Correct heating up
1� Move the control lever completely to heating-up position � Open the
combustion chamber door and sweep the ashes into the ashtray�
Place left and right two small pieces of chipboard lengthways in the
bottom of the combustion chamber�
2� Place two logs crossways on top of this chipboard�
3� Now place further pieces of chipboard in crosswise layers on top
of the logs and place 2-4 ribs of the RIKA-firelighter on top of the
chipboard� Some uncoated paper can be placed underneath the
chipboard in case there is no firelighter available�
4� Now light the firelighter (or the paper) and close the combustion
chamber door�
Set the control knob for combustion air regulation to middle position
some minutes later�
If the logs are well lit the control knob can be set step by step further
to zero position another few minutes later (depending on draught,
fuel quality and amount)�
Refilling
Note
Use the handle “Cold Hands” or the RIKA heat-resistant glove for
every further addition of wood�
After the first burn-off, add one or two logs (see AMOUNT OF FUEL)
to the blaze� Set the control knob to
heating-up position again until
the wood is well lit�
For optimal combustion, the air regulator should be in the ideal
position between the zero position and the middle position� This
reduces the emission values and increases the efficiency�
Please proceed in the same way for every further addition of wood�
Note
Sometimes a lot of smoke develops when wood is placed on a
low firebed or when there is too less fresh air for combustion� An
explosive gas/air mixture may arise and cause an eventual heavy
deflagration� For safety reasons it is recommended to leave the
combustion chamber door closed and press the control knob at
the rear wall down completely into
heating-up position � If the log
wood is not igniting, start a new heating-up procedure after it
stopped smoking�
