FP12 Mundo - Installation and Operation Manual
4 OPERATING YOUR FIREPLACE
Although the handle is cold, it is best to use gloves to open the door for the shelf which is right above
becomes very hot.
4.1 The use of a fire screen
This fireplace has been tested for use with an open door in conjunction with a fire screen (AC01364, sold
separately). Make sure the fire screen is properly secured on the fireplace to avoid any risk of sparks
damaging your flooring. When the fire screen is in use, do not leave the fireplace unattended so that you
can respond promptly in the event of smoke spillage into the room. Potential causes of smoke spillage are
described in
Section 8: The Venting System of this manual.
OPERATING WITH THE FIRE SCREEN INCREASES THE POSSIBILITY OF GENERATING CARBON MONOXIDE.
CARBON MONOXIDE IS AN ODOURLESS GAS THAT IS HIGHLY TOXIC AND WHICH CAN CAUSE DEATH AT
HIGH CONCENTRATION IN AIR.
4.2 Your First Fires
Two things will happen as you burn your first few fires; the paint cures and the internal components of the
fireplace are conditioned.
As the paint cures, some of the chemicals vaporize. The vapors are not poisonous, but they do smell bad.
Fresh paint fumes can also cause false alarms in smoke detectors. So, when you first light your fireplace, be
prepared by opening doors and/or windows to ventilate the house. As you burn hotter and hotter fires,
more of the painted surfaces reach the curing temperature of the paint. The smell of curing paint does not
disappear until you have burned one or two very hot fires.
Burn one or two small fires to begin the curing and conditioning process. Then build bigger and hotter fires
until there is no longer any paint smell from the fireplace. Once the paint smell disappears, your fireplace is
ready for serious heating.
