The majority of air for combustion in the coal setting comes from under the
grate below the fuel. This action reduces the ability of the air wash system and
some blackening of the glass may occur.
When the solid fuel has an even glow over the fuel bed set Air Flow Bar to
desired setting.
Over-Firing
In the event of over firing the stove (flue collar, top of stove or log retainer
glowing red/orange) push the air control in fully (with gloves provided) this will
shut the appliance down. Over-firing will damage the stove and is not covered
under the warranty. Over-firing can be caused by: over filling the appliance
with fuel, burning on maximum setting for prolonged periods, or with the use of
non recommended fuels.
In the event of a chimney fire push the air control in fully to prevent air getting
to the fire and call the fire and rescue services. Do NOT use the appliance or
chimney until inspected by a registered installer/chimney sweep.
If a fire is "uncontrollable" when the air control lever is in check and the door is
closed properly, allow the stove to cool and perform a paper test as outlined
on page 21.
This appliance is designed to radiate heat. Do not stand too close to the
appliance for prolonged periods of time, loose clothing, man made fibres and
soft furnishings are at particular risk of burning.
When using the appliance in situations where children, aged or infirm persons
are present a fireguard must be used to prevent contact and be manufactured
in accordance with BS 8423 fireguards for use with solid fuel appliances.
Chimney Fire Action
If the chimney is thoroughly and regularly swept, chimney fires should not
occur. However, if a chimney fire does occur push the air control lever fully in
turning “off” the stove tightly close the doors of the stove. This should cause
the chimney fire to go out. If the chimney fire does not go out when the above
action is taken then the fire brigade should be called immediately. Do not
relight the stove until the chimney and flue-ways have been cleaned and
examined by a professional.
