•
Adjust the speed changes (going from a normal
speed to a slower speed for example) before
loadings in the embers'combustion stage, to let the
appliance and the smokes' flue progressively
change speed.
•
In order to avoid smoke blowing back and falling
down of the ashes in the room when you reload, the
opening of the door needs to take a few
precautions : half-open the door, wait a little while in
order to activate the draught, then open the door
slowly.
•
The continuous running with a slow speed,
especially in milder weather (unfavourable draught)
and with humid wood, leads to an incomplete
burning which favour bistre and tar deposits :
Alternate slow speeds with some returns to
o
normal speed running period.
Favour uses with small loads.

•
After a running with a slow speed, the window can
get dark because of a slight bistre. This deposit
normally disappears in a higher speed pyrolysis
running.
•
The combustion chamber must be always closed
except when reloading in order to avoid any excess
of smoke.

The air used for the combustion of wood comes
from under the grate when the air intake damper is
open. This air also ensures the cooling of the grate.
It is therefore
performances and to avoid damage of the grate
under the the effect of overheating, it is also
necessary to avoid its obstruction in proceeding in
regular ash removal and the clearing of the ashes.
- The scraper allows to make the ash removal of
the grate (Fig. 8).
- The ashtray- fixed under the grid - is easily
removable by pulling it out thanks to the cold
hand (Fig. 7).
•
The level of the ashes must never reach the cast
iron grate of the appliance.
•
Periodically remove the ashes accidentally spilled
into the ash compartment.

5.4.4 - Safety regulations

•
Never throw water to put the fire out.
•
The window of the appliance is very hot : be careful
you don't get burnt notably children.
•
The appliance gives out important heat through
radiation : don't put materials nor heat-sensitive
objects within a distance inferior of 1,50 m to the
window.
•
Empty the content of the ash pan in a metallic or
inflammable container kept for this use only. The
ashes which look like cold can actually be very hot,
even after some cooling time.
•
Don't place easily inflammable materials in the
environment of the appliance and in the place
where you store wood.
•
Particularly, don't store wood under the appliance.
necessary to get optimal
•
In case of a chimney fire, put the air intake damper
in a closed position.
•
The loading and ash compartment doors must
always be kept closed.
6 - ADVICE ON CHIMNEY-SWEEPING AND
STOVE AND SMOKE FLUE MAINTENANCE

6.1 - Sweeping:

The mecanical sweeping of the smoke flue is
compulsory, it has to be made a few times a year and
one sweeping has to done during the heating period. A
certificate has to be established by the professional.
For sweepings, you'll need to :
•
Remove the deflector (Fig. 10) :
- Dismantle the deflector
if forward.
- Let the back part of the du deflector
and take it out.
- To put the deflector back: proceed in the reverse
way of the dismantling.
•
Check thoroughly the condition of the appliance
paying special
elements : seals and locking components, support
parts (door, frame).
•
Check the condition of the smoke flue and the
connecting pipe : all the connections must show
good mecanical holding and must have kept their
smoke-tight features.
•
Clean the appliance using a brush and a vacuum
cleaner.
If you detect any irregularities : have your appliance or
your installation repaired by a professional.
6.2 – Usual cleaning
•
The appliance must be cleaned using a soft cloth
and soapy water, or an alcohol-free window
cleaning product.
•
Clean the window with a wet cloth and ash. If
necessary use
respecting the instructions for use : start the
cleaning once the appliance is completely cold.
•
Clean regularly the secondary air intake part (Fig.
11).
- Vacuum dust and the particles stuck between
the air guide and the window glass. If necessary
slip a thin blade or a sheet of rigid cardboard
between the air guide and the glass to make the
cleaning easier (clearing of the particles).
These particles block the making of the secondary
air flow which protects the widow from the direct
contact with smokes and complete the the burning
of the wood.
