unless absolutely necessary. Make sure the
room is well-ventilated and open the windows
and outside doors. If needed, use a fan for
faster air circulation.

heating operation, you may notice an odour for a short period
of time the next time the stove is used as well.
14. Lighting the Fire
The fi ring up phase should be as short as possible, since
higher emissions can occur during this phase.
The slider settings described in Table 1 and 2 are recommen-
dations that were determined under conformance testing con-
ditions, in compliance with the relevant standard. Depending
on the weather conditions and the draught capability of your
chimney, accordingly adjust the slider positions for your Tula to
the local conditions.
NOTE!
The Tula may only be operated when the fi re
box door is closed; the fi re box door may
only be opened to add fuel.
WARNING!
Never use spirits, petrol, or other fl ammable
fl uids to light the stove.
