11. Can paper and wood be used as fuels on the decoflame
®
fireplace?
No, you may
only
use bioethanol – we recommend a purity of not less than 96% but not more
than 97.5%.
12. How can the flame be extinguished when the fireplace is lit?
Ideally, and as recommended, you allow
all
of the bioethanol in the burner to be burnt. Should
you extinguish the fire at a time when there is still bioethanol left in the burner, please
ONLY
use the following method: place the hole in handle supplied with your fireplace on the stud of
the burner lid and slide the lid to a closed position by pulling it towards you in
one decisive
continuous
movement.
13. What shall I do if I have overfilled the burner?
DO NOT
light the burner! Lift the burner out of its safety chamber (wear rubber gloves and
reach into the burner opening grabbing its top plate) and empty part of the bioethanol into a
container (bucket, bowl or similar – you can discard it into the toilet or kitchen sink and flush it
away with water as it is only alcohol) until the burner is only filled up to the max. level
indicator. Dry off any bioethanol from the top and the outside of the burner. Then use kitchen
paper to dry off any liquid from the safety chamber. Re-insert the burner into the safety
chamber. Remove the rubber gloves and light the burner.
