STILKAMIN COMPACT FIREPLACE
Before laying the lining
Check that the vertical movement of the door is work-
ing correctly
Before testing
Remove the upper side fixing plates of the refractory
material.
Charging firewood
Pull-up the door using the vertical opening handle and
lifting it up. Use a thermal glove to carry out this op-
eration. After charging the necessary firewood, com-
pletely close the door; do not operate the fireplace
with the door lifted up to avoid damaging the door
seals.
Cleaning glass elements
At the end of every lighting cycle, and according to
the quality of the firewood being used and the draft of
the flue, it could be necessary to clean the unburned
dust present on the glass. Never clean the glass dur-
ing fireplace operation, always wait until it has com-
pletely cooled. To open the door horizontally, pull up
the horizontal opening handle. Carry out the glass
cleaning process using a suitable detergent.
Cleaning of painted surfaces
Never clean the fireplace during fireplace operation,
always wait until it has completely cooled. To clean
painted surfaces use only a smooth cloth slightly
dampened with water.
Cleaning the ash pan
The ash pan tray is located under the grill inside the
combustion chamber. Before removing the ash pan
make sure that the fireplace has completely cooled.
Never remove the ash pan when the fireplace is lit.
To remove the ash pan lift the grid at the centre of
the combustion chamber with the provided tool. Resi-
dues of the combustion can remain very hot also for a
long time after the last use of the fireplace, therefore
empty these residues only in a metal container.
