4. IMPORTANT INFORMATION
General warning and safety information
Observance of the introductory general warning information is
imperative�
Q
Read the entire manual thoroughly before installing and putting
the stove into service� Observe the national provisions and laws
as well as the regulations and rules applicable locally�
Q
RIKA stoves should only be installed in rooms with normal humidity
(dry areas according to VDE 0100 Part 200)� The furnaces are not
splash water protected and may not be installed in wet areas�
Q
Only approved transport equipment with sufficient load carrying
capacity may be used with your heating appliance�
Q
Your heating appliance is not suitable for use as a ladder or
stationary scaffolding�
Q
The burning of fuel releases heat energy that lead to extensive
heating of the stove surfaces, doors, door and operating handles,
glass, flue pipes and possibly the front wall� Refrain from touching
these parts without appropriate protective clothing or equipment
e�g� heat-resistant gloves or means of operation (operating
handle)�
Q
Make your children aware of this particular danger and keep
them away from the stove during heating�
Q
Only burn approved heating materials�
Q
The combustion or introduction of highly flammable or explosive
materials such as empty spray cans etc� in the combustion
chamber and storing them near the stove is strictly prohibited
due to the danger of explosion�
Q
No light or inflammable clothing is to be worn when post-heating�
Q
Use the heat-resistant gloves supplied to open the doors of your
stove�
Q
Make sure that no embers fall out of the combustion chamber
onto inflammable material�
Q
Placing non-heat resistant objects on the stove or near it is
prohibited�
Q
Do not place clothing on the stove to dry�
Q
Laundry racks etc� must be placed at a sufficient distance to the
stove – ACUTE DANGER OF FIRE!
Q
When your stove is burning, the use of highly inflammable and
explosive materials in the same or adjacent rooms is prohibited�
Q
If the stove is heated in continuous operation, the cleaning
intervals are shorter� Increased wear, especially of the thermally
stressed parts, is the result� Please therefore strictly follow the
requirements for cleaning and maintenance!
Note
Waste and liquids may not be burnt in the stove!
Note
To prevent your stove from overheating of the internal components,
do never cover the convection fins!
Note
CAUTION when filling the pellet container� The opening of the pellet
container is sufficiently dimensioned to ensure easy filling� Take
great care that no pellets drop to the convection fins and the hot
stove body� This can cause a lot of smoke�
Tip
Therefore we recommend refilling the pellet container at a cold
stove�
Note
Your stove will expand and contract during the heating and cooling
phase� This can sometimes lead to slight bending or cracking
noises� This is normal and is no reason for a complaint�
First heating
The stove body, just as various steel parts, cast iron parts and the
flue pipes are painted with a heat resistant paint� During the first
heating the paint dries out completely� This may cause a slight smell�
Touching or cleaning the painted surfaces during the curing should
be avoided� The hardening of the paint is finished after the first
heating with high power�
Safety distances
Note
In the inside space the pellet stove insert must be surrounded by
incombustible materials�
The following safety clearances must be observed in the inside
space:
b > 5 cm, c > 5 cm
The following safety clearances must be observed from the front:
a > 40 cm (to non-combustible objects)
a > 80 cm (to combustible objects)
Note
When being installed in a recess, the overhang may be a maximum
of 20 cm�
