Adjustment of the burning air inside of the storage door:
Table 1
Never close the one-hand air slide control completely during operation (never push the
lever all the way to the right). This should only happen after the flame has gone out com-
pletely.
IT IS NOT ALLOWED to burn waste, fine chipping, bark, wood handled with preven-
tive chemicals, furthermore paper and cardboard. For kindling please use wood scrap-
ings or grill starter but never use liquid auxiliaries!
The first kindling
•
At the first fire set-up could be a little smoke, but is not dangerous, normal!
In this time, please ventilate the room carefully!
Warning! Upon the first kindling, smoke and unpleasant smell may be gener-
ated. Always ensure the proper ventilation of the room (by opening windows
and doors), and heat the fireplace at maximum rated heating performance. If
with the first heating the maximum temperature is not reached, the above-
mentioned effects may as well arise later on.
Open the door. If the equipment is hot, you can use insulated gloves. Adjust the one-
hand air slide control to the Table 1. Put coal lighter or wood wool into the fire grate,
followed by wood chips. First insert small pieces of wood, and then larger ones, light
them and close the door again. When the wood burns quickly, and leaves sufficient
glowing embers, put additional fuel on the fire. Thereafter, adjust the one-hand air
