SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1. The stoves are tested to EN 13240 (see identification plate).
2. For installation and for flue gas connections, the requirements of the Fire Regula-
tions (FeuVO in Germany) apply, as well as local building regulations such as the
following technical standards DIN 18896, DIN 4705, EN 13384, DIN 18160, EN
1856-2 and EN 15287. In order for the stove to function correctly the chimney to
which you want to connect the stove must be in good condition.
3. Before first use and before connecting to the chimney, you must read the Instruc-
tions for Use carefully and inform the local authority responsible for approving heat-
ing systems.
4. While installing the stove you are recommended to wear clean cotton gloves, in
order to avoid leaving fingerprints which can be difficult to remove afterwards.
5. In the interests both of clean air, and of the safe functioning of the stove, the fuel
quantities listed in the Instructions for Use should never be exceeded, and the doors
of the stove must be shut during use to avoid the risk of overheating, which can lead
to damage to the stove. Damage due to this cause is not covered by the guarantee.
6. The stove doors must remain shut at all times while the stove is in use.
7. Permitted fuels are:
- Natural chopped firewood (up to 33 cm max. in length)
- Lignite (brown coal) briquettes (see permitted fuels in the Instructions for Use)
8. Never use liquid fire starters. Use either special firelighters or wood shavings.
9. Burning rubbish, fine chips, bark, coal slack, chips from planing, damp wood or
wood treated with preservative, paper, cardboard or similar is not permitted.
10. The first time the stove is heated there may be some smoke and an unpleasant
smell. Make sure that the room is well ventilated (open windows and doors) and
heat for at least an hour at the maximum nominal heat load. If the maximum tem-
perature is not reached the first time the stove is heated, then there may be further
unpleasant smells at a later date.
11. All controls and settings must be used as indicated in the Instructions for Use.
When the stove is hot, please handle only using the implements or protective gloves
provided.
12. If the stove is not working correctly, or if the chimney is not drawing properly, smoke
may appear when the fire door is opened. It is very important to only open the fire
door slowly, initially just a crack, then wait a few seconds before opening fully. In
addition, before opening the fire door to top up the fuel, make sure that only glowing
material is present: there must not be any visible flames.
13. Do not place any flammable items in the warming drawer or on the surface of the
stove.
14. When in use, all surfaces and particularly the glass doors and handles and other
controls can become very hot. Make children, young people, older people and ani-
mals aware of this danger, and keep them away from this source of heat when the
stove is being used. Use the protective gloves or the implements provided. Children
