Slide the valve in the ue gas pipe  open. Slide the

Lighting the stove for the rst time

Discolouration of walls, ceilings and grates
!
The walls, ceilings and grates may show some discolouration after lighting your hearth. This is caused
by the dust particles that burn in the convection cover. This is a natural process for which WANDERS
cannot be held responsible. To minimize discolouring we refer to the advice given for atmospheric
hearths. Your installer can give you more information about this.
When you light the Black Diamond for the rst time, the hearth must still 'anneal' and temper itself. The unit
has a heat resistant lacquer which must burn in the stove at temperatures above 400 °Celsius. This will happen
during the rst few times of lighting the stove and temperatures rise to 600 °C. Though this may give an
unpleasant smell, it is otherwise harmless. It is advisable to keep the stove burning with limited fuel for at
least 6 hours when lighting the stove for the rst 4 or 5 times. Air the room well when the stove is burning.
Make sure that any cooking hood is not turned on when the stove is burning; a cooking hood extracts the
combustion air that the stove needs.
Some deposit may form on the glass panes of the stove when you 'anneal' your hearth. You can easily remove
this deposit with a damp cloth after the stove has cooled down. You can also use some cleansing agent for
ceramic rings. Please make sure you do not leave any nger marks on the clean glass. Finger marks burn into
the glass and cannot be removed later.
Newly-built house or recently renovated?
!
It is advisable to wait six weeks before lighting the stove in a newly-built house that has recently been completed, or in
a space that has recently been renovated drastically. The walls and ceilings still contain gases, softeners and moisture
from plasterwork or paint. The warm air-streams may discolour the dust particles in the space which may stick to
walls and ceilings. Even the moisture in the walls and ceilings will become warm and may cause yellow stains.
