air inlet. If the air slide is slid completely to the right, a
small air vent remains open to allow for post-com-
bustion under the baffle plate.

The primary air inlet regulates the air under the grate
(1). The air wash regulates the air in front of the inside
of the glass (2).
The secondary air inlet (3) allows for post-combustion
under the baffle plate.
The combustion air can be removed from the room (A)
or via a vertical (B) or horizontal (B') outside air con-
nection.
Advice
Never burn wood with an open door.
Regularly burn wood with intense roaring fires.
If you burn at a low setting frequently, tar and
creosote may be deposited in the flue. Tar and
creosote are highly combustible substances.
Thicker layers of these substances may catch
fire if the temperature in the flue increases sud-
denly. 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 bet-
ter to burn wood intensely for a few hours
Subject to change because of technical improvements
instead of having a low intensity fire for a long
period of time.
Regulate the air supply using the secondary air
inlet.
The secondary 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
B'
damped down by reducing the air supply, harmful sub-
stances will be released. For this reason, the fire
should be allowed to go out naturally. Keep an eye on
B
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 insulator for
the stove base plate and ensures better combustion.
Therefore, feel free to leave a layer of ash on the stove
base plate.
The flow of air through the stove base plate must not
be obstructed. Remove the excess ash regularly.
1. Open the door of the appliance.
2. Scoop the excess ash from the appliance or use a
special ash vacuum cleaner to remove the excess
ash.
Always use an ash vacuum cleaner; using an
ordinary vacuum cleaner that has not been spe-
cially modified can cause serious damage to
an ordinary vacuum cleaner.
3. Open the hatch in the middle of the stove base
plate and remove the ash under the hatch and in
the ash container.
4. Replace the ash container, close the hatch and
close the door of the appliance.
