3.4. LIGHTING
IMPORTANT!
The surface of your device is
protected by a coat of special anti-heat paint that
resists high temperatures. When ligh�ng the stove
for the first few times, the said paint may emit some
fumes. This is normal and is due to the evaporation
of certain components of the paint while it adapts
to the heat. We, therefore, recommend ventilating
the room un�l this phenomenon ceases to appear.
It is very important that the first time the heater is
lit, it is done so slowly. This is for the following
reasons:
• Stabilise cast iron parts. • Harden the joint sealant
pu�y.
We recommend that the first loads of fuel be small
and keep the stove on for a few hours at this
intensity. The stove must be closed at all times
during combustion to prevent smoke from leaking
out. Only open to add fuel.
ATTENTION!
During the operation of the stove,
the metal parts can reach high temperatures. Protect
your hands with fire resistant gloves when touching
these parts.
Use the tool provided to operate the stove’s air
controls, as well as to open the ashpan door.

Steps to light the stove:
1. Be sure the ash drawer is closed and secured.
Slide the Burn Type Lever to the centre position
(See the se�ng on fig. 11).
2.
Open the Burn Rate Knob all the way by turning
to the le�. This knob may be turned manually or by
pressing “ON/HI” on the remote control (op�onal).
(See the se�ng on Fig. 11)
If your stove has the TruHybrid System, open the by-
pass placed in the top inside the stove (Fig. 17).

If you also have an optional dra� control, fi�ed in the
flue above the stove, place the valve open (page 7).
3. Place two or three loosely crumpled sheets of
newspaper in the bottom of the stove. Add a good
amount of dry kindling forming a lose cone forma�on
on the top of the newspaper. Place a few more
loosely crumpled sheets on top of the kindling and
light the bottom paper first, then light the top paper.
The upper fire should preheat the chimney and
create an effec�ve dra� while the lower fire ignites
the kindling. It is advisable to leave the door ajar for
a few minutes to facilitate the igni�on and avoid
condensation, keeping the glass clean. Never leave
the stove una�ended with the door open.
4. Once the cone has collapsed and the kindling
is well charred, add increasingly larger pieces of
wood un�l the fire is ac�vely burning.
5. When the fire is well established, slide the Burn
Type Lever to the top for normal opera�on with
wood (“A”). Then adjust the Burn Rate Knob to the
desired heat output, either manually or with the
remote control. If you have the TruHybrid System,
close the by-pass to allow the flue gases pass through
the catalyst
(Fig. 18) to achieve the maximum
efficiency of the stove. Protect your hands for such
an operation. In addi�on, if you have an optional
dra� control (page 7), you can also regulate
combus�on by opera�ng this control.
