) (air through the grate) 

 

causes a fi ercely white-hot fi re that can damage the grate and other 

 

parts of the appliance.
