“Green wood” and “recovered wood” can eventually cause a chimney fire. 

Prohibited  fuels:

  plastic  bags  liquid  fuels,  waste  materials  and  any  form  of 

bituminous coal or petroleum based coke. 

This may harm the product and pollute 

the atmosphere

. The appliance should never be used as an incinerator. 

3.2 Use 

Odours when using the fireplace for the first time   

Painted  products: 

the  fireplace  may  emit  an  irritating  gas  when  used  for  the  first 

time, and it may smell a little. The gas is not toxic, but the room should be thoroughly 
ventilated.  Let  the  fire  burn  with  a  high  draught  until  all  traces  of  the  gas  have 
disappeared and no smoke or smells can be detected. 

 
Enameled products:

 Condensation may form on the surface of the fireplace the first 

few  times  it  is  used.  This  must  be  wiped  off  to  prevent  permanent  stains  forming 
when the surface heats up. 

Air Control: 

What you do the National and local laws and building 

regulations must be followed. 

Figure 8 

The  amount  of  heat  emitted  by  the  stove  is  regulated  using  two  air  controls.  The 
primary air supply, where air passes up through the riddling grate, is controlled using 
the lower air control and the secondary air (Airwash system), which is supplied to the 
combustion over the glass, is controlled using the upper air control. 
 

3.2.1 Use with Wood 

 

Lighting 

Figure 8 

 
• Slide the top air control to open. Open the lower control. 
 
•  Lay firelighters or rolled up newspapers on the grate with a reasonable quantity, if 
necessary, of dry kindling wood. Place 2 or 3 small logs on top. 
 
• Light the newspaper or firelighters using a long taper and close the door.   
 
• When the fire is burning fiercely, add further logs of a diameter up to 10 cms.
