Whatever the operating mode used (Rated power or Slow combustion), make sure each load of wood lights as soon as it
is placed in the appliance and that it continues to burn. If this does not happen, open the “firing rate” control to the
“lighting” position for a few moments until the wood lights properly:
During the combustion phase of the volatile part of the wood , it is essential to avoid operation without full fire, failing
which the appliance and the chimney flue will be soiled and effluents harmful to the environment and health will be
released into the atmosphere.

Regulation controls:
Systematically use the heat resistant glove supplied with the appliance to operate the controls which can be very hot.
Firing rate control
: Located on the facade, this control is used to modulate the appliance firing rate between “Rated power” and
“Extended combustion”,
Lighting control
: Using the firing rate control beyond the “rated firing rate” position provides additional air for lighting. This position is
reserved for lighting and re-starting operations and must not be used for more than 30 minutes as this may cause damage to the appliance
and its surroundings. The appliance must be kept under surveillance the entire time this position is used.
