Adding more Bioethanol
Never pour bioethanol onto an active fire or into the fire compartment if it is still
hot!
1. As soon as the fire has gone out or has been extinguished as described under
“Extinguishing bioethanol”, allow the fireplace to cool off for at least 15–20 minutes
with the fire compartment closed.
2. Then refill the fire compartment (for this see “Adding bioethanol”).
3. Ignite the bioethanol as described under “Igniting the bioethanol”.
Extinguishing Bioethanol
Never extinguish the fire with water!
If possible, the fire compartment should always burn until the bioethanol has been
completely used up so that no explosion occurs when reigniting the bioethanol.
Furthermore, one thereby avoids the smell of alcohol spreading in the room.
1. Completely close the fire compartment opening by moving the fire compartment
cover back until it locks into place using the sliding tool.
2. Leave the fire compartment opening closed and wait at least 30 minutes so that the
fireplace is able to cool off.
3. The bioethanol, which is still contained in the fire compartment, must be disposed
of. In so doing, do not dispose of the bioethanol via wastewater ways (toilette, sink,
and the like); rather dispose of it at a collection point for hazardous substances or
the like.
Note: In the event that the fire does not go out, open the fire compartment cover
again and then close it quickly, but without exerting an excessive amount of force.
In the event the flames still do not go out, repeat this step multiple times if
necessary as the flames are “cut off” in this way.
In the event “cutting off” the flames is not successful, close the fire compartment
cover and allow the fireplace to burn with correspondingly reduced flames for
another 15 minutes before you open the fire compartment cover again and then
quickly shut it again.
