When you light the Olaf ECO for the first time, the hearth must still ‘anneal’ and temper itself. The unit has a heat
resistant lacquer which must burn in the stove at temperatures above 400 °Celsius. This will happen during
the first few times of lighting the stove and temperatures rise to 600 °C. Though this may give an unpleasant
smell, it is otherwise harmless. Air the room well when the stove is burning. Make sure that any cooking hood
in the same space is not turned on when the stove is burning; a cooking hood extracts the combustion air that
the stove needs.
Some deposit may form on the glass panes of the stove when you ‘anneal’ your hearth. You can easily remove
this deposit with a damp cloth after the stove has cooled down. You can also use some cleansing agent for
ceramic rings. Please make sure you do not leave any finger marks on the clean glass. Finger marks burn into
the glass and cannot be removed later.
It is prohibited to light the stove with liquids like petrol or spirits. Do not have the cooker hood on in
the room where you operate your stove. Never touch the varnished parts when you heat your stove.
Avoid finger marks
Do not touch the glass of the stove with your fingers. Finger marks will burn into the glass and cannot
be removed later.
Discolouration of walls, ceilings and grates
The walls, ceilings and grates may show some discolouration after lighting your hearth. This is caused
by the dust particles that burn in the convection cover. This is a natural process for which WANDERS
cannot be held responsible. To minimize discolouring we refer to the advice given for atmospheric
hearths. Your installer can give you more information about this.

The stove only burns on wood. Do not put more than 3 to 4 kg of fuel in the stove at the time. Always use clean
and cut logs, which have sufficiently dried. Please see the above list for drying times. Wet wood does not burn
well and gives heavy smoke emission. It may blacken the glass pane of your stove with soot and build up smut
in the flue pipe. This may increase the risk of chimney fire.
