First Use - Saey PEAK Notice D'installation Et D'utilisation

Optimal handling with wood and briquettes
Only dry wood burns efficiently and with low emission. The ideal fire wood is :
Natural :
-
Don't use painted or impregnated wood, nor glued wood or multiplex. Also avoid pressed
wood, which may contain cortex.
All plastics and chemical components can be very toxic when burning and may endanger the
environment, as well as polluting or damaging certain parts of your stove and chimney.
Chopped :
-
Only logs with nice, big surfaces can burn in an efficient and clean way. Smaller logs burn on
the other hand burn very bad and slow. It is a fact that the temperature that arises in these
cases aren't high enough in order to create a beautiful combustion with low emission. They
can be the cause for those dirty windows of your stove.
Dry :
-
Wood with maximum moisture of 20%
Humid wood burns much worse and very impure. In general, dry wood can be obtained by
storing it 2-3 years in a well ventilated area.
When burning with briquettes, use them that consist of clean wood.
Also bear in mind that burning with pressed wood or briquettes, makes them gaining more volume.

6.2 First use

When first using the stove, it is advised to burn on maximal power for a couple of hours. This makes
sure that remaining paint in the can dry out. Possibly smoke can occur and escape. This smoke is
harmless, but to make sure, please vent the rooms sufficiently.
Stay close to your stove in the first hours that it is burning and remove any signs of moisture before it
can burn in the paint. Never touch the stove with your bare hands.
