8.3. The Fire Box Door
The Toronto has a vertical fi re box sliding door with a pneumatic spring, which supports
the fi re box door when it is raised and opened and cushions the downward motion when
closing it.
To open the fi re box door, grasp the handle and slide the door upwards until it locks.
After adding the fuel, unlatch the fi re box door by gently pressing the door handle which
causes the fi re box door to slide downwards. To completely close the fi re box door, push it
downwards until it locks.
The Toronto may only be operated when the fi re box door is closed; the fi re box
door may only be opened to add fuel.
9. Initial
Operation
The fi rst time you operate a stove, smoke and odours can develop as organic components
in the coating, sealing strips and lubricants used in the production process burn off.
At a higher combustion temperature, this one-time process can take between 4 to 5 hours.
To achieve this higher combustion temperature, please increase the fuel quantity recom-
mended in Section 11, Adding Wood or Fuel/ Heating with Nominal Thermal Output, by
approximately 25%.
To prevent adverse effects on health, nobody should stay in the room(s) where the stove
is being operated unless absolutely necessary. Make sure the room is well-ventilated and
open the windows and outside doors. If needed, use a fan for faster air circulation.
If the maximum temperature isn’t reached during the fi rst heating operation, you may
notice an odour for a short period of time during subsequent operations as well.
During shipment to you, condensation moisture can accumulate in the stove‘s interior,
which may possibly lead to the appearance of condensation or water on the stove or fl ue
pipes.
Please dry off these damp areas immediately.
The surface of your stove was degreased in a sandblasting machine before being lacquered.
Despite careful and thorough inspection, there may still be some blasting material (small
steel pellets) in the stove body, which can fall out when your stove is being installed.
To prevent any damage, please immediately vacuum up these little steel pellets
with a vacuum cleaner.
The Toronto may only be operated when the fi re box door is closed; the fi re box door may
only be opened to add fuel.
10. Lighting the Fire
The fi ring up phase should be as
short as possible, since higher
emission value rates can occur du-
ring this phase. The slider settings
described in Table 1 are recom-
men-
dations that were determined un-
der testing conditions, in compli-
ance with the relevant standard.
Depending on the weather condi-
tions and the draught capability of
your chimney, accordingly adjust
the slider positions for your Toron-
to to the local conditions.
