people under 16 must not use the stove unless supervised by an adult who is
responsible for them.
15. Make sure that the ash pan is always fully pushed in, until it touches the back. Never
remove ashes while still hot (fire risk).
16. In spring and autumn the chimney may no longer draw correctly, so that gases
produced by combustion are not completely removed. The fire chamber should then
be filled with a small quantity of fuel, ideally with wood shavings, and lit under
supervision, in order to stabilise the chimney draught. The grate must be clean.
17. After each prolonged period of use for heating, have the stove checked by a
professional. The flues and pipes for the evacuation of fumes must also be thoroughly
cleaned.
18. If repairs or replacements are necessary, please contact your supplier with the
necessary article numbers and serial numbers in good time. Only original WAMSLER
replacement parts may be used.
19. Work such as installation, setup, commissioning and services, as well as repairs, must
only be carried out by qualified personnel (heating system or space heating
technicians). Intervention by non-qualified persons invalidates the warranty and
guarantee.
20. As the solid fuel oven/stove draws the air required for combustion from the
surrounding room, you must ensure that sufficient air can be drawn in through non-
sealed windows and outside doors. It can be assumed that is this is provided by a
room volume of at least 4 m³ per kW nominal heat capacity. If the volume is less than
this, then air vents can be used to provide access to further air in other rooms (min.
150 cm²).
21. You must ensure that the correct safety distance is maintained from all flammable
components and materials – to the side, rear and front. These distances can be found
in the Instructions for Use or the identification plate.
22. The fire chamber must not be modified.
23. Connection to a chimney whose functional height is less than 4 m, or if multiple stoves
are installed, 5 m, is not permitted. A maximum of two other fires can be connected to
the chimney which is to be connected the stove.
24. If the chimney catches fire immediately close all doors and openings and call the fire
brigade. Do not attempt to extinguish the fire yourself. Afterwards have the chimney
thoroughly checked out by a professional.
25. Solid fuels naturally create soot, so it is always possible that the window glass will
become dirty: this does not mean there is a malfunction.
