through the filling door on the side, as long as there are no more flames visible. Always open the door
in a gentle manner.
If necessary you can keep the filling door open for a little while until the flames flare up. After 3 minutes,
seal off the door firmly and adjust the air control a little to the middle. The nominal position is now

a detriment effect on the life expectancy of your stove. Please respect all maximum quantities as
prescribed in chapter 2 of this manual.
