activate the operating handle and the “cold hand”. The glove is
not fire-proof!
• The stove may only be operated with the fire door closed. The door should
be kept in a cold state is always closed. Only open the door for firing,
refueling and cleaning!
• The fireplace must never be modified! In particular, never insert any instal-
lation components into the combustion chamber, combustion air passages
or flue gas flue that have not expressly approved by Spartherm. Your
fireplace warranty and operating permit will be rendered invalid by any
fireplace modification that has not been approved.
• You may find that extractor hoods, ventilation equipment, etc. installed in
the same room (or linked space) as your fireplace or stove have a negative
effect on the operation of the Kaminofen (such as the release of smoke
into the room). These devices should not be used at the same time as your
fireplace or stove, without first ensuring that the necessary room heating
system precautions have been taken. („2.3.2.3 Room-air-independent“)
• In particular when operating several fireplaces in a single room or linked
space, ensure that sufficient air is available for complete combustion!
• This is a temporary fire area thus, longer continuous burning is not
achieved by piling up the fire repeatedly. Continuous burning without piling
up the fire in-between cannot be achieved even through withdrawal of
the combustion air and is also not permitted. A longer heating period is
achieved by repeatedly restoking the fire with suitable amounts of fuels.
• Only non-combustible materials must be placed in the lower compartment
of the cladding!

3.2.1 COMMISSIONING THE S-THERMATIK MINI
In order to guarantee an optimum and trouble-free operation of the fire area,
the door contact switch must be kept free from dirt and grime.
Before opening the fire door, make sure that the selector switch points to
"automatic" when the combustion air control is switched on. In automatic
operation, the control is activated from the stand-by by opening the fire
door. Now the actuator motor runs the dosing facility for the combustion
air to the position "open". The logs are placed and ignited (see also "4.
Combustion"), the firebox door closed. Then, the combustion air is set and
controlled automatically via the actuator motor on the basis of the flue gas
temperature measured.
If the flue gas temperature is below 50°C after 10 minutes (after closing the
combustion chamber door), the combustion air is closed again by the control
without further signals. The air control lever moves to the left.
Heat-up errors: flue gas temperature is above 50°C but the pre-set minimum
temperature for starting the control is not reached: If the flue gas tempera-
ture then drops below 50°C, the combustion air supply is closed for another
15 minutes. An audible signal sounds. Reasons for a heat-up error could be
that not enough, too much, too large or fuel that is too moist has been added,
or the water heat exchanger pipes are blocked.
If there is a heat-up error and the flue gas temperature continues to increase,
the combustion air supply is throttled depending on the exhaust gas temper-
ature. Thus, the primary air (flows over the grate in the combustion chamber)
is closed first and then the secondary air is reduced (differential combus-
tion air setting). In doing so, the combustion air lever moves from the right
