bituminous coal or petroleum based coke.

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.
