CHAPALA CHIMENEAS Chimenea Medium Quick Start Manual Download Page 2

•  The Chimenea requires 1.5m 
  clearance from the top of the  
  chimney to any combustible surface  
  above such as a pergola, sailcloth,  
  awning etc.
•  Only use the Chimenea on a non  
  combustible surface (not timber).
•  Ensure the Chimenea is at least 1.5m  
  from any combustible surface.
•  If you have a spark arrestor
  accessory ensure it is in the
  correct position following the 
  instructions supplied.  

•  Follow the correct lighting and fire  
  management advice included in  
  these instructions to ensure that you  
  get the most out of your product.
•  When not in use, ensure Protective  
  cover (Raincoat accessory sold  
  separately) is on correctly or that 
  the unit is stored undercover.
•  After approximately every 5 to 7  
  fires the ash should be removed so  
  the height of the fire is not 
  continually raised.

•  If possible, position the Chimenea  
  where the fire can be seen from  
  inside the house as well as the out 
  door area. 
•  A Chimenea performs better with its  
  back towards any prevailing breeze.
•  To ensure the Chimenea performs  
  correctly check that the chimney is  
  vertical, by viewing both from directly  
  in front and from the side.
