Operating instructions
Tips
During extreme weather conditions (low pressure, fog, etc.) it is advised to keep the
combustion chamber door ajar (with locking) during heating up until the firebox /
draughts and the chimney have reached the operating temperature. The combustion
chamber door must be closed for subsequent operation.
The firebox must be monitored when the combustion chamber door is not closed in
order to intervene if necessary.
Safety instructions
Operate the small basic stove as per these operating instructions and note the
following information on the proper handling of the firebox to ensure efficient and
environmentally friendly heating.
Caution! The stove and stove door with view pane become hot during combustion
and there is a risk of burns. Use a glove to open the stove door.
Do not place combustible objects on or in the direct vicinity of the stove. Maintain a
distance of at least 80 cm between combustible objects and the stove door.
If fireplaces are installed in living areas and the combustion air is taken from the
room where the fireplace is installed, the operator must ensure that the fireplace is
supplied with sufficient combustion air.

Before using the fireplace again, notify your chimney sweep and have the
chimney checked for damage.

Equally, the chimney sweep should determine the cause of the chimney fire and
remedy this.
