  FIRING AND REFILLING WITH WOOD

Open a window near the tile stove, if there is negative 

pressure in the house. Leave the window open, until the 

fire starts to burn normally. 

Open the flue gas damper completely.

Light the fire in the following way:

1.

   Open the glass door and put in some crumpled 

newspaper.

2.

   Put in about 1.7 kg of kindling, standing vertically 

against the hearth's rear wall.

3.

   Open the air supply control completely, i.e. in the 

position 

MAX

 (see illustration below).

4.

   Light the fire.

5.

   Close the glass door, once the fire has started burn

-

ing properly.

6.

   Once the kindling has burnt and formed an ember 

bed, it is time to add some wood. Open the door 

carefully, to prevent smoke from entering the room. 

Put in approx. 3 logs (equivalent to approx. 1.7 kg 

of chopped wood). Close the door, once the fire has 

started burning properly and small flames appear.

7.

   Switch the air supply control to the 

NORMAL

 posi-

tion (see illustration below).

NOTE! 

The brass outer doors must be completely open 

during firing – otherwise, they may be discoloured by the 

radiant heat from the fire.

  REMOVAL OF SOOT AND MAINTENANCE

Soot must be removed at least once per season.

The cleaning covers are placed at the bottom on each 

side of the tile stove. They make it possible to clean the 

front  and  rear  flue  on  each  side  using  a  suitable  flue 

brush. To prevent soot from spreading into the room, you 

should cover the soot door with a cloth or the like during 

soot removal.

For removal of soot from a chimney connection sleeve 

with rear connection, remove the upper cleaning cover 

as well as the chimney connection sleeve's soot door. If, 

in addition, the chimney lacks its own cleaning cover, the 

chimney's soot must be raked out the same way as above.

The soot from the chimney and the connections should 

be removed by a chimney sweep.

If the glass becomes sooty, it is best to use a stove cleaner 

or a special soot remover, which are available for pur

-

chase from your local stove dealer. Never use detergents 

containing abrasive materials. This will damage the glass.

TIP! Soot stains on glass are easily removed as follows:

1.   Moisten a piece of soft kitchen paper with water.

2.   Rub some ash from the hearth onto the kitchen paper.

3.   Remove  the  soot  stain  by  rubbing  with  the  kitchen 

paper.

When removing ash, take care to place the ash in a 

metal container. Check very carefully that there are 

no embers left in the ash before you throw it away.

Empty the ash at least once a week during daily firing.

IMPORTANT! In the event of a chimney fire, the hearth 

doors and the air supply controls must be closed. If 

necessary, call the fire brigade.

After a chimney fire, the chimney must be inspected and 

approved by a certified chimney sweep before the tile 

stove can be put into use again.
