Igniting Bioethanol
Do not directly ignite the bioethanol!
Only ignite the fire compartment once it has been filled with a sufficient amount of
bioethanol.
1. Dip the tip of the sliding tool in the fire
compartment, which has been filled with
bioethanol.
2. Allow the tip of the sliding tool to drip off
over the fire compartment opening.
3. Using a corresponding elongated lighter,
ignite the wetted tip of the sliding tool at
a sufficient distance to the fireplace. When
doing so, it is recommended you stand to
the side of the fireplace.
4. Move the ignited tip of the sliding
tool towards the fire compartment opening thereby igniting the bioethanol in the
fire compartment. If the flame goes out, repeat steps 1–4 from this section of the
instructions.
It will take approx. 10–15 minutes for the fire compartment to reach the optimal
operating temperature and for the flames to produce the greatest effect.
5. Using the sliding tool, you can reduce the height of the flames by partially closing
the fire compartment opening.
Note: If the bioethanol in the fire compartment cannot be ignited a second time,
it is possible that a significant portion of the alcohol has already evaporated thereby
reducing its ignitability. In such case, it is recommended you wait a few minutes and
then dispose of the bioethanol, which is still in the fire compartment. Do not dispose
of the bioethanol via wastewater ways (toilette, sinks or the like); rather dispose of
it at a collection point for hazardous substances.
