FUME EMISSION:
Properly installed and operated this appliance will not
emit fumes into the dwelling. Occasional fumes from de-ashing and
refuelling may occur. However, persistent fume emission is potentially
dangerous and must not be tolerated. If fume emission persists, then the
following immediate action should be taken:
(a) open doors and windows to ventilate the room. (b) let the fire go out or
eject and safely dispose of fuel from the appliance. (c) check the flue or
chimney for blockage and clean if required. (d) do not attempt to re-light the fire until the case of the fume emission has been identified
and corrected. If necessary seek expert advice
HEAT:
The surfaces of the appliance and the attached fluepipe will become
extremely
hot- a fireguard should be used if children or
the infirm are present. Flammable materials (including fuel) should not be stored near to the appliance. If the Europa Hi-Leg unit is
fitted and used as a log store, logs must not be placed higher than the central 'bridging' member.
