Safety
7
The device may only be installed above a fireplace
for solid fuels (e.g. coal-fired stove) if:
•
the fireplace has a sealed cover which cannot be
removed. Otherwise, e.g. there is an increased
fire hazard due to flying sparks.
•
the legal and country-specific regulations are
adhered to.
Avoiding risks of injury
•
In order to prevent the risk of falling, use a stable
stepladder for all work on the device, such as e.g.
replacing the filter, installing and cleaning the
device.
•
In order to prevent risks of injury due to falling
parts, use suitable mounting material.
•
In order to prevent cuts due to broken glass, use
suitable protective gloves.
Avoiding the risk of suffocation
If the device and an open fireplace which is
dependent on the room air are operated
simultaneously, gases or waste gases may be
drawn into the room.
•
Make sure that all of the permits required for
operation in your country are available (e.g. those
of the master chimney sweep).
•
Make sure that all standards and guidelines for
operating the device in your country are observed.
•
Ensure an adequate fresh air supply in the
dwelling.
•
Do not allow children to play with film or other
parts of the packaging.
•
Store film or other parts of the packaging in a
location which is inaccessible to children.
Preventing the risk of collapse
•
The necessary wall passage must be created by a
specialist company. Wall passages influence the
building's statics. Improperly created wall
passages may lead to the collapse of the building.
Avoiding environmental damage
•
Dispose of the device and its accessories
according to the legal regulations.
