Lighting Instructions
The damper
• The damper is opened by moving the control to the right.
• Close the damper when the fireplace is not in use to prevent the room air
flowing out and condensation building up in the chimney.
• Never close the damper before the embers have burnt out.
Your Contura fireplace is designed to provide secondary heating in your
home. It is important that the correct amount of wood is used, especially
when lighting. If you are lighting the fire for the first time, you should use a
set of scales to see how much 1,7 kg kindling is. Also check what the normal
and maximum weights look like.
The fireplace may only be lit with the door closed.
Always open the door carefully and slowly to prevent blow back because of
the changing pressure in the firebox.
Combustion is affected by the draft in the chimney and the quality of the
wood. Achieving the correct setting for the combustion air damper, suitable
size and amount of wood usually takes a few attempts.
