General use
On the right side of the fire door is the door latch. Use the handle provided, click it into the latch and pull
the latch towards you to open the door. Push the latch away from you to close the door.
The appliance may only be used when the fire door is closed. The stove doors must also be closed when
the appliance is not in use.
The stove temperature can be high. To operate the air sliders and door, always use the cold
handle provided, as well as heat-resistant gloves.
Sometimes smoke recoil has a cause other than poor ventilation. Perhaps the type of wood causes strong
smoke. The duct then cannot handle the amount of flue gases. Or maybe you are burning the right wood,
but there is a narrowing of the pipe or flue. If you are in doubt about the cause, feel free to contact your
dealer.
If you obstruct the oxygen supply to the fire too much, the combustion will be incomplete and many harmful
substances will be released. To avoid the negative consequences of this (e.g. soot and tar formation), it is
best to let the stove burn at full power for half an hour each time it is used.
Also avoid adding fuel excessively. As a result, too much heat is released and the temperature inside the
stove can rise too high.

AINTENANCE
Generally speaking the stove should undergo a thorough maintenance at least once a year if the appliance is
used frequently. We recommend carrying out smaller maintenance work such as removing ashes and
cleaning the glass at more regular intervals. Note that the stove may only be cleaned when it is cooled
down.
Removing ashes
Depending on the amount of ashes, the ashtray should be emptied regularly. After many hours of firing,
there is of course the necessary ash left. Leave the ash in the stove for as long as possible. Only when the
ash layer blocks the primary air holes in the front and back of the combustion chamber, scoop it out. This
should be done with a steel shovel and bucket, because even after a few days the ash can still smoulder.
Ash from clean and dry wood is a natural product. So you can use it as a soil improver.
Cleaning the flue
Flue dust and ashes must be removed from the smoke discharge duct (between the cleaning hatch and the
back plate) every year.
Cleaning painted surfaces
Dust the remaining ashes from the painted parts using a soft hand brush or cotton cloth. Never
wash the appliance with water! This can cause rust.
