Thermotte™
The insulating plates in the burn chamber (FIG 2)
contribute to a high combustion temperature, which
leads to cleaner combustion of the wood and a higher
rate of efficiency. Any fissures in the plates will not
reduce their insulation efficiency.
If new plates are needed, contact your dealer. In case
the Thermotte plates need to be replaced, lift the smoke
baffle (A) in order to remove the sideplates.
A. Smoke baffle
B. Right side plate
C. Left side plate
D. Ash grate
E. Ash tray
F. Bottom plate, two parts
Please note: Wood logs that are too long can cause
strain and crack the plates, due to the tension created
between the side plates.
Please note that the Thermotte plates may release
coloured dust when touched. Avoid touching any cast
iron parts with dust on your fingers. Any visible dust
on cast iron can be brushed off with the glove that is
included.
Door and glass
Should there be any soot on the glass it may be
necessary to clean it. Use dedicated glass cleaner.
(NB! Be careful, detergents can damage the varnish
and gaskets). If different detergents are used they may
damage the glass. A good advice for cleaning the glass
is to use a damp cloth or kitchen roll paper and apply
some ash from the burn chamber. Rub around the ash
on the glass and finish off with a piece of clean and
damp kitchen roll paper. NB! Only clean when the glass
is cold.
Check regularly that the transition between the glass
and the door is completely tight. Possibly tighten the
screws that hold the glass in place - but not too hard, as
this can cause the glass to crack. Periodically, it may be
necessary to change the gaskets on the door to ensure
that the burn chamber is air tight and working optimally.
These gaskets can be bought as a set including
ceramic glue.
CERAMIC GLASS
CANNOT BE
RECYCLED
Ceramic glass should
be disposed of as resid-
ual waste, together with
pottery and porcelain
Recycling of the ceramic glass
Ceramic glass cannot be recycled. Old glass, breakage
or otherwise unusable ceramic glass, must be discarded
as residual waste. Ceramic glass has a higher melting
temperature, and can therefore not be recycled together
with glass. In case it would be mixed with ordinary
glass, it would damage the raw material and could, in
worst case end the recycling of glass. It is an important
contribution to the environment to ensure that ceramic
glass does not end up with the recycling of ordinary
glass.
Packaging Recycle
The packaging accompanying the product should be
recycled according to national regulations.

8. Advice on lighting a fire
The best way to light a fire is with the use of lightening
briquettes and dry kindling wood. Newspapers
cause a lot of ashes and the ink is damaging for the
environment. Advertising flyers, magazines, milk
cartons and similar are not suitable for lighting a fire.
Good air supply is important at ignition. When the flue is
hot the draught increases and door can be closed.
Warning NEVER use a lighting fuel such as
petrol, karosine, alcohol or similar for lighting
a fire. This could cause injury to you as well
as damaging the product.
Use clean and dry wood with a maximum moisture
content of 20% and minimum 16%. The wood logs
should dry for a minimum of 6 months after it is cut.
Humid wood requires a lot of air for the combustion,
as extra energy/heat is required for drying the humid
wood and heat effect is therefore minimal. In addition
this creates soot in the chimney with the risk of creosote
and chimney fire.
Storing of wood
In order to ensure that the wood is dry, the tree should
be cut in winter and then stored during the summer,
under roof and in a location with adequate ventilation.
The wood pile must never be covered by a tarpaulin
which is lying against the ground as the tarpaulin will
then act as a sealed lid that will prevent the wood from
drying. Always keep a small amount of wood indoors for
a few days before use so that moisture in the surface of
the wood can evaporate.
