SAFETY RULES FOR OPERATING YOUR
FIREPLACE MODEL BIS TRADITION
Warning
: The BIS Tradition
must be installed with an outside air kit inlet
, wich is
included with the fireplace.
Warning:
The fireplace must be operated with the doors fully opened or fully closed. If the
doors are left partly opened, smoke may be drawn into the room. If the unit is operated
with the doors fully opened, the optional fire screen must be used.
Warning:
For spectacular fire view and optimum efficiency of your fireplace, we
recommend that the wood be placed as far back as possible in the hearth.
•
Use only Security Fireplace glass doors specifically designed for the model BIS
TRADITION fireplace.
•
When cleaning the fireplace, the ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight
fitting lid. The closed container of ashes should be placed on a non-combustible floor or
on the ground outside the house, pending final disposal. If the ashes are disposed of by
burial in soil or otherwise locally dispersed, they should be retained in the closed
container until all cinders have thoroughly cooled.
Caution:
Do not block the hot air vents on the fireplace as this will cause the fireplace to
overheat.
Caution:
Never use gasoline, kerosene, charcoal lighter fluid or similar liquids to start or
rekindle a fire in this fireplace. Keep all such liquids well away from the
fireplace at all times. Do not burn coal. The sulphur in coal will corrode the
chimney.
Caution:
Keep combustible materials at least 48” (1.2 m) away from the front of the
fireplace opening.
Caution:
Never leave children unattended when there is a fire burning in the fireplace.
Caution:
Use only untreated wood. Wood protectors, metallic paper, coal, plastic, waste,
sulphur and/or oil will damage the fireplace.
Caution:
Do not use the BIS Tradition as an incinerator to burn paper, cardboard or
construction material such as pressed wood, plywood or lumber.
