4.2 Fuel
The Globe is optimized for, and must only be used with, liquid denatured ethanol – whose burning produces
only carbon dioxide and water vapour, the same components as in the air we breathe out.
Warning! The fuel must not be preheated.
4.2.1 Recommended fuel quality
For Vauni Globe we recommend Vauni ECOFLAME which is the market’s most optimal bioethanol fuel
for use in chimney-free hearths and inserts. This product gives natural, smoke- and soot-free flames with
a neutral aroma, and can be ordered at www.vauni.com. In cases where ECOFLAME is not available, only
liquid denatured ethanol (bio-ethanol) must be used, which is sold under various trade names at building-
supply stores, DIY-stores, petrol stations and large markets (Applies for Sweden – for other markets consult
your distributor).
Denatured ethanol is an inflammable liquid, and therefore must be handled with great care – in Sweden
according to the prescriptions and general advice for handling inflammable liquids (National Inspectorate of
Explosives and Flammables, SÄIFS 2000:2). Handling of larger amounts than 100 liters requires a permit for
handling of inflammable goods (SÄIFS 1995:3). For more information, see www.raddningsverket.se (Applies
for Sweden – for other markets consult your distributor)
Before adding fuel: it is very important that the correct quality of fuel is used – so check again to be sure.
Bio-alcohol in gelatinous form, or ethanol fuel for automobiles such as E85, must not be used under any
circumstances! If non-recommended fuel is used, it can lead to greatly reduced characteristics and constitute
a potential health hazard with risk of personal injury. Faults that arise due to use of incorrect fuel are not
covered by the guarantee. If you feel uncertain, consult with the personnel at the place of sale to ensure
purchase of the right fuel quality.
4.2.2 Refilling with fuel
Warning! Denatured ethanol burns with an almost invisible flame under certain conditions. This may
happen, for example, when the level in the burner is low. Therefore, it is very important that the hearth is
extinguished completely after use, and that it can cool for at least 15 minutes before more fuel is added. To add
fuel in a burning hearth is very dangerous and can cause an explosion.
Note 1! Add fuel when the hearth is about to be used – the burner has a safety function that makes it harder to
start when the fuel has been standing for more than 20 minutes. Read more at point 4 in Section 4.1 Lighting
the hearth.
Note 2! The burner may contain fuel from previous firing. The tank’s total volume is 2 liters. Therefore, do
not add more than is needed according to point 5 below.
The following steps should be taken when adding fuel:
