Keep the ash bed away from the primary air slots at the front of the fire.
Notes:
Only reload with wood when the previous load has been fully consumed, do not overload the combustion
chamber.
For well insulated houses or forced air ventilation in adjacent spaces, it is advisable to place a ventilation
grid on an outside wall near the equipment of at least 100 cm2 and always be unobstructed. In this way,
you supply the surrounding space with a good source of oxygen so that it does not run out, and the air
masses move in the right direction. As for the air inlet grills, it must be taken into account that they must
be positioned in such a way that their obstruction is not easy. In the case of simultaneous operation with
other heating appliances, sufficient oxygen must be ensured.
Warnings:
This appliance was not designed to work with the door open. Open the door for lighting and reloading
only. Do not open the heater door suddenly or with the smoke control fully or partially closed, as the
combustion chamber may overpressure, causing smoke or even flame out into the room.
Excessive combustion does not necessarily translate into more heating power nor into an increase of
efficiency. Furnacing may also cause irreparable damage to the appliance if carried out for long periods
of time.
In the event of malfunction, immediately extinguish combustion by closing the fuel inlet control and the
smoke control, causing the fire to extinguish by itself due to lack of oxygen. Expose the problem to our
services and / or agents to be resolved
8-Cleaning and Maintenance

flue regularly swept.
Cleaning and maintenance should always be carried out when the

Cleaning

The glass should be kept reasonably clean by the airwash.
In cases where a log has been left too close to or touching the glass, or green wood/kindling has
been used then use a glass cleaner available from your retailer.
Ensure the glass cleaner does not come into contact with the metal parts or the rope seal.
o
When removing excess ash when/as required when fire is cool, place ash in a non-combustible
container with a tightly fitting lid and move outdoors immediately to a location clear of combustible
materials.
