14. Lighting the Fire
The firing up phase should be as short as possible, since high-
er emissions can occur during this phase.
The slider settings described in Table 1 are recommendations
that were determined under conformance testing conditions,
in compliance with the relevant standard. Depending on the
weather conditions and the draught capability of your chim-
ney, accordingly adjust the slider positions for your Luno to
the local conditions.
NOTE!
The Luno may only be operated when the fire
box door is closed; the fire box door may only
be opened to add fuel.
WARNING!
Never use spirits, petrol, or other flammable
fluids to light the stove.
