3 - USING THE STOVE

Once your stove has been installed and
connected to the chimney, you are ready to
light the fire.
Although your stove is easy to use, the
combustion process
complicated, as it involves several factors and it
takes time and experience to understand the
process.
Before lighting your stove for the first time,
please take time to become familiar with the
different control systems and parts of the unit,
how to choose the wood, how to light it and use
it on a daily basis.
ALWAYS KEEP IN MIND that the stove generates
heat and, therefore, keep children, clothing,
furniture... at a distance to prevent burns from
direct contact with the appliance.
Below, we have included some advice on your
stove and on its use. Please read with care.
HANDLES

clockwise direction until the open position
("Ten To" position on the clock) and gently pull
outwards.
To close it, keep the lever in the open position
("Ten To" position on the clock) close the door,
by exerting a slight pressure and turn the lever
gently in an anti-clockwise direction until the

FIRST LIGHTING UP
Important at first start: may come off a few
drops of condensed water from the stove,
produced by the humidity of the environment
where the stove was stored.
It is very important that the first time the heater
is lit, it is done so slowly.
This is for the following reasons:
a) Stabilise cast iron parts.
b) Harden the joint sealant putty.
Advise:
• We recommend that the first loads of fuel be
small.
• To generate draw, heat the chimney by
introducing some burning paper in the gap
between the front and the deflector,
directing it toward the chimney.
• While lighting for the first time, ensure the
room where the heater is located is well
ventilated as the paint work may let off some
fumes.
• Keep the stove on for a few hours at this
intensity.
