First Fire

Your new RAIS should be run-in gently for top performance and to prevent paint dam-
age, cracks in the firebrick, and excessive wear and tear.  Start with a small fire (never 
overload the firebox) to allow the materials to get accustomed to the higher tempera-
tures, and then gradually increase the intensity. Use up to a maximum of two logs.

For the first few fires you may detect a strange smell that comes from heat treating 
the paint and materials. This is normal and will soon disappear. Just ensure there is 
plenty of fresh air in the room. Furthermore, during the initial heating up and cool-
ing down, the metal may emanate some clicking sounds due to being exposed to the 
large differences in temperature. This is normal as well.

For wood to burn properly, the right amount of air has to be supplied at the right time 
and place. 

Control

If the ashes are white and the combustion chamber walls not covered with soot, the 
air adjustment has been correct and the wood sufficiently dry.

Smoke and carbon monoxide detectors

It is recommended to use smoke and carbon monoxide detectors with any hearth 
product, including this appliance. Follow all manufacturer’s instructions when using 
smoke and carbon monoxide detectors.

Normal activity of loading fuel could result in emissions of smoke. It might be 

necessary to move carbon monoxide detectors, if they are triggered during normal 

useage of the stove.
