INSTRUCTIONS FOR INSTALLATION,

USE AND MAINTENANCE

RAIS RONDO & RAIS MINO 2

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

On first lighting the stove you must be careful not to touch the painted

surfaces and it is MOST IMPORTANT that the door is kept slightly ‘ajar’ in

order for the door seal and sealant to cure.

This will prevent the door seal sticking to the painted body and becoming

damaged.
