creosote may be deposited in the flue. Tar
and creosote are highly combustible sub-
stances. Thicker layers of these substances
may catch fire if the temperature in the flue
increases suddenly. By allowing the fire to
burn very intensely regularly, layers of tar and
creosote will disappear.
Low-intensity fires can also cause tar deposits
on the stove window and door.
When the outside temperature is mild, it is
better to burn wood intensely for a few hours
instead of having a low-intensity fire for a long
period of time.
Control the air supply using the air vent.
The air inlet not only supplies air to the fire but
to the glass as well, so that it does not quickly
become dirty.
Open the primary air inlet for the time being if the
air supply by the secondary air inlet is inadequate
or if you want to fan the fire.
Topping up with a few logs regularly is better than
adding many logs in one go.
Extinguishing the fire
Do not add fuel and just let the fire go out. If a fire is
damped down by reducing the air supply, harmful
substances will be released. For this reason, the fire
should be allowed to go out naturally. Keep an eye
on the fire until it has gone out. All air inlets can be
closed once the fire has died completely.
Removing ash
After wood has been burnt, a relatively small amount
of ash remains. This ash bed is a good insulating
layer for the stove base plate and improves combus-
tion. It is a good idea to leave a thin layer of ash on
the stove base plate.
The flow of air through the fire plate must not be
obstructed, however, and no ash may be allowed to
accumulate behind a inner plate. Remove the excess
ash regularly.
1. Open the door of the appliance.
2. Use the scraper (1) to open the ash removal port
(3) in the bottom of the fire compartment: see the
following figure.

3. Scrape the excess ash through the ash removal
port into the ash pan (2) below it.
4. Close the ash removal port.
5. Using the glove supplied, remove the ash pan
and empty it.
6. Replace the ash pan and close the door of the
appliance.

Fog and mist
Fog and mist hinder the flow of flue gases through
the flue. Smoke can blow back and cause a stench. If
it is not strictly necessary, it is better not to use the
stove in foggy and misty weather.
Resolving problems
Refer to the appendix 'Diagnostic diagram' to resolve
any problems in using the appliance.
